Apollo Server (GraphQL framework)

Local Development

The sample source code is present in server.js.

$ git clone [email protected]:hasura/graphql-engine
$ cd graphql-engine/community/boilerplates/remote-schemas/zeit-now/nodejs

Run the server locally:

npm install
npm start

Running the server using Docker:

docker build -t graphql .
docker run -p 4000:4000 graphql

This will start a local server on localhost:4000. You can hit the graphql service at localhost:4000/graphql which opens GraphiQL.

Deployment

Install the Zeit Now CLI:

npm install -g now

Deploy the server:

now

Get the URL and make a sample query:

curl https://app-name-something.now.sh/graphql \
     -H 'Content-Type:application/json' \
     -d'{"query":"{ hello }"}'

{"data":{"hello":"Hello World!"}}

You can also visit the now url to open GraphiQL.
