GraphQL	graphql	Setting up a GraphQL server.

GraphQL Example

This project demonstrates how to set up a GraphQL server in a Go application using the Fiber framework.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• Golang
• Fiber package
• gqlgen package

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
   cd recipes/graphql

2. Install dependencies:

   go get

3. Initialize gqlgen:

   go run github.com/99designs/gqlgen init

Running the Application

1. Start the application:

   go run main.go

2. Access the GraphQL playground at http://localhost:3000/graphql.

Example

Here is an example main.go file for the Fiber application with GraphQL:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
    "github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql/handler"
    "github.com/99designs/gqlgen/graphql/playground"
)

func main() {
    app := fiber.New()

    srv := handler.NewDefaultServer(generated.NewExecutableSchema(generated.Config{Resolvers: &resolver{}}))

    app.All("/graphql", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        srv.ServeHTTP(c.Context().ResponseWriter(), c.Context().Request)
        return nil
    })

    app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        playground.Handler("GraphQL playground", "/graphql").ServeHTTP(c.Context().ResponseWriter(), c.Context().Request)
        return nil
    })

    log.Fatal(app.Listen(":3000"))
}
