graphql-yoga VS mercurius

We have migration guide try it out! We can't wait answer your questions and get your feedback on how we can make GraphQL Yoga even more better!

Within our GraphQL Yoga monorepository we have a subscription package which includes a maintained (and fully TypeScript typed) PubSub implementation. https://github.com/dotansimha/graphql-yoga/tree/main/packages/subscription / https://the-guild.dev/graphql/yoga-server/v3/features/subscriptions#pubsub

It's easy to do with a Serverless Function and with GraphQL Yoga.

And since Yoga server works perfectly with Envelop plugins, a verity of error handling and security plugins are available on the plugin hub

In today's article we are going to create a GraphQL api using the Koa framework together with the GraphQL Yoga library and Pothos. In addition, we will use Kysely, which is a query builder entirely written in TypeScript.

I want to share my approach to handling errors in GraphQL resolvers (I use GraphQL Yoga on the server-side) and pass them to the frontend side (where I use Svelte + @urql/svelte).

Last, in case you just want a simple GraphQL server where you don’t have to setup anything and subscriptions work out of the box (using SSE), you might wanna check out GraphQL Yoga v2 (Disclaimer: I am maintaining this library).

What is your server setup like? Have you tried the latest GraphQL Yoga ? It has everything configured OOTB including subscriptions.

Not that I know of. But here are a few things that may be of interest.

Redwood's GraphQL API is built on Yoga (we collaborate tightly with The Guild) — https://www.graphql-yoga.com You just need a GraphQL Client, which The Guild already has an option ready for you https://apollo-angular.com (Note: Apollo or other clients fine as well.)

Here's an example "How To" about connecting Next (React) with Redwood: https://community.redwoodjs.com/t/how-to-connect-a-next-js-f...

I'm a co-founder of Redwood and help lead the project so I can say as a matter of fact we a highly collaborative and enjoy (and support) exploratory projects. It's a priority for us to better demonstrate the power of Redwood's API through examples. If you'd be interested in digging in collaboratively with the community, I can help connect the dots. Just kick things off over here and tag me @thedavidprice: https://community.redwoodjs.com

No pressure at all! Just wanted you to know the invitation is open. Anytime.

GraphQL Gateway is primarily responsible for serving GraphQL queries to consumers. It takes a query from a client, breaks it into smaller sub-queries, and executes that plan by proxying calls to the appropriate downstream subgraphs. When we started our journey, there was only Apollo Federation in the arena, and we used it. Still, now you can look at other options (e.g. Mercurius, Conductor, Hot Chocolate, Wundergraph, Hasura Remote Schemas), compare benchmarks and decide what's important and preferable for your needs. The Gateway provides a unified API for consumers while giving backend engineers flexibility and service isolation.

If you're using Fastify with Mercurius as your GraphQL adapter, you may be looking for some advanced usages. In this article, we'll explore a real world example with Dynamic GQL queries with Mercurius.

Loader: it is a built-in DataLoader-Like solution that is quick to set up and use.

In this post I will show you how to implement NestJS😻 with GraphQL in code first mode, using Mercurius and the "platform" to Fastify.

What this does is to overwrite or augment the types exposed by the pointed module, and can be used (for example) when relying on autogenerated code. One interesting case of this is GraphQL to TypeScript code generation, and how this is integrated with the amazing Mercurius library (made by some of my colleagues at NearForm! 😜).

When moving away from Apollo Server, and you're looking for a replacement built with JavaScript or TypeScript, let me give you some options. If you want to keep building your GraphQL API schema first, you might want to consider Mercurius (which relies on Fastify) or GraphQL Yoga. If you're going to build your GraphQL API code or resolver first, have a look at TypeGraphQL or Nexus. Alternatively, there are great GraphQL-as-a-Service solutions such as StepZen in case you no longer want to build, maintain and host your own GraphQL API.

Let's start with data. We live in amazing times and it's really easy and cheap (or free) to get started with storing and working with data online. Take for example a PlanetScale MySQL-compatible database, Fastify Node.js Server, Prisma database mapper and a GraphQL connector like Mercurius and you have an entire backend stack. For this example we assume you already have a backend or you want to connect to a 3rd party database like the GitHub GraphQL API.

In this chapter, we assume a basic understanding of GraphQL and focus on how to work with the built-in @nestjs/graphql module. The GraphQLModule can be configured to use Apollo server (with the @nestjs/apollo driver) and Mercurius (with the @nestjs/mercurius). We provide official integrations for these proven GraphQL packages to provide a simple way to use GraphQL with Nest. You can also build your own dedicated driver (read more on that here).

Why would I want to use Apollo Client? So far in my career I have used some server graphql scaffolding (webonyx/graphql-php for PHP and mercurius for Node) and just used the fetch API (or whatever ajax API around XMLHttpRequest) against that server with the body being an object with

Only for people who are clueless. Apollo server is probably the worst node.js server to use for your graphql schema. It's terribly slow. You should look into https://mercurius.dev
