# Use AWS AppSync with JavaScript apps · [![lerna](https://img.shields.io/badge/maintained%20with-lerna-cc00ff.svg)](https://lernajs.io/)

![AWS AppSync](https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-mobile-hub-images/awsappsyncgithub.png)

[AWS AppSync](https://aws.amazon.com/appsync/) is a fully managed service that makes it easy to develop GraphQL APIs by handling the heavy lifting of securely connecting to data sources like AWS DynamoDB, Lambda, and more.

You can use any HTTP or GraphQL client to connect to a GraphQL API on AppSync.

For front-end web and mobile development, we recommend using the [AWS Amplify library](https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/graphqlapi/getting-started/q/platform/js/) which is optimized to connect to the AppSync backend.

- For DynamoDB data sources where conflict detection and resolution are enabled on AppSync, use the [DataStore category in the Amplify library](https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/datastore/getting-started/q/platform/js/).
- For non-DynamoDB data sources in scenarios where you have no offline requirements, use the [API (GraphQL) category in the Amplify library](https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/graphqlapi/getting-started/q/platform/js/).
- If you want to use the Apollo V3 client, use the Apollo Links in this repository to help with authorization and subscriptions.

**Looking for the AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (built on Apollo v2)?** AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (V2) is now in Maintenance Mode until June 30th, 2024. This means that we will continue to include updates to ensure compatibility with backend services and security. No new features will be introduced in the AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (V2). Please review the [upgrade guide](https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/graphqlapi/upgrade-guide/q/platform/js) for recommended next steps.

## [AWS AppSync](https://aws.amazon.com/appsync/) Links for Apollo V3

If you would like to use the [Apollo JavaScript client version 3](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/) to connect to your AppSync GraphQL API, this repository (on the current stable branch) provides Apollo links to use the different AppSync authorization modes, and to setup subscriptions over web sockets. Please log questions for this client SDK in this repo and questions for the AppSync service in the [official AWS AppSync forum](https://forums.aws.amazon.com/forum.jspa?forumID=280&start=0) .

[Example usage of Apollo V3 links](#using-authorization-and-subscription-links-with-apollo-client-v3-no-offline-support)

### React / React Native

For more documentation on `graphql` operations performed by React Apollo see their [documentation](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/).

### Using Authorization and Subscription links with Apollo Client V3 (No offline support)

For versions of the Apollo client newer than 2.4.6 you can use custom links for Authorization and Subscriptions. Offline support is not available for these newer versions. The packages available are
`aws-appsync-auth-link` and `aws-appsync-subscription-link`. Below is a sample code snippet that shows how to use it.

```javascript
import { createAuthLink } from "aws-appsync-auth-link";
import { createSubscriptionHandshakeLink } from "aws-appsync-subscription-link";

import {
ApolloProvider,
ApolloClient,
InMemoryCache,
HttpLink,
ApolloLink,
} from "@apollo/client";

import appSyncConfig from "./aws-exports";

/* The HTTPS endpoint of the AWS AppSync API
(e.g. *https://aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/graphql*).
[Custom domain names](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/devguide/custom-domain-name.html) can also be supplied here (e.g. *https://api.yourdomain.com/graphql*).
Custom domain names can have any format, but must end with `/graphql`
(see https://graphql.org/learn/serving-over-http/#uris-routes). */
const url = appSyncConfig.aws_appsync_graphqlEndpoint;

const region = appSyncConfig.aws_appsync_region;

const auth = {
type: appSyncConfig.aws_appsync_authenticationType,
apiKey: appSyncConfig.aws_appsync_apiKey,
// jwtToken: async () => token, // Required when you use Cognito UserPools OR OpenID Connect. token object is obtained previously
// credentials: async () => credentials, // Required when you use IAM-based auth.
};

const httpLink = new HttpLink({ uri: url });

const link = ApolloLink.from([
createAuthLink({ url, region, auth }),
createSubscriptionHandshakeLink({ url, region, auth }, httpLink),
]);

const client = new ApolloClient({
link,
cache: new InMemoryCache(),
});

const ApolloWrapper = ({ children }) => {
return {children};
};
```

