Folder structure about express-graphql HOT 17 CLOSED

I'm satisfied with this:

I call schema with require('./schema').

from express-graphql.

I've updated an example for better understanding.

from express-graphql.

Thanks for sharing! While throwing everything in a single schema.js file is a great way to get started, it's true that it becomes unwieldy as the schema grows. You example definitely goes a long way towards imposing order.

Have you tried discussing this with other people on the Slack channel? I expect that others are probably exploring this question just like you are, and it would be interesting to share opinions.

from express-graphql.

@wincent I did not discuss this on the Slack, but it's good idea. Thank you.

from express-graphql.

I found this quite natural: https://github.com/mrblueblue/graphql-express-sqlite/tree/master/schema

from express-graphql.

@sulliwane what if you have more complex schema?

from express-graphql.

For example you have next query, which can grow up in future. Will you write all queries in one query file?

query {
 viewer {
  users (first: 10) {
   name,
   address {
    street,
    building,
    neighbors {
     firstName,
     lastName
    }
   }
  } 
 }
}

from express-graphql.

@mikhail-riabokon I create a file for each query that queries the database.

from express-graphql.

@xpepermint your variant is better than mine. Thank you. But I use not only one file for queries.

-- mutations
----- .......
-- types
----- ....
-- queries
----- root.js
----- queries
--------- queryField
------------ index.js
------------ ....
--------- ......

It make's queries more structured, and it's really help me with "queries mess".

from express-graphql.

Sorry for my misunderstanding, is there a question or issue raised here? I'm not sure what you would like from me or this repo.

from express-graphql.

My personal opinion is that splitting large schema up across many files is a good idea and something I would encourage.

The reason the example in this repo builds a schema in a single file is because it is quite small and I wanted to keep the example simple.

from express-graphql.

@leebyron Actually I have asked about folder structure because it's hard to keep everything in one file. That's why we have discussed that, and @xpepermint gave good example and I have updated my, with more than "one level" of queries. So for now, I think this question can be closed, if you do not have any suggestions. Thank you.

from express-graphql.

Okay great.

from express-graphql.

@xpepermint hello how do you do to join the queries in a single object "GraphQLObjectType"

from express-graphql.

@ahelord Just use the usual require commands and make sure you set fields: () => ({}) (a method that returns fields object).

from express-graphql.

@xpepermint I'm sorry, do not ask well.

How do you assemble all the graphql query files in another file to parse the object GraphQLObjectType

from express-graphql.

@mykhailo-riabokon hi

you could have this project

https://github.com/mykhailo-riabokon/express_graphql_folder_structure
