Execute GraphQL on the edge.
Install this library as dependency via your favorite package manager :)
$ [npm|yarn|pnpm] install graphql-edge
Following example works on Fastly Compute@Edge.
A GraphQL schema defines at schema.graphql:
type Book {
id: Int!
title: String!
}
type Query {
books: [Book]!
}
And then server implementation is:
import { graphqlHandler } from "graphql-edge";
import schema from "../../_misc/schema.graphql";
addEventListener("fetch", (event: FetchEvent) => event.respondWith(handleRequest(event)));
// If you want to declare types with TypeScript, prefer to use graphql-codegen
const resolvers = {
Query: {
async books() {
// Actually, we can send resolve request to Fastly Backend!
return [
{ id: 1, title: "book01" },
{ id: 2, title: "book02" },
];
}
}
};
async function handleRequest(event: FetchEvent) {
const { request } = event;
const url = new URL(request.url);
// Only handles /graphql pathname
if (url.pathname === "/graphql") {
const handler = graphqlHandler({
typeDefs: schema,
resolvers,
});
return handler(request);
}
return new Response("Not Found", { status: 404 });
}
Finally, the GraphQL query is:
query GetBooks {
books {
id
title
}
}
And run server and make request, then got response:
$ fastly compute serve
$ curl -v http://localhost:7676/graphql -H "Content-Type: application/graphql" -d @request.graphql
# => {"data":{"books":[{"id":1,"title":"book01"},{"id":2,"title":"book02"}]}}
