graphql-example-apps's Introduction

example-apps

How to use:

Create your heroku app without an access-key
Initialize directory for Hasura GraphQL Engine

hasura init <app-name>

cd into and edit config.yaml to update the endpoint
Run pg_dump to dump the required schemas

pg_dump -h host -d database -U user --attribute-inserts -n schema1,schema2 > migrations/1_init.up.sql

Export metadata by running:

hasura metadata export

Commit all your changes and push to git.
Add [email protected] as collaborator (Important)

heroku access:add [email protected] --app <app-name>

Buildbot Workflow (this will happen automatically every 30mins):

Clone the examples-apps repo
Reset postgresql database by running:

heroku pg:reset --app <app-name> --confirm <app-name>

Restart the app so that graphql-engine is initialized

heroku restart --app <app-name>

Apply the migrations by running:

hasura migrate apply

Apply the metadata by running:

hasura metadata apply

Optional files:

A README that describes your app
A queries.graphql file that lists your sample GraphQL queries that GraphiQL will automatically be loaded with

# Insert author
mutation {
  insert_author(objects: [{name: "natwarlal"}] {
    returning {
      id
    }
  }
}

# Query author
query {
  author {
    id
    name
  }
}

What is the point?

A script will refresh all the databases every 30mins for all the example apps (it will run the migrations in the migrations directory)
This way you can safely share the Hasura GraphQL engine link with whoever and put it wherever you want, like in your blogpost or on the Hasura website or in a forum or on quora
