Meteor GraphQL

Compiler plugin that supports GraphQL files in Meteor

Installation

meteor add swydo:graphql

Usage

import query from './query.graphql';

// See https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client for setup
const client = new ApolloClient();

// The query is parsed and can be directly passed to the Apollo Client
client.query({ query }).then(console.log);

You can also import your main schema and pass it directly to makeExecutableSchema:

import { makeExecutableSchema } from 'graphql-tools';

import typeDefs from './schema.graphql'; // No need to parse it!
import resolvers from './resolvers';

const schema = makeExecutableSchema({
  typeDefs,
  resolvers,
});

.graphql, .graphqls and .gql files are supported.

Benefits

There are some good reasons to use .graphql files instead of the inline syntax:

• Good highlighting by GitHub and your IDE
• No need to manually parse strings with graphql-tag
• The GraphQL Configuration Protocol will support .graphql files out of the box
