Low-level GraphQL client for Go.

  • Simple, familiar API
  • Respects context.Context timeouts and cancellation
  • Build and execute any kind of GraphQL request
  • Use strong Go types for response data
  • Use variables and upload files
  • Simple error handling

Installation

Make sure you have a working Go environment. To install graphql, simply run:

$ go get github.com/machinebox/graphql

Usage

import "context"

// create a client (safe to share across requests)
client := graphql.NewClient("https://machinebox.io/graphql")

// make a request
req := graphql.NewRequest(`
    query ($key: String!) {
        items (id:$key) {
            field1
            field2
            field3
        }
    }
`)

// set any variables
req.Var("key", "value")

// set header fields
req.Header.Set("Cache-Control", "no-cache")

// define a Context for the request
ctx := context.Background()

// run it and capture the response
var respData ResponseStruct
if err := client.Run(ctx, req, &respData); err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
File support via multipart form data

By default, the package will send a JSON body. To enable the sending of files, you can opt to use multipart form data instead using the UseMultipartForm option when you create your Client:

client := graphql.NewClient("https://machinebox.io/graphql", graphql.UseMultipartForm())

For more information, read the godoc package documentation or the blog post.

Overview

Package graphql provides a low level GraphQL client.

// create a client (safe to share across requests)
client := graphql.NewClient("https://machinebox.io/graphql")

// make a request
req := graphql.NewRequest(`
    query ($key: String!) {
        items (id:$key) {
            field1
            field2
            field3
        }
    }
`)

// set any variables
req.Var("key", "value")

// run it and capture the response
var respData ResponseStruct
if err := client.Run(ctx, req, &respData); err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

Specify client

To specify your own http.Client, use the WithHTTPClient option:

httpclient := &http.Client{}
client := graphql.NewClient("https://machinebox.io/graphql", graphql.WithHTTPClient(httpclient))

Types

type Client added in v0.2.0

type Client struct {

	// Log is called with various debug information.
	// To log to standard out, use:
	//  client.Log = func(s string) { log.Println(s) }
	Log func(s string)
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Client is a client for interacting with a GraphQL API.

func NewClient added in v0.2.0

func NewClient(endpoint string, opts ...ClientOption) *Client

NewClient makes a new Client capable of making GraphQL requests.

func (*Client) Run added in v0.2.0

func (c *Client) Run(ctx context.Context, req *Request, resp interface{}) error

Run executes the query and unmarshals the response from the data field into the response object. Pass in a nil response object to skip response parsing. If the request fails or the server returns an error, the first error will be returned.

type ClientOption added in v0.2.0

type ClientOption func(*Client)

ClientOption are functions that are passed into NewClient to modify the behaviour of the Client.

func UseMultipartForm added in v0.2.2

func UseMultipartForm() ClientOption

UseMultipartForm uses multipart/form-data and activates support for files.

func WithHTTPClient added in v0.2.0

func WithHTTPClient(httpclient *http.Client) ClientOption

WithHTTPClient specifies the underlying http.Client to use when making requests.

NewClient(endpoint, WithHTTPClient(specificHTTPClient))

type Request

type Request struct {

	// Header represent any request headers that will be set
	// when the request is made.
	Header http.Header
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Request is a GraphQL request.

func NewRequest

func NewRequest(q string) *Request

NewRequest makes a new Request with the specified string.

func (*Request) File

func (req *Request) File(fieldname, filename string, r io.Reader)

File sets a file to upload. Files are only supported with a Client that was created with the UseMultipartForm option.

func (*Request) Var

func (req *Request) Var(key string, value interface{})

Var sets a variable.
