1 | # GraphQL Hive Client
|
2 |
|
3 | [GraphQL Hive](https://graphql-hive.com) is a GraphQL schemas registry where you can host, manage and collaborate on all your GraphQL schemas and operations, compatible with all architecture: schema stitching, federation, or just a good old monolith.
|
4 |
|
5 | GraphQL Hive is currently available as a hosted service to be used by all.
|
6 | We take care of the heavy lifting behind the scenes be managing the registry, scaling it for your needs, to free your time to focus on the most important things at hand.

|
8 | ## Installation
|
9 |
|
10 | ```
|
11 | npm install @graphql-hive/client
|
12 | ```
|
13 |
|
14 | ## Basic Usage
|
15 |
|
16 | Hive Client comes with generic client and plugins for [Envelop](https://envelop.dev) and [Apollo Server](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-server)
|
17 |
|
18 | ### With GraphQL Yoga
|
19 |
|
20 | [GraphQL Yoga](https://www.the-guild.dev/graphql/yoga-server) is a cross-platform GraphQL sever built on top of the envelop engine.
|
21 |
|
22 | ```ts
|
23 | import { createYoga } from '@graphql-yoga/node'
|
24 | import { useHive } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
25 |
|
26 | const server = createYoga({
|
27 | plugins: [
|
28 | useHive({
|
29 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
30 | debug: true, // Debugging mode
|
31 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
32 | // Schema reporting
|
33 | reporting: {
|
34 | // feel free to set dummy values here
|
35 | author: 'Author of the schema version',
|
36 | commit: 'git sha or any identifier'
|
37 | },
|
38 | usage: true // Collects schema usage based on operations
|
39 | })
|
40 | ]
|
41 | })
|
42 |
|
43 | server.start()
|
44 | ```
|
45 |
|
46 | ### With Envelop
|
47 |
|
48 | If you're not familiar with Envelop - in "short" it's a lightweight JavaScript library for wrapping GraphQL execution layer and flow, allowing developers to develop, share and collaborate on GraphQL-related plugins, while filling the missing pieces in GraphQL implementations.
|
49 |
|
50 | Here's [more](https://github.com/dotansimha/envelop#envelop) on that topic.
|
51 |
|
52 | ```ts
|
53 | import { envelop } from '@envelop/core'
|
54 | import { useHive } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
55 |
|
56 | const envelopProxy = envelop({
|
57 | plugins: [
|
58 | useHive({
|
59 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
60 | debug: true, // Debugging mode
|
61 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
62 | // Schema reporting
|
63 | reporting: {
|
64 | // feel free to set dummy values here
|
65 | author: 'Author of the schema version',
|
66 | commit: 'git sha or any identifier'
|
67 | },
|
68 | usage: true // Collects schema usage based on operations
|
69 | })
|
70 | ]
|
71 | })
|
72 | ```
|
73 |
|
74 | ### With Apollo Server
|
75 |
|
76 | Thanks to the plugin system it's a matter of adding hiveApollo plugin to ApolloServer instance:
|
77 |
|
78 | ```ts
|
79 | import { ApolloServer } from 'apollo-server'
|
80 | import { hiveApollo } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
81 |
|
82 | const server = new ApolloServer({
|
83 | typeDefs,
|
84 | resolvers,
|
85 | plugins: [
|
86 | hiveApollo({
|
87 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
88 | debug: true, // Debugging mode
|
89 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
90 | reporting: {
|
91 | // feel free to set dummy values here
|
92 | author: 'Author of the latest change',
|
93 | commit: 'git sha or any identifier'
|
94 | },
|
95 | usage: true // Collects schema usage based on operations
|
96 | })
|
97 | ]
|
98 | })
|
99 | ```
|
100 |
|
101 | ### With Other Servers
|
102 |
|
103 | First you need to instantiate the Hive Client.
|
104 |
|
105 | The `collectUsage` method accepts the same arguments as execute function of graphql-js and returns a function that expects the execution result object.
|
106 |
|
107 | - `collectUsage(args)` - should be called when a GraphQL execution starts.
|
108 | - `finish(result)` (function returned by `collectUsage(args)`) - has to be invoked right after execution finishes.
|
109 |
|
110 | ```ts
|
111 | import express from 'express'
|
112 | import { graphqlHTTP } from 'express-graphql'
|
113 | import { createHive } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
114 |
|
115 | const app = express()
|
116 | const hive = createHive({
|
117 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
118 | debug: true, // Debugging mode
|
119 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
120 | reporting: {
|
121 | // feel free to set dummy values here
|
122 | author: 'Author of the latest change',
|
123 | commit: 'git sha or any identifier'
|
124 | },
|
125 | usage: true // Collects schema usage based operations
|
126 | })
|
127 |
|
128 | // Report Schema
|
129 | hive.reportSchema({ schema: yourSchema })
|
130 |
|
131 | app.post(
|
132 | '/graphql',
|
133 | graphqlHTTP({
|
134 | schema: yourSchema,
|
135 | async customExecuteFn(args) {
|
136 | // Collecting usage
|
137 | const finish = hive.collectUsage(args)
|
138 | const result = await execute(args)
|
139 | finish(result)
|
140 | return result
|
141 | }
|
142 | })
|
143 | )
|
144 | ```
|
145 |
|
146 | ### Using the registry when Stitching
|
147 |
|
148 | Stitching could be done in many ways, that's why `@graphql-hive/client` provide generic functions, not something dedicated for stitching. Unfortunately the implementation of gateway + polling is up to you.
