# gqlgenc

## What is gqlgenc ?

This is Go library for building GraphQL client with [gqlgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen)

## Motivation

Now, if you build GraphQL api client for Go, have choice:

- [github.com/shurcooL/graphql](https://github.com/shurcooL/graphql)
- [github.com/machinebox/graphql](https://github.com/machinebox/graphql)

These libraries are very simple and easy to handle.
However, as I work with [gqlgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen) and [graphql-code-generator](https://graphql-code-generator.com/) every day, I find out the beauty of automatic generation.
So I want to automatically generate types.

## Installation

```shell script
go get -u github.com/Yamashou/gqlgenc
```

## How to use

### Client Codes Only

gqlgenc base is gqlgen with [plugins](https://gqlgen.com/reference/plugins/). So the setting is yaml in each format.
gqlgenc can be configured using a `.gqlgenc.yml` file

Load a schema from a remote server:

```yaml
model:
package: generated
filename: ./models_gen.go # https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen/tree/master/plugin/modelgen
client:
package: generated
filename: ./client.go # Where should any generated client go?
models:
Int:
model: github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql.Int64
Date:
model: github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql.Time
federation: # Add this if your schema includes Apollo Federation related directives
version: 2
endpoint:
url: https://api.annict.com/graphql # Where do you want to send your request?
headers: # If you need header for getting introspection query, set it
Authorization: "Bearer ${ANNICT_KEY}" # support environment variables
query:
- "./query/*.graphql" # Where are all the query files located?
generate:
clientInterfaceName: "GithubGraphQLClient" # Determine the name of the generated client interface
structFieldsAlwaysPointers: true # Always use pointers for struct fields (default: true) [same as gqlgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen/blob/e1ef86e795e738654c98553b325a248c02c8c2f8/docs/content/config.md?plain=1#L73)
```

Load a schema from a local file:

```yaml
model:
package: generated
filename: ./models_gen.go # https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen/tree/master/plugin/modelgen
client:
package: generated
filename: ./client.go # Where should any generated client go?
models:
Int:
model: github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql.Int64
Date:
model: github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql.Time
federation: # Add this if your schema includes Apollo Federation related directives
version: 2
schema:
- "schema/**/*.graphql" # Where are all the schema files located?
query:
- "./query/*.graphql" # Where are all the query files located?
generate:
clientInterfaceName: "GithubGraphQLClient" # Determine the name of the generated client interface
structFieldsAlwaysPointers: true # Optional: Always use pointers for struct fields (default: true). [same as gqlgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen/blob/e1ef86e795e738654c98553b325a248c02c8c2f8/docs/content/config.md?plain=1#L73)
```

Execute the following command on same directory for .gqlgenc.yml

```shell script
gqlgenc
```

or if you want to specify a different directory where .gqlgenc.yml file resides
(e.g. in this example the directory is *schemas*):

```shell script
gqlgenc generate --configdir schemas
```

### With gqlgen

Do this when creating a server and client for Go.
You create your own entrypoint for gqlgen.
This use case is very useful for testing your server.

```go
package main

import (
"fmt"
"os"

"github.com/Yamashou/gqlgenc/clientgenv2"

"github.com/99designs/gqlgen/api"
"github.com/99designs/gqlgen/codegen/config"
)

func main() {
cfg, err := config.LoadConfigFromDefaultLocations()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "failed to load config", err.Error())
os.Exit(2)
}
queries := []string{"client.query", "fragemt.query"}
clientPackage := config.PackageConfig{
Filename: "./client.go",
Package: "gen",
}

clientPlugin := clientgenv2.New(queries, clientPackage, nil)
err = api.Generate(cfg,
api.AddPlugin(clientPlugin),
)
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err.Error())
os.Exit(3)
}
}
```

### Pre-conditions

[clientgenv2](https://github.com/Yamashou/gqlgenc/tree/master/clientgenv2) is created based on [modelgen](https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen/tree/master/plugin/modelgen). So if you don't have a modelgen, it may be a mysterious move.
