Back to business: fortunately, Postman has built-in full support for GraphQL! 🎉Let's take a quick tour of the capabilities by exploring the Rick and Morty API. To get started, create a new HTTP request in Postman. Set the request mode to POST and the URL to https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql. Now; in the body section, select GraphQL. You should end up with something like this:

import "@/styles/globals.css"; import type { AppProps } from "next/app"; import { ApolloClient, InMemoryCache, ApolloProvider } from "@apollo/client"; const client = new ApolloClient({ uri: "https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql", cache: new InMemoryCache(), }); export default function App({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) { return ( ApolloProvider> ); }

import React from 'react'; import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client'; import './index.css'; import App from './App'; import { ApolloClient, ApolloProvider, InMemoryCache } from '@apollo/client' const client = new ApolloClient({ uri: "https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql", cache: new InMemoryCache(), }) const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')); root.render( );

I have a next.js app that uses dynamic routes. Here is the repo on Github https://github.com/ChristianOConnor/graphql-next-api-tester. Run the app by cloning the repo and cd-ing into the root directory, running npm install then npm run dev. It works perfectly. It's a next.js app that does graphql calls to https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql, and renders them out into a table. You first click on the "List of characters" button in the middle of the home page: [![enter image description here][1]][1]

The @graphql-codegen library is a bridge between your GraphQL schema and the actual code you write. It automates the generation of boilerplate code, ensuring that your data fetching layer is always up to date with your content structure.

In typescript and typescript-resolvers plugin v4.0.1, we have reverted the default ID Scalar input type to string. Read the pull request for more details.

See https://github.com/dotansimha/graphql-code-generator with @graphql-codegen/typescript-graphql-request plugin

Graphql Codegen is a code generation library for GraphQL that enables developers to generate custom code. It provides us developers with the ability to generate type definitions, query builders, documentation, and more by analyzing our GraphQL schemas. This makes it easier and faster to build GraphQL applications and reduces the time spent coding.

It is already incoming, with an example in the repository. 😇 https://github.com/dotansimha/graphql-code-generator/pull/8863

The actual package is @ graphql-codegen/cli

GraphQL Codegen generates frontend types and React hooks from our GraphQL request definitions.

There are two main approaches to keeping the types of the GraphQL schema and entities in business logic in sync. You can generate the schema based on your TypeScript code (e.g. TypeGraphQL), or you can generate types based on your schema (e.g. GraphQL Code Generator). We opted for the latter since it slotted right into our existing GraphQL server implementation using Apollo Server.

For querying in React make sure you use GraphQL code generator https://www.the-guild.dev/graphql/codegen
