A sample implementation to talk to a GraphQL Server from Swift.
If you have any questions about this implementation or have some tips for improvement/enhancement I'd really appreciate if you'd open an issue. I want this repository to be a reference for all kind of implementations concerning Swift and a GraphQL server. So if there is some case you want to implement and can't find guidance in this repository then let me know and I'll try to update this repo as soon as possible.
This repository contains a GraphQL Server aswell as a Swift client which communicates with this server. To run this demo project you should start the server first.
cd SwiftyQLServer
npm install
npm start
Next you can head to localhost on port 8000 in your browser to see the GraphIQL interface. GraphIQL is like a playground to test your server. Information on the server and the implemented demo queries are described in the README of the SwiftyQLServer folder.
Next you need to start the Swift client. This demo project makes use of some third party dependencies.
To install this dependencies you need to run cocoapods. If you are not familiar with this I recommend reading their Getting Started guide.
cd SwiftQLClient
pod install
open *.xcworkspace
Next you can open the .xcworkspace file and run the application. The demo project inserts a new movie object and afterwards retrieves all available movies to show them in a tableview. For detailed information on the Swift client have a look at the README of the SwiftyQLClient folder.
Contributions are very welcome. Don't be shy and help to improve this project. GraphQL and Swift are both some modern technologies and in my opinion this technology stack can help many people to build better software. If you want to contact me, have ideas for improvement or want to contribute some of your work create an issue and I'll will come back at you as soon as possible.
