# OneService
[](https://github.com/superfaceai/one-service/actions/workflows/main.yml)
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@superfaceai/one-service)
[](LICENSE)

[](https://github.com/orgs/superfaceai/discussions)
OneService allows you to run [OneSDK](https://github.com/superfaceai/one-sdk-js) as a service with configured usecases. And use it as [backend for frontend](https://samnewman.io/patterns/architectural/bff/).
For more details about Superface visit [how it works](https://superface.ai/how-it-works) and [get started](https://superface.ai/docs/getting-started).
## Install
You can use this package as a globally installed CLI program:
```shell
npm install --global @superfaceai/one-service
```
## Usage
To run OneService you need to have Superface configuration.
1. Create new folder where the configuration will be created:
```shell
mkdir myapp
cd myapp
```
2. [Install usecases](https://superface.ai/docs/getting-started#install-the-capability) and [configure providers](https://superface.ai/docs/getting-started#configure-the-provider) :
```shell
npx @superfaceai/cli install weather/current-city --providers wttr-in
```
(Repeat for any usecase you find in [Catalog](https://superface.ai/catalog).)
3. Start OneService with [GraphiQL](https://github.com/graphql/graphiql).
```shell
oneservice --graphiql
```
4. Visit http://localhost:8000/ to open GraphQL interactive IDE
### Use as a HTTP server middleware
OneService package provides `createGraphQLMiddleware` function for mounting the GraphQL server as a middleware with any HTTP web framework that supports connect styled middleware. This includes [Connect](https://github.com/senchalabs/connect) itself, [Express](https://expressjs.com/), [Polka](https://github.com/lukeed/polka), [Restify](http://restify.com/) and others.
The `createGraphQLMiddleware` function returns a promise, therefore you need to await resolution before mounting the middelware.
If you can use [ES modules](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html) in your project, you can resolve the promise with top-level `await`:
```js
// server.mjs
import express from 'express';
import { createGraphQLMiddleware } from '@superfaceai/one-service';
const app = express();
const graphqlMiddleware = await createGraphQLMiddleware({
graphiql: true,
});
app.use('/graphql', graphqlMiddleware);
app.listen(3000);
```
Alternatively you can setup the server inside an `async` funtion:
```js
const express = require('express');
const { createGraphQLMiddleware } = require('@superfaceai/one-service');
async function startServer() {
const app = express();
const graphqlMiddleware = await createGraphQLMiddleware({
graphiql: true,
});
app.use('/graphql', graphqlMiddleware);
app.listen(3000);
}
startServer();
```
`createGraphQLMiddleware` function will throw an error if it cannot generate a GraphQL schema. Possible issues include:
- missing or invalid `super.json`
- name collision between use-cases of installed profiles
- profile with features unsupported by GraphQL
## Example Queries
```graphql
query WeatherInPrague {
WeatherCurrentCity {
GetCurrentWeatherInCity(input: { city: "Prague" }) {
result {
temperature
feelsLike
description
}
}
}
}
query SelectProvider {
WeatherCurrentCity {
GetCurrentWeatherInCity(
input: { city: "Prague" }
provider: { mock: { active: true } } # active flag is optional if only one provider is configured
) {
result {
temperature
feelsLike
description
}
}
}
}
query InstalledProfilesAndProviders {
_superJson {
profiles {
name
version
providers
}
providers
}
}
```
### Use with `.env` file
OneService doesn't automatically load `.env` file. You can manually use [dotenv package](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv) for this functionality. If you would like to use OneService CLI with dotenv, follow these steps:
1. Install dotenv and OneService locally in your project:
```
npm i dotenv @superfaceai/one-service
```
2. Run the CLI via `node` with [dotenv preload](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv#preload):
```
node -r dotenv/config node_modules/.bin/oneservice
```
## Deployment
### Considerations
OneService doesn't provide any authentication or CORS support.
This should be handled by API Gateway (eg. [Express Gateway](https://github.com/ExpressGateway/express-gateway) or [Kong](https://github.com/kong/kong)) or you can use own Express instance and [attach the middleware](#use-as-http-server-middleware).
### Heroku
OneService can be deployed to [Heroku with Git](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git).
#### Prerequisites
- [Heroku CLI installation instructions](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli#download-and-install)
- [Git installation instructions](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git)
- [Node.js installation instructions](https://nodejs.dev/learn/how-to-install-nodejs)
#### Steps
1. You will need folder for the application with local Git repository
```shell
mkdir myapp
cd myapp
git init
```
2. Next step is to install OneService
```shell
npm init -y
npm install --save @superfaceai/one-service
```
3. Install profiles as explaied in [Usage step 2](#usage-install-profiles).
4. [Create Heroku Procfile](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/procfile)
```shell
echo 'web: oneservice --port $PORT --host 0.0.0.0 --graphiql --logs' > Procfile
```
5. Commit changes to Git repository
```shell
git add --all
git commit -m 'OneService configuration'
```
6. Create Heroku remote
```shell
heroku create
```
7. Deploy app
```shell
git push heroku main
```
## Logs
OneService can print structured logs. To allow it use `--logs=` flag:
```shell
oneservice --logs
oneservice --logs=trace
```
Set the optional logging level specifier. Available levels are (ordered by priority):
- fatal
- error
- warn
- info
- debug
- trace
- silent
The logging level is the __minimum__ threshold. When set, every higher level will be logged as well. For instance if `logger.level` is `info` then all `fatal`, `error`, `warn`, and `info` logs will be enabled.
You can pass `silent` to disable logging.
### Pretty print
To print structured logs in readable way during testing or developement, you can use [pino-pretty](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pino-pretty).
Install `pino-pretty`:
```shell
npm install -g pino-pretty
```
Run OneService with pretty print:
```shell
oneservice --logs=trace | pino-pretty
```
