OpenCRUD is a GraphQL CRUD API specification for databases
OpenCRUD is a fully GraphQL compliant query language to access and modify data. OpenCRUD provides API flavours for many popular databases including MySQL and MongoDB.
For example, this OpenCRUD query retrieves a single user:
{
user(where: { id: 4 }) {
name
}
}
returns:
{
"user": {
"name": "Mark Zuckerberg"
}
}
GraphQL is a flexible query language supporting many different data access patterns. In practice, simple CRUD operations turn out to be a very common pattern. Standardising this very common pattern enables the community to build tooling specific to the common CRUD style API.
