ZeroQL VS graphql-client

If you have any questions or want to find more detailed instructions on how to use the library, you can find them on Github.

The ZeroQL repository is here. Feel free to create issues and ask questions.

I have said that the ZeroQL has excellent performance. But how excellent is it? The repository contains a benchmark. It compares raw graphql request, StrawberryShake, and ZeroQL.

Meet the ZeroQL! It is C# friendly GraphQL client with a Linq-like interface and excellent performance equivalent to a simple HTTP call.

An example of a Snowflake API request using C#/.NET. This example uses the C#/.NET standard library, so it doesn’t require additional dependencies; however, in production, you could use a library like graphql-client for stronger typing.

The integration test server allows you to create a HttpClient that has a special HttpMessageHandler that, rather than using TCP sockets, communicates directly with the in-memory server. All the usual serialisation still occurs. We can very easily use this to execute a GraphQL query, manually forming a HttpRequestMessage, but to make things a little easier, we can use GraphQL.NET's GraphQL.Client package. With this in play, we can create a simple test using the HttpClient we created earlier:

Here is a short snippet how to set up proxy with GraphQL.Client in C#. In this example I use a local proxy for debugging.

We will make use of GraphQL.Client(v 3.2.0) library to consume the GraphQL API. To install the package, right click the solution in the solution explorer and select Manage NuGet Packages for Solution. Under the Browse section, search for GraphQL.Client and click on it, then in the preview panel click the Install button:
