Re: [ANN] graphql-clj 0.2.0

2017-04-30 Thread Matthew Boston
The first, and biggest difference that I see, is that a schema is defined 
as a single string in graphql-clj, but Lacinia uses data structures to 
describe your graphql schema. The latter being more easily composable, if 
that's something you need.

Re: [ANN] graphql-clj 0.2.0

2017-04-27 Thread Lei
Good question.

Before I answer it directly, please allow me to share some history about
GraphQL.

Back 2016, I felt the pain of maintaining different versions of RESTful api
for both web application and mobile application. I believed GraphQL was the
answer. So I tried to look around, there was no available GraphQL
implementation in Clojure Community.I loved GraphQL so much, so I decided
to implement one in Clojure.

I started with GraphQL parser, it was done very quickly with the help of
Instaparse. In the middle of 2016, the 0.1.0 version of graphq-clj was
released. After the release, a lot of people from the community helped
building this library, especially from Edward in Nebank. Early 2017, myself
and one of my team member JeffI started rewriting the parser and validator.
The purpose of the rewrite was to simplify the implementation and make
validation process more predictable and robust.

Here are few main ideas about graphql-clj:

1. Provides parser and validator for GraphQL schema langurage. User don't
need to learn anything new other than GraphQL schema spec. This is probably
one major difference.
2. Simple API. To start using GraphQL with graphql-clj, only two API
functions(resolver and execution) are needed.

A demo project has been provided showing how to use graphql-clj:
https://github.com/tendant/graphql-clj-starter. It has GraphiQL build-in,
you can try it yourself.

graphql-clj is still evolving, any comments and advices are very welcome.

Lacinia was just open sourced recently, I only read some document about it.

There is also another option named alumbra worth trying as well. It is good
to have options.

How does this compare to Lacinia?

[ANN] graphql-clj 0.2.0

2017-04-24 Thread Lei
graphql-clj is a Clojure library that provides GraphQL implementation.

In this new version 0.2.0,  schema and query validator have been completely 
rewritten for simplicity and robustness. APIs have simplified in this new 
version as well.

The github repository is: https://github.com/tendant/graphql-clj

Any comments and advices are welcome!

Cheers,
Lei
