Rails style structure for GraphQL API.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'graphql_rails'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install graphql_rails

## Getting started

Execute:

$ bundle exec rails g graphql_rails:install

This will generate code which will let you start your graphql faster

## Usage

### Define GraphQL schema as RoR routes

```ruby
# config/graphql/routes.rb
GraphqlRails::Router.draw do
# will create createUser, updateUser, destroyUser mutations and user, users queries.
# expects that UsersController class exist
resources :users

# if you want custom queries or mutation
query 'searchLogs', to: 'logs#search' # action is handled by LogsController#search
end
```

See [Routes docs](components/routes.md) for more info.

### Define your Graphql model

```ruby
# app/models/user.rb
class User # works with any class including ActiveRecord
include GraphqlRails::Model

graphql do |c|
# most common attributes, like :id, :name, :title has default type, so you don't have to specify it (but you can!)
c.attribute(:id)

c.attribute(:email).type('String')
c.attribute(:surname).type('String')
end
end
```

See [Model docs](components/model.md) for more info.

### Define controller

```ruby
# app/controllers/graphql/users_controller.rb
class Graphql::UsersController < GraphqlApplicationController
model('User') # specify that all actions returns User by default

# DRUD actions description
action(:index).permit(id: 'ID!').returns_many
action(:show).permit(id: 'ID!').returns_single
action(:create).permit(email: 'String!').returns_single
action(:update).permit(id: 'ID!', email: 'String!').returns_single
action(:destroy).permit(id: 'ID!').returns_single

def index
User.all
end

def show
User.find(params[:id])
end
# ... code for create / update / destroy is skipped ...
end
```

See [Controller docs](components/controller.md) for more info.

## Testing your GraphqlRails::Controller in RSpec

### Setup

Add those lines in your `spec/spec_helper.rb` file

```ruby
# spec/spec_helper.rb
require 'graphql_rails/rspec_controller_helpers'

RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include(GraphqlRails::RSpecControllerHelpers, type: :graphql_controller)
# ... your other configuration ...
end
```

See [Testing docs](testing/testing.md) for more info.

### Helper methods

There are 3 helper methods:

* `mutation(:your_controller_action_name, params: {}, context: {})`. `params` and `context` are optional
* `query(:your_controller_action_name, params: {}, context: {})`. `params` and `context` are optional
* `response`. Response is set only after you call `mutation` or `query`

### Test examples

```ruby
class MyGraphqlController
action(:create_user).permit(:full_name, :email).returns(User)
action(:index).returns('String')

def index
"Called from index: #{params[:message]}"
end

def create_user
User.create!(params)
end
end

RSpec.describe MyGraphqlController, type: :graphql_controller do
describe '#index' do
it 'is successful' do
query(:index)
expect(response).to be_successful
end

it 'returns correct message' do
query(:index, params: { message: 'Hello world!' })
expect(response.result).to eq "Called from index: Hello world!"
end
end

describe '#create_user' do
context 'when bad email is given' do
it 'fails' do
mutation(:create_user, params { email: 'bad' })
expect(response).to be_failure
end

it 'contains errors' do
mutation(:create_user, params { email: 'bad' })
expect(response.errors).not_to be_empty
end
end
end
end
```

### Integrating GraphqlRails with other tools

In order to make GraphqlRails work with tools such as lograge or sentry, you need to enable them. In Ruby on Rails, you can add initializer:

```ruby
# config/initializers/graphql_rails.rb
GraphqlRails::Integrations.enable(:lograge, :sentry)
```

At the moment, GraphqlRails supports following integrations:

* lograge
* sentry

If you need to build something custom, check [logging_and_monitoring documentation](logging_and_monitoring/logging_and_monitoring.md) for more details.

## Detailed documentation

Check https://samesystem.github.io/graphql_rails for more details

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