|
149 |
|
150 | Prerequisites:
|
151 |
|
152 | - `HIVE_CDN_ENDPOINT` - the endpoint Hive generated for you in the previous step
|
153 | - `HIVE_CDN_KEY` - the access key
|
154 |
|
155 | The `createServicesFetcher` factory function returns another function that is responsible for fetching a list of services from Hive's high-availability endpoint.
|
156 |
|
157 | ```ts
|
158 | import { createServicesFetcher } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
159 |
|
160 | const fetchServices = createServicesFetcher({
|
161 | endpoint: process.env.HIVE_CDN_ENDPOINT,
|
162 | key: process.env.HIVE_CDN_KEY
|
163 | })
|
164 |
|
165 | // This is your GraphQL gateway with built-in polling mechanism, in which the `stitchServices` method is called every 10 seconds.
|
166 | startMyGraphQLGateway({
|
167 | // a function that resolves a list of services to stitch them together
|
168 | async stitchServices() {
|
169 | const services = await fetchServices()
|
170 |
|
171 | return services.map(service => {
|
172 | return {
|
173 | sdl: service.sdl,
|
174 | url: service.url,
|
175 | checksum: service.id // to check if service's schema was modified
|
176 | }
|
177 | })
|
178 | },
|
179 | pollingInSec: 10 // every 10s
|
180 | })
|
181 | ```
|
182 |
|
183 | ### Using the registry with Apollo Gateway
|
184 |
|
185 | You can connect your Apollo Gateway with Hive client.
|
186 |
|
187 | - `HIVE_CDN_ENDPOINT` - the endpoint Hive generated for you in the previous step
|
188 | - `HIVE_CDN_KEY` - the access
|
189 |
|
190 | ```ts
|
191 | import { createSupergraphManager } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
192 | import { ApolloGateway } from '@apollo/gateway'
|
193 | import { ApolloServer } from 'apollo-server'
|
194 |
|
195 | const gateway = new ApolloGateway({
|
196 | // Apollo Gateway will fetch Supergraph from GraphQL Hive CDN
|
197 | supergraphSdl: createSupergraphManager({
|
198 | endpoint: HIVE_CDN_ENDPOINT,
|
199 | key: HIVE_CDN_KEY,
|
200 | pollIntervalInMs: 15_000
|
201 | })
|
202 | })
|
203 |
|
204 | const server = new ApolloServer({
|
205 | gateway
|
206 | })
|
207 |
|
208 | server.listen().then(({ url }) => {
|
209 | console.log(`🚀 Server ready at ${url}`)
|
210 | })
|
211 | ```
|
212 |
|
213 | ## Usage Reporting configuration
|
214 |
|
215 | ### Client Info
|
216 |
|
217 | The schema usage operation information can be enriched with meta information that will be displayed on the Hive dashboard in order to get a better understanding of the origin of an executed GraphQL operation.
|
218 |
|
219 | ### GraphQL Yoga Example
|
220 |
|
221 | ```ts
|
222 | import { createYoga } from '@graphql-yoga/node'
|
223 | import { useHive } from '@graphql-hive/client'
|
224 |
|
225 | const server = createYoga({
|
226 | plugins: [
|
227 | useHive({
|
228 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
229 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
230 | usage: {
|
231 | clientInfo(ctx: { req: Request }) {
|
232 | const name = ctx.req.headers.get('x-graphql-client-name')
|
233 | const version = ctx.req.headers.get('x-graphql-client-version') ?? 'missing'
|
234 |
|
235 | if (name) {
|
236 | return { name, version }
|
237 | }
|
238 |
|
239 | return null
|
240 | }
|
241 | }
|
242 | })
|
243 | ]
|
244 | })
|
245 |
|
246 | server.start()
|
247 | ```
|
248 |
|

255 | const envelopProxy = envelop({
|
256 | plugins: [
|
257 | useHive({
|
258 | enabled: true, // Enable/Disable Hive Client
|
259 | token: 'YOUR-TOKEN',
|
260 | usage: {
|
261 | clientInfo(ctx: { req: Request }) {
|
262 | const name = ctx.req.headers.get('x-graphql-client-name')
|
263 | const version = ctx.req.headers.get('x-graphql-client-version') ?? 'missing'
