broccoli-graphql-filter

Build Status

A broccoli filter that converts graphql files to an es6 module exporting an AST representation of the query.

Installation

npm install --save broccoli-graphql-filter

Configuration

Usage

Given the following .graphql files:

my-query.graphql

# import * from "./my-fragment.gql"

query myQuery {
  foo {
    ...MyFragment
  }
}

my-fragment.graphql

fragment MyFragment on Foo {
  hello
}

the filter will output the following JS:

my-query.js

const doc = {
  kind: 'Document',
  definitions: [
    {
      kind: 'OperationDefinition',
      operation: 'query',
      name: {
        kind: 'Name',
        value: 'myQuery'
      },
      variableDefinitions: [],
      directives: [],
      selectionSet: {
        kind: 'SelectionSet',
        selections: [
          {
            kind: 'Field',
            name: {
              kind: 'Name',
              value: 'foo'
            },
            arguments: [],
            directives: [],
            selectionSet: {
              kind: 'SelectionSet',
              selections: [
                {
                  kind: 'FragmentSpread',
                  name: {
                    kind: 'Name',
                    value: 'MyFragment'
                  },
                  directives: []
                }
              ]
            }
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ],
  loc: {
    start: 0,
    end: 77
  }
};
export default doc;
import dep0 from './my-fragment.gql';
doc.definitions = doc.definitions.concat(dep0.definitions);

my-fragment.js

const doc = {
  kind: 'Document',
  definitions: [
    {
      kind: 'FragmentDefinition',
      name: {
        kind: 'Name',
        value: 'MyFragment'
      },
      typeCondition: {
        kind: 'NamedType',
        name: {
          kind: 'Name',
          value: 'Foo'
        }
      },
      directives: [],
      selectionSet: {
        kind: 'SelectionSet',
        selections: [
          {
            kind: 'Field',
            name: {
              kind: 'Name',
              value: 'hello'
            },
            arguments: [],
            directives: []
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ],
  loc: {
    start: 0,
    end: 39
  }
};
export default doc;

Import Syntax

Imports of fragments from other locations are specified using comments in a format compatible with a subset of graphql-import.

To bring all identifiers in a specific module into scope, you can use *:

# import * from 'path/to/module'

To only import specific identifiers, you can write them out separated by commas:

# import Foo from 'path/to/foo'
# import Bar, Baz from 'path/to/bar-baz'

Migrating Import Syntax

Up to v0.3.2, broccoli-graphql-filter used a coarser-grained import syntax. In order to align with the broader ecosystem and enable better static analysis opportunities, we've moved to a subset of graphql-import's syntax.

To keep the semantics of your existing imports while migrating to the new syntax, you can perform project-wide find/replace, replacing all instances of #import in your project's GraphQL documents with # import * from.
