Port of graphql-relay-js about graphql-php HOT 15 CLOSED

I'd be happy to do so, but realisticly - can't provide any timeframes on when this will be done. Contributions are welcome if you get there before me!

Separate repo is another option.

Thanks for the reply! I'll definitely do a pull request if I get there first, but I'm much more of a novice at PHP. Thanks for this library! I'm currently testing using it with out Laravel backend.

from graphql-php.

I've already done this with a bit help from graphql-lavarel. Here are few things missing that I've done:

1. [MOST IMPORTANT] a function to export a schema.json file for RelayJS. I'm currently using a really BIG QUERY to generate it.
2. NodeInterface
3. tool to generate connectionTypes and mutationTypes

from graphql-php.

@arec about RelayJS schema - use query from GraphQL\Type\Introspection::getIntrospectionQuery() to generate schema.json. It's a regular introspection feature of GraphQL.

I currently do it via custom node-js script that uses same introspection query from graphql-js, in case if someone is interested:

#!/usr/bin/env babel-node --optional es7.asyncFunctions

import fs from 'fs';
import path from 'path';
import { introspectionQuery } from 'graphql/utilities';
import rp from 'request-promise';

var options = {
    uri: 'path-to-your-graphql-endpoint',
    method: 'POST',
    form: {
        query: introspectionQuery
    }
};

console.log('Requesting schema from', options.uri);

rp(options)
    .then((result) => {
        var fname = path.join(__dirname, '/schema.json');
        console.log('Successfully retrieved schema (' + (result||'').length + ') . Writing to ' + fname);

        fs.writeFileSync(
            fname,
            result
          // JSON.stringify(result, null, 2)
        );
    })
    .catch((result) => {
        console.error(result);
    });

Wanted this to be integrated with JS workflow, hence JS version vs PHP.

from graphql-php.

Great thanks. Never notice that REALLY BIG QUERY is right there!

@arec, could you post a gist or something with your code for the NodeInterface, connectionTypes, and mutationTypes so I could see how you are doing it?

from graphql-php.

@arec +1, I'd really like to see what you've done!

from graphql-php.

Does anyone have a solution or workaround here? I would really like to play around with graphql and relay, but can't seem to get it working with the current package.

from graphql-php.

@Gugudesaster Tools in https://github.com/graphql/graphql-relay-js are simple helpers around GraphQL system.

They do not provide special structures or algorithms - they just slightly simplify creating GraphQL types specific for Relay. You should be able to create such types even without those helpers.

Can you share what exactly blocks you?

from graphql-php.

Also check out Relay specs for GQL types: https://facebook.github.io/relay/docs/graphql-relay-specification.html#content

from graphql-php.

FYI: I'm currently working on an exact port of https://github.com/graphql/graphql-relay-js to PHP based on this repository here. Should be there soon...

from graphql-php.

@ivome That's great! When you're done - post the link here to your repo and I'll add it to Readme.

from graphql-php.

@ivome Nice! Can't wait to see what you come up with.

@vladar Thanks for this awesome library. Currently I've been using these Laravel specific packages based off of your port:

• GraphQL: https://github.com/Folkloreatelier/laravel-graphql
• Relay helpers: https://github.com/nuwave/laravel-graphql-relay

You might want to add those to the Readme as well.

from graphql-php.

I'm not done yet, but I just published the repo: https://github.com/ivome/graphql-relay-php

The basic helper functions are all in place along with their tests. There are still a few things left to be done. Especially documentation is lacking. If someone wants to help, check out the issues: https://github.com/ivome/graphql-relay-php/issues

from graphql-php.

Nice! Will throw away my current hackish helpers and use your repo instead.

Added section to Readme on Complementary tools. Guess I can finally close this issue %)