### Queries and Subscriptions using Apollo V3

```js
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { gql, useSubscription } from "@apollo/client";
import { useMutation, useQuery } from "@apollo/client";
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from "uuid";

const initialState = { name: "", description: "" };

const App = () => {

const LIST_TODOS = gql`
query listTodos {
listTodos {
items {
id
name
description
}
}
}
`;

const {
loading: listLoading,
data: listData,
error: listError,
} = useQuery(LIST_TODOS);

const CREATE_TODO = gql`
mutation createTodo($input: CreateTodoInput!) {
createTodo(input: $input) {
id
name
description
}
}
`;

// https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/data/mutations/
const [addTodoMutateFunction, { error: createError }] =
useMutation(CREATE_TODO);

async function addTodo() {
try {
addTodoMutateFunction({ variables: { input: { todo } } });
} catch (err) {
console.log("error creating todo:", err);
}
}

const DELETE_TODO = gql`
mutation deleteTodo($input: DeleteTodoInput!) {
deleteTodo(input: $input) {
id
name
description
}
}
`;

const [deleteTodoMutateFunction] = useMutation(DELETE_TODO, {
refetchQueries: [LIST_TODOS, "listTodos"],
});

async function removeTodo(id) {
try {
deleteTodoMutateFunction({ variables: { input: { id } } });
} catch (err) {
console.log("error deleting todo:", err);
}
}

const CREATE_TODO_SUBSCRIPTION = gql`
subscription OnCreateTodo {
onCreateTodo {
id
name
description
}
}
`;

const { data: createSubData, error: createSubError } = useSubscription(
CREATE_TODO_SUBSCRIPTION
);

return (
// Render TODOs
);
};

export default App;
```

## [AWS AppSync](https://aws.amazon.com/appsync/) JavaScript SDK based on Apollo V2 (Maintenance mode)

The `aws-appsync` and `aws-appsync-react` packages work with the [Apollo client version 2](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/v2) and provide offline capabilities.

**Note:** if you do not have any offline requirements in your app, we recommend using the [Amplify libraries](https://aws-amplify.github.io/).

![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/dm/aws-appsync.svg)

| package | version |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| aws-appsync | ![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/aws-appsync.svg) |
| aws-appsync-react | ![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/aws-appsync-react.svg) |

### Installation

#### npm

```sh
npm install --save aws-appsync
```

#### yarn

```sh
yarn add aws-appsync
```

#### React Native Compatibility

When using this library with React Native, you need to ensure you are using the correct version of the library based on your version of React Native. Take a look at the table below to determine what version to use.

| `aws-appsync` version | Required React Native Version |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| `2.x.x` | `>= 0.60` |
| `1.x.x` | `<= 0.59` |

If you are using React Native `0.60` and above, you also need to install `@react-native-community/netinfo` and `@react-native-community/async-storage`:

```sh
npm install --save @react-native-community/[email protected] @react-native-community/async-storage
```

or

```sh
yarn add @react-native-community/[email protected] @react-native-community/async-storage
```

If you are using React Native `0.60+` for iOS, run the following command as an additional step:

```sh
npx pod-install
```

### Creating a client with AppSync SDK for JavaScript V2 (Maintenance mode)

```js
import AWSAppSyncClient from "aws-appsync";
import AppSyncConfig from "./aws-exports";
import { ApolloProvider } from "react-apollo";
import { Rehydrated } from "aws-appsync-react"; // this needs to also be installed when working with React
import App from "./App";

const client = new AWSAppSyncClient({
/* The HTTPS endpoint of the AWS AppSync API
(e.g. *https://aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/graphql*).
[Custom domain names](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/devguide/custom-domain-name.html) can also be supplied here (e.g. *https://api.yourdomain.com/graphql*).
Custom domain names can have any format, but must end with `/graphql`
(see https://graphql.org/learn/serving-over-http/#uris-routes). */
url: AppSyncConfig.aws_appsync_graphqlEndpoint,
region: AppSyncConfig.aws_appsync_region,
auth: {
type: AppSyncConfig.aws_appsync_authenticationType,
apiKey: AppSyncConfig.aws_appsync_apiKey,
// jwtToken: async () => token, // Required when you use Cognito UserPools OR OpenID Connect. Token object is obtained previously
// credentials: async () => credentials, // Required when you use IAM-based auth.
},
});

const WithProvider = () => (





);

### Complex objects with AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (Maintenance mode)

Many times you might want to create logical objects that have more complex data, such as images or videos, as part of their structure. For example, you might create a Person type with a profile picture or a Post type that has an associated image. With AWS AppSync, you can model these as GraphQL types, referred to as complex objects. If any of your mutations have a variable with bucket, key, region, mimeType and localUri fields, the SDK uploads the file to Amazon S3 for you.

For a complete working example of this feature, see [aws-amplify-graphql](https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-amplify-graphql) on GitHub.

If you're using AWS Amplify's GraphQL transformer, then configure your resolvers to write to DynamoDB and point at S3 objects when using the `S3Object` type. For example, run the following in an Amplify project:

