## 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)

	}

}

```

### Subscription



This client does not support subscription. If you need a subscription, please create an issue or pull request.



### 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.
