StepZen Example: with-hackernews

Introduction

This project builds a GraphQL API connected to HackerNews' API using StepZen. We will use the @rest directive to generate our GraphQL schema. You can refer to the documentation here

Getting Started

You'll need to create a StepZen account first. Once you've got that set up, git clone this repository onto your machine and open the working directory:

git clone https://github.com/stepzen-dev/examples.git
cd examples/with-hackernews

Run StepZen

Open your terminal and install the StepZen CLI:

npm install -g stepzen

You need to login here using the command:

stepzen login

After you've installed the CLI and logged in, run:

stepzen start

A proxy of the GraphiQL playground becomes available at http://localhost/5001 (in example http://localhost:5001/api/with-hackernews), which you can use to explore the GraphQL API. Also, the endpoint at which your GraphQL API is deployed gets logged in the terminal. You can query your GraphQL API from any application, browser, or IDE by providing the API Key linked to your account.
