GraphQL Config

The easiest way to configure your development environment with your GraphQL schema (supported by most tools, editors & IDEs).

• website: https://graphql-config.com

GraphQL Config file

schema: ./schema.json
documents: ./src/components/**/*.jsx

Usage

Install:

  yarn add graphql-config
  npm install graphql-config

Use:

Very basic outline in TypeScript:

import {loadConfig} from 'graphql-config';

async function main() {
  const config = await loadConfig({...});

  const schema = await config.getDefault().getSchema();
}

The ... expression in the loadConfig function is a placeholder for a LoadConfigOptions object; leaving this space empty will pass defaults.

Here is a more robust, working example using a generate extension from the GraphQL CLI Backend Template:

const config = await loadConfig({
    extensions: [() => ({ name: 'generate'})]
});

const generateConfig = await config!.getDefault().extension('generate');

...
  
const schema = makeExecutableSchema({
    typeDefs,
    resolvers
});
