Connection Filter Plugin

For example:

https://github.com/graphile-contrib/postgraphile-plugin-conn...

and

https://github.com/graphile/pg-aggregates

Have a look at PostGraphile (in case you are using JavaScript and a PostgreSQL DB). With the advanced connection filter plugin (https://github.com/graphile-contrib/postgraphile-plugin-connection-filter) you get an automatically created filter for multiple items and their connection.

The postgraphile-plugin-connection-filter I referred to is up-front about the fact that the filters it generates could allow a caller to form queries that would bring your server to its knees. So I'd have to do some work to limit what predicates were allowed.

More examples here: https://github.com/graphile-contrib/postgraphile-plugin-conn...

(Personally, I think their docs are good at telling you how to use it but fairly bad at showing how great the tool is)

I really line the approach used here https://github.com/graphile-contrib/postgraphile-plugin-connection-filter

You're right we need to improve the documentation on this. We do have an example though:

We have also added the OpenAPI spec on the roadmap however, every REST API we have integrated so far has been custom.

The REST connector allows you to have full-control over how it connects to the API:

We’re a small dev team based in Sydney and in between client projects we’ve been working on our own open-source tool, Graphweaver. Graphweaver allows you to combine multiple data sources (Databases, Rest APIs, Saas platforms) and expose a single GraphQL API. It’s a bit like Hasura or Step Zen but with more of a code-first flexibility. It can take your database and with a single import command, generate your code and create a backend.

Turn multiple data sources into a single GraphQL API Graphweaver is a GraphQL Gateway that can connect many data sources together to create an API. It can be used to create a headless CMS, an API Gateway, or used as a Backend for mobile apps.

GraphQL is the leading method of querying APIs in modern web development. Yet, developers face a common challenge using GraphQL: managing the types and structures of the data returned by their queries. Dealing with undefined values and casting partial types to make the Typescript compiler happy is frustrating. Or constructing types for each kind of response. But, there's a solution that alleviates this pain, boosts development speed, and enhances code quality – GraphQL Codegen. This powerful open-source tool automates the generation of code for GraphQL APIs. GraphQL Codegen produces types, queries, and hooks from the GraphQL schema. No more manual repetitive coding or uncertainty about types. In this post, we'll explore how GraphQL Codegen works, and how we use it in our open-source tool Graphweaver to facilitate a silky smooth developer experience. So let's dive in and uncover how this tool is reshaping the way we build applications.
