graphql-code-generator VS graphql-eslint

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

You can read more on this blog post and also check out the new graphql-eslint website (with the online interactive playground)

GraphQL ESLint for validation, linting, and checking for best practices and conventions (like all resolvers must be camel case!!! 💀).

## Next Steps Check out [the roadmap for the V4 version](https://github.com/B2o5T/graphql-eslint/issues/981), the next major will be released once ESLint 9 will out and of course, propose your suggestions 🙂. Don't forget to give a star ⭐️ for [GraphQL-ESLint](https://github.com/B2o5T/graphql-eslint) if you like it! And Happy New 2023 Year! 🎄🎉 🥂 ### Community Thanks to our contributors @FloEdelmann, @TuvalSimha and @tshedor.

This is cool. How much overlap does it have and/or not have with https://github.com/B2o5T/graphql-eslint ?

Those could be standards that are specific for a single codebase or shared in the community. As the GraphQL ecosystem is growing quickly, we decided it's important to create a modern integration between GraphQL and ESLint, that supports all the modern needs of a GraphQL developer: graphql-eslint.

Want to have ESLint support to enforce standards and maintain sanity across your team, try something like GraphQL ESLint and set it up with your preferred conventions.

GraphQL ESLint

In the previous blog, we had started going through "The GraphQL Stack" that we use at Timecampus going through various libraries and tools like VSCode, GraphQL Config, VSCode GraphQL, GraphQL ESLint, GraphQL Inspector, Typescript, GraphQL Helix and GraphQL Codegen. In this blog, we will continue our journey exploring from where we left off.
