• Early adoption of performance enhancements. These are trying to get pulled into the main branch. graphql-dotnet#452
• Roll back of issue that breaks graph iql: graphql-dotnet#374

This is an implementation of Facebook's GraphQL in .NET.

This project uses a lexer/parser originally written by Marek Magdziak and released with a MIT license. Thank you Marek!

You can install the latest version via NuGet.

PM> Install-Package GraphQL

• 0.11.0

There is a sample web api project hosting the GraphiQL interface. yarn install and yarn start from the root of the repository, then run the web project from Visual Studio.

Note: Before running the GraphiQL project: make sure you Build the entire solution so that all the project references get built. (GraphQL, GraphQL-Parser, etc) to avoid missing reference/assembly errors.

> npm install -g yarn
> yarn install
> yarn start

Define your schema with a top level query object then execute that query.

A more full-featured example including all classes required can be found here.

var schema = Schema.For(@"
  type Query {
    hello: String
  }
");

var root = new { Hello = "Hello World!" };
var result = schema.Execute(_ =>
{
  _.Query = "{ hello }";
  _.Root = root;
});

Console.WriteLine(result);

public class Droid
{
  public string Id { get; set; }
  public string Name { get; set; }
}

public class Query
{
  [GraphQLMetadata("hero")]
  public Droid GetHero()
  {
    return new Droid { Id = "123", Name = "R2-D2" };
  }
}

var schema = Schema.For(@"
  type Droid {
    id: String
    name: String
  }

  type Query {
    hero: Droid
  }
", _ => {
    _.Types.Include<Query>();
});

var result = schema.Execute(_ =>
{
  _.Query = "{ hero { id name } }";
});

public class Droid
{
  public string Id { get; set; }
  public string Name { get; set; }
}

public class Query
{
  private List<Droid> _droids = new List<Droid>
  {
    new Droid { Id = "123", Name = "R2-D2" }
  };

  [GraphQLMetadata("hero")]
  public Droid GetHero(string id)
  {
    return _droids.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Id == id);
  }
}

var schema = Schema.For(@"
  type Droid {
    id: String
    name: String
  }

  type Query {
    hero(id: String): Droid
  }
", _ => {
    _.Types.Include<Query>();
});

string id = "123";
var result = schema.Execute(_ =>
{
  _.Query = $"{{ hero(id: \"{id}\") {{ id name }} }}";
});

The GraphQL.GraphiQLCore project runs on .NET Core 1.1. You can run from Visual Studio Code or from the command line using dotnet run. When you run the project, you will see the GraphiQL editor open.

When using Visual Studio Code, open to the ./src/GraphQL.GraphiQLCore folder. You will get a warning "Required assets to build and debug are missing from 'GraphQL.GraphiQLCore'. Add Them?". Choose Yes. This will add the necessary launch.json and tasks.json files.

To run this project on OSX with mono you will need to add some configuration. Make sure mono is installed and add the following to your bash configuration:

export FrameworkPathOverride=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/4.6.2/lib/mono/4.5/

See the following for more details:
