graphql-zeus VS Encore

When I asked this in StackOverflow over a year ago I reached the solution of using graphql + graphql-zeus.

You can think of GraphQL Zeus as Prisma for the frontend: it writes GraphQL queries out of JavaScript objects and produces the proper return types.

graphql-zeus: You write your graphql queries using a JavaScript object like syntax. Looks cool, but I think it's too big of a burden on the team to have to give up writing queries using graphql-tag/gql.

https://github.com/graphql-editor/graphql-zeus generates subscription code and in generated code you'll find simple apiSubscription function you can use/copy

You can do this with GraphQL too:

I did a 5 min talk about these newer breeds of codegen tools (where it's a single client SDK that does automatic return type inference based on the input args), it's really neat:

In this tutorial you will create a REST API for a URL Shortener service using Encore for TypeScript, a new way of building fully type-safe and production-ready distributed systems in TypeScript using declarative infrastructure.

At Encore, we've made it easier by making Pub/Sub is a native component in Encore's Open Source Infrastructure SDK.

⭐️ Support the project by starring Encore on GitHub.

Very cool. Reminds me of the encore framework, also written in go: https://github.com/encoredev/encore

Need to spend some more time looking into these go based frameworks, they seem great for quick prototyping

package url import ( "context" "testing" ) // TestShortenAndRetrieve - test that the shortened URL is stored and retrieved from database. func TestShortenAndRetrieve(t *testing.T) { testURL := "https://github.com/encoredev/encore" sp := ShortenParams{URL: testURL} resp, err := Shorten(context.Background(), &sp) if err != nil { t.Fatal(err) } wantURL := testURL if resp.URL != wantURL { t.Errorf("got %q, want %q", resp.URL, wantURL) } firstURL := resp gotURL, err := Get(context.Background(), firstURL.ID) if err != nil { t.Fatal(err) } if *gotURL != *firstURL { t.Errorf("got %v, want %v", *gotURL, *firstURL) } }

For something in the same vein but for Go, there is Encore: https://encore.dev / https://github.com/encoredev/encore

The framework is Open Source and the Encore platform provides free cloud hosting for hobby projects.

Encore is a backend framework for creating cloud backend applications where infrastructure is provisioned automatically from business logic.
