mongoke


Instantly serve your MongoDb database via graphql

[**Docs**](https://mongoke.now.sh/docs/) • [**Examples**](https://github.com/remorses/mongoke/tree/master/examples)

## Features

- **Powerful Queries**: Pagination, filtering, relation, relay-style connections built-in and generated in a bunch of seconds
- **Works with existing databases**: Point it to an existing MongoDb database to instantly get a ready-to-use GraphQL API
- **Authorization via Jwt**: Every collection can be protected based on jwt payload and document fields
- **Horizontally Scalable**: The service is completely stateless and can be replicated on demand
- **Apollo Federation**: The service can be easily glued with other graphql servers to handle writes and more complicated logic.
- **Resilient Idempotent Configuration**: One YAML Configuration as the only source of truth, relations, authorization and types in one file

## Quickstart:

## Using Docker compose

The fastest way to try Mongoke is via docker-compose.

### 1. Write the configuration to describe the database schema and relations

The ObjectId scalar is already defined by default, it is converted to string when sent as json

```yml
# ./mongoke.yml
schema: |
type User {
_id: ObjectId
username: String
email: String
}
type BlogPost {
_id: ObjectId
author_id: ObjectId
title: String
content: String
}

types:
User:
collection: users
BlogPost:
collection: posts

relations:
- field: posts
from: User
to: BlogPost
relation_type: to_many
where:
author_id: ${{ parent['_id'] }}
```

### 2. Run the `mongoke` image with the above configuration

To start the container mount copy paste the following content in a `docker-compose.yml` file, then execute `docker-compose up`.

```yml
# docker-compose.yml
version: '3'

services:
mongoke:
ports:
- 4000:80
image: mongoke/mongoke
environment:
DB_URL: mongodb://mongo/db
volumes:
- ./mongoke.yml:/conf.yml
mongo:
image: mongo
```

### 3. Query the generated service via graphql or go to [http://localhost:4000/graphiql](http://localhost:4000/graphiql) to open graphiql

```graphql
{
User(where: { username: { eq: "Mike" } }) {
_id
username
email
posts {
nodes {
title
}
}
}

BlogPostNodes(first: 10, after: "Post 1", cursorField: title) {
nodes {
title
content
}
pageInfo {
endCursor
hasNextPage
}
}
}
```
