* Description
This module adds [[https://www.graphql.org][GraphQL]] support to Doom Emacs.
+ Code completion
+ LSP support (=+lsp=)
+ Diagnostics (GraphQL syntax linting/validations) (spec-compliant)
+ Autocomplete suggestions (spec-compliant)
+ Hyperlink to fragment definitions and named types (type, input, enum) definitions (spec-compliant)
+ Outline view support for queries and SDL
+ Symbols support across the workspace
+ Local schema viewer
+ Org-babel exporter (requires =:lang org=)
** Maintainers
+ [[https://github.com/elken][@elken]] (Author)
** Module Flags
+ =+lsp= Enable LSP support through [[https://github.com/graphql/graphiql/tree/main/packages/graphql-language-service-cli#readme][graphql-language-service-cli]] (also requires =:tools lsp=)
** Plugins
+ [[https://github.com/davazp/graphql-mode][graphql-mode]]
+ [[https://github.com/ifitzpatrick/graphql-doc.el][graphql-doc]]
+ [[https://github.com/timoweave/company-graphql][company-graphql]] (when =+lsp= is disabled)
** Hacks
Added a convenience function =+graphql-doc-open-config= to open schema docs from a
[[https://github.com/jimkyndemeyer/graphql-config-examples][=.graphqlconfig=]] file.
* Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for using this module. LSP server should be
downloaded upon opening a graphql buffer.
* Features
** Sending queries
When visiting a graphql buffer, you have access to the ability to send the
current query with =C-c C-c= which will prompt you for an optional variables file,
then execute the query and return a buffer of the results.
It's also possible to send queries using org-babel using a block such as the
ones below (executing correctly will require =:lang org=)
#+NAME: my-variables
#+begin_src json
{
"continentCode": "AF"
}
#+end_src
#+BEGIN_SRC graphql :url https://countries.trevorblades.com/ :variables my-variables
query GetContinents($continentCode: String!) {
continent(code: $continentCode) {
name
code
}
}
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
: {
: "data": {
: "continent": {
: "name": "Africa",
: "code": "AF"
: }
: }
: }
** Viewing docs
With this module, there are 3 ways to view schemas:
+ =+graphql-doc-open-config= which uses a local [[https://github.com/jimkyndemeyer/graphql-config-examples][=.graphqlconfig=]] file to seed endpoints to query
+ =graphql-doc= which prompts you to select an endpoint based on ones added manually by =graphql-doc-add-api=
+ =graphql-doc-open-url= which prompts to to manually enter an endpoint url
When using the doc viewer, there are a few bindings for navigating around.
| Key | Command | Description |
|-------------+---------------------+-----------------------------------|
| =C-j= | =forward-button= | Follow a forward button |
| =C-k= | =backward-button= | Follow a backward button |
| =<backspace>= | =graphql-doc-go-back= | Go back to a previous page |
| =mouse-1= | - | Follow the next label under =point= |
| =RET= | - | Follow the next label under =point= |
* Configuration
Most of the "magic" in the module relies on a properly configured
[[https://github.com/jimkyndemeyer/graphql-config-examples][=.graphqlconfig=]] file, so follow the examples linked to create an appropriate
setup.
LSP configuration is handled through [[https://github.com/graphql/graphiql/tree/main/packages/graphql-language-service-cli#graphql-configuration-file-graphqlrcyml][GraphQL Config]] to handle custom directives/documents/validation etc.
These files will also be useful to other editors, so it would be worth trying to
get them into version control.
