Graphql is a query language for apis. Given a query like for the schema in folder test.

{
  shipsselection(ids:[44,45]) {
    id
    commander {
      name
    }
  }
}

You get back json that looks like:

{
  "error": [],
  "data": {
    "shipsselection": [
      {
        "id": 44,
        "commander": {
          "name": "Kathryn Janeway"
        }
      },
      {
        "id": 45,
        "commander": {
          "name": "Jonathan Archer"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

Graphiql type-ahead works, this makes schema introspection a lot nicer.

This graphql implementation is based on June 2018 spec.

• Scalars
• Objects
• Lists of objects/interfaces
• Interfaces
• Unions
• Arguments
• Variables
• Fragments
• Directives
  • Include
  • Skip
  • [?] Custom (Requires changing the graphqld source)
• Enumerations
• Input Objects
• Mutations
• Subscriptions (This needs vibe.d websocket integration)
• Async execution (when used with vibe.d blocking resolver are async by default)

• Arguments of correct type
• Default values of correct type
• Fields on correct type
• Fragments on composite types
• Known argument names
• Executable Definition
• Known directives
• Known fragment names
• Known type names
• Lone anonymous operations
• No fragment cycles
• No undefined variables
• No unused fragments
• No unused variables
• Overlapping fields can be merged (this is done during execution)
• Possible fragment spreads
• Provide non-null arguments
• Scalar leafs
• Unique argument names
• Unique directives per location
• Unique fragment names
• Unique input field names
• Unique operation names
• Unique variable names
• Variables are input types (this is actually a strange requirement)
• Variables in allowed position
• Single root field

• __typename
• __type
  • name
  • kind
  • description
  • fields
  • interfaces
  • possibleTypes
  • enumValues
  • inputFields
  • ofType
• __schema
  • types
  • queryType
  • mutationType
  • subscriptionType
  • directives

• Query AST cache
• Json to resolver argument extractor
• SQL query generation from AST
• Custom Leaf types (e.g. GQLDCustomLeaf!(std.datetime.DateTime))

Thank you to graphql-dot for the excelent list of features

The Documentation is still WIP, please have a look at the vibe.d project in the test folder. This file gives a good overview on how to use graphqld with vibe.d.