```bash
amplify add auth #Select default configuration
amplify add storage #Select S3 with read/write access
amplify add api #Select Cognito User Pool for authorization type
```

When prompted, use the following schema:

```graphql
type Todo @model {
id: ID!
name: String!
description: String!
file: S3Object
}
type S3Object {
bucket: String!
key: String!
region: String!
}
input CreateTodoInput {
id: ID
name: String!
description: String
file: S3ObjectInput # This input type will be generated for you
}
```

Save and run `amplify push` to deploy changes.

To use complex objects you need AWS Identity and Access Management credentials for reading and writing to Amazon S3 which `amplify add auth` configures in the default setting along with a Cognito user pool. These can be separate from the other auth credentials you use in your AWS AppSync client. Credentials for complex objects are set using the `complexObjectsCredentials` parameter, which you can use with AWS Amplify and the complex objects feature like so:

```javascript
const client = new AWSAppSyncClient({
url: ENDPOINT,
region: REGION,
auth: { ... }, //Can be User Pools or API Key
complexObjectsCredentials: () => Auth.currentCredentials(),
});
(async () => {
let file;
if (selectedFile) { // selectedFile is the file to be uploaded, typically comes from an
const { name, type: mimeType } = selectedFile;
const [, , , extension] = /([^.]+)(\.(\w+))?$/.exec(name);
const bucket = aws_config.aws_user_files_s3_bucket;
const region = aws_config.aws_user_files_s3_bucket_region;
const visibility = 'private';
const { identityId } = await Auth.currentCredentials();
const key = `${visibility}/${identityId}/${uuid()}${extension && '.'}${extension}`;
file = {
bucket,
key,
region,
mimeType,
localUri: selectedFile,
};
}
const result = await client.mutate({
mutation: gql(createTodo),
variables: {
input: {
name: 'Upload file',
description: 'Uses complex objects to upload',
file: file,
}
}
});
})();
```

When you run the above mutation, a record will be in a DynamoDB table for your AppSync API as well as the corresponding file in an S3 bucket.

### Offline configuration with AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (Maintenance mode)

When using the AWS AppSync SDK offline capabilities (e.g. `disableOffline: false`), you can provide configurations for the following:

- Error handling
- Custom storage engine

#### Error handling

If a mutation is done while the app was offline, it gets persisted to the platform storage engine. When coming back online, it is sent to the GraphQL endpoint. When a response is returned by the API, the SDK will notify you of the success or error using the callback provided in the `offlineConfig` param as follows:

```javascript
const client = new AWSAppSyncClient({
url: appSyncConfig.graphqlEndpoint,
region: appSyncConfig.region,
auth: {
type: appSyncConfig.authenticationType,
apiKey: appSyncConfig.apiKey,
},
offlineConfig: {
callback: (err, succ) => {
if (err) {
const { mutation, variables } = err;

console.warn(`ERROR for ${mutation}`, err);
} else {
const { mutation, variables } = succ;

console.info(`SUCCESS for ${mutation}`, succ);
}
},
},
});
```

#### Custom storage engine

You can use any custom storage engine from the [redux-persist supported engines](https://github.com/rt2zz/redux-persist#storage-engines) list.

Configuration is done as follows: (localForage shown in the example)

```javascript
import * as localForage from "localforage";

const client = new AWSAppSyncClient({
url: appSyncConfig.graphqlEndpoint,
region: appSyncConfig.region,
auth: {
type: appSyncConfig.authenticationType,
apiKey: appSyncConfig.apiKey,
},
offlineConfig: {
storage: localForage,
},
});
```

#### Offline helpers

For detailed documentation about the offline helpers, look at the [API Definition](OFFLINE_HELPERS.md).

### Vue sample with AWS AppSync SDK for JavaScript (Maintenance mode)

For more documentation on Vue Apollo click [here](https://github.com/Akryum/vue-apollo).

#### main.js

```js
import Vue from "vue";
import App from "./App";

auth: {
type: AppSyncConfig.authType,
apiKey: AppSyncConfig.apiKey,
},
};
const options = {
defaultOptions: {
watchQuery: {
fetchPolicy: "cache-and-network",
},
},
};

const client = new AWSAppSyncClient(config, options);
