graphene-file-upload

graphene-file-upload is a drop in replacement for the the GraphQL view in Graphene for Django, and for Flask-Graphql.

It supports multi-part file uploads that adhere to the Multipart Request Spec.

It currently supports Python 2.7 and 3.4+.

Installation:

pip install graphene-file-upload

Usage

To add an upload type to your mutation, import and use Upload. Upload is a scalar type.

from graphene_file_upload.scalars import Upload

class UploadMutation(graphene.Mutation):
    class Arguments:
        file = Upload(required=True)

    success = graphene.Boolean()

    def mutate(self, info, file, **kwargs):
        # do something with your file

        return UploadMutation(success=True)

Django Integration:

To use, import the view, then add to your list of urls (replace previous GraphQL view).

from graphene_file_upload.django import FileUploadGraphQLView

urlpatterns = [
  url(r'^graphql', FileUploadGraphQLView.as_view(graphiql=True)),
]

Flask Integration:

Note that flask-graphql version <2.0 is not supported. At the time of writing this README, you must install flask-graphql with pip install --pre flask-graphql

Simply import the modified view and create a new url rule on your app:

from graphene_file_upload.flask import FileUploadGraphQLView

app.add_url_rule(
    '/graphql',
    view_func=FileUploadGraphQLView.as_view(
      ...
    )
)

Testing

Flask

# Create a fixture using the file_graphql_query helper and `client` fixture.
import os
import json
import tempfile

from flaskr import flaskr
import pytest
from graphene_file_upload.flask.testing import file_graphql_query


@pytest.fixture
def client():
    db_fd, flaskr.app.config['DATABASE'] = tempfile.mkstemp()
    flaskr.app.config['TESTING'] = True

    with flaskr.app.test_client() as client:

    def func(*args, **kwargs):
        return file_graphql_query(*args, **kwargs, client=client)

    return func

                ok
            }
        }
        ''',
        op_name='testMutation'

    content = json.loads(response.content)
    assert 'errors' not in content

Django

Writing test using django's test client

Using pytest

To use pytest define a simple fixture using the query helper below

# Create a fixture using the file_graphql_query helper and `client` fixture from `pytest-django`.

import json
import pytest
from graphene_file_upload.django.testing import file_graphql_query

@pytest.fixture
def client_query(client):
    def func(*args, **kwargs):
        return file_graphql_query(*args, **kwargs, client=client)

    return func

# Test your query using the client_query fixture
def test_some_query(client_query):
    test_file = SimpleUploadedFile(name='test.txt', content=file_text.encode('utf-8'))
    
    response = client_query(
        '''
        mutation testMutation($file: Upload!) {
            myUpload(fileIn: $file) {
                ok
            }
        }
        ''',
        op_name='testMutation'
        files={'file': test_file},
    )

    content = json.loads(response.content)
    assert 'errors' not in content

Using unittest

Your endpoint is set through the GRAPHQL_URL attribute on GraphQLFileUploadTestCase. The default endpoint is GRAPHQL_URL = “/graphql/”.

import json

from graphene_file_upload.django.testing import GraphQLFileUploadTestCase

class MutationTestCase(GraphQLFileUploadTestCase):
   def test_some_mutation(self):
        test_file = SimpleUploadedFile(name='test.txt', content=file_text.encode('utf-8'))

        response = self.file_query(
            '''
            mutation testMutation($file: Upload!) {
                myUpload(fileIn: $file) {
                    ok
                }
            }
            ''',
            op_name='testMutation',
            files={'file': test_file},
        )

        # This validates the status code and if you get errors
        self.assertResponseNoErrors(response)

Contributing:

If you'd like to contribute, please run the test suite prior to sending a PR.

In order to run the testing environment, create a virtual environment, install tox, and run the tox commands:

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ make install
# You may have to deactivate and reactivate to have access to the tox command,
# depending on your system.

# Run the test suite with the versions of python you have installed
$ tox
# Alternatively, if you're using something like pyenv and can easily install
# Multiple versions of python, then try running the following command
$ tox

# If for some reason you need to recreate the tox environment (e.g. a new
# dependency has been added since you last ran it, add the -r flag to the
# tox command)
$ tox -r {...additional flags...}

Check out pyenv if you'd like a simple way of installing multiple python versions to test out.

Packaging for PyPi:

Run

$ make deploy
