GraphQL Demo App
This project was created to show how we use GraphQLBundle in our projects.
To ilustrate this we created simple backend application witch provide API endpoint for React Example TODO app (source code and how to run it you can see here).
How to run
To run backend you need clone this repo and:
-
If you have docker installed, just type this in project root:
docker-compose up -d
This command will run containers and exposed port will be
8500
.API endpoint:
http://localhost:8500/graphql
-
If you have web stack installed, run:
php bin/console server:start
API endpoint:
http://localhost:8000/graphql
Sending requests
Now you can easily send request to endpoint, for example:
$ curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/graphql'
Response:
{
"errors": [
{
"message": "Must provide an operation."
}
]
}
Now let's specify query in request content:
$ curl -XPOST 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/graphql' -F 'query={ todos { id } }'
Response:
{
"data": {
"todos": [
{
"id": 129
}
]
}
}
GraphiQL extension
To run GraphiQL extension, just open endpoint + /explorer
in your browser, for example http://localhost:8000/graphql/explorer
.
Configuration for React example Todo app
If you have installed React Example TODO application and want to use our endpoint, you need to change endpoint in server.js
