json-to-graphql-query

This is a simple module that takes a JavaScript object and turns it into a GraphQL query to be sent to a GraphQL server.

Mainly useful for applications that need to generate graphql queries dynamically.

Installation

npm install json-to-graphql-query

Features

• Converts a JavaScript object to a GraphQL Query
• Supports nested objects & arguments
• Supports JSON input types for arguments (see arguments example below)

Usage

jsonToGraphQLQuery( queryObject: object, options?: object )

Supported options:

• pretty: boolean - Set to true to enable pretty-printed output

Simple Query

import { jsonToGraphQLQuery } from 'json-to-graphql-query';

const query = {
    query: {
        Posts: {
            id: true,
            title: true,
            post_date: true
        }
    }
};
const graphql_query = jsonToGraphQLQuery(query, { pretty: true });

Resulting graphql_query

query {
    Posts {
        id
        title
        post_date
    }
}

Query with arguments

import { jsonToGraphQLQuery, EnumType } from 'json-to-graphql-query';

const query = {
    query: {
        Posts: {
            __args: {
                where: { id: 2 }
                orderBy: 'post_date',
                status: new EnumType('PUBLISHED')
            },
            id: true,
            title: true,
            post_date: true
        }
    }
};
const graphql_query = jsonToGraphQLQuery(query, { pretty: true });

Resulting graphql_query

query {
    Posts (where: {id: 2}, orderBy: "post_date", status: PUBLISHED) {
        id
        title
        post_date
    }
}

Query with nested objects

import { jsonToGraphQLQuery } from 'json-to-graphql-query';

const query = {
    query: {
        Posts: {
            id: true,
            title: true,
            comments: {
                id: true,
                comment: true,
                user: true
            }
        }
    }
};
const graphql_query = jsonToGraphQLQuery(query, { pretty: true });

Resulting graphql_query

query {
    Posts {
        id
        title
        comments {
            id
            comment
            user
        }
    }
}
