wapm-cli VS Graphene

To actually compile this we can use a tool called WABT (WebAssembly Binary Toolkit). It's basically a mess that requires CMake and I couldn't get it to run on WSL and I wasn't going to install MinGW. Instead there's a nice tool called WAPM from Wasmer which works like npm for webassembly packages and since it's been compiled down to webassembly we can run it in any environment. In fact we don't even need to add configuration so long as wapm is installed. We can run wax wat2wasm -- wat/mat.wat -o wasm/mat.wasm. wax is like npx for npm. If you're wondering the command we give wax is defined by the wasmer/wabt package: https://wapm.io/wasmer/wabt. Also for some reason you can't prefix local paths with ./ so wax wat2wasm -- ./wat/mat.wat doesn't work which tool me a while to figure out. Anyway this provides a nice simple compile environment if you want to work on raw WAT files.

That's the main reason we should start using WebAssembly for distributing and using packages.

Shamless plug: Wasmer [1] and WAPM [2] could help a lot on this quest!

There's WAPM

If it's buildable for the WebAssembly WASI target, consider also distributing it through WAPM.

I don't know if many people have heard of it, but there's actually a WebAssembly Package Manager. It's similar to crates.io, except you upload WebAssembly binaries written in any language instead of Rust source code!

You can see this paying off with wapm, which lets you download applications that would have normally required compilation for your environment and run them anywhere with a supported runtime, which is imo pretty neat.

One step closer to the day when I can put actix-web creations up on WAPM so "Just type wax my-cool-thing to try it out" can be one of the distribution options.

I've added limited support to run wapm.io directly from the Terminal. Examples of commands that work well are wapm cowsay {Text} and wapm uuid.

And gqlgen is not alone in this. We found several more GraphQL frameworks that don’t take it upon themselves to address this problem. Widely used GraphQL server implementations, such as graphql-go/graphql and Python’s graphene, have the exact same gap of exposing messages of unexpected errors by default.

There are multiple Python-based GraphQL libraries and they all vary slightly from each other. For the longest time, Graphene was a natural choice as it was the oldest and was used in production at different companies, but now other newer libraries have also started gaining some traction.

> But you need to know that Wasmer and its sibling projects will stay free forever. We are open source lovers, all of us, and we have a strong background on working on open source projects before joining Wasmer too.

That's great. I'm sure the closed source paid 10x faster editions of the graphene Python GraphQL server written by Syrus "CEO of Graphene" and CEO of wasmer will be open sourced in this spirit.

CloudinaryField is a custom model field not a django built in one and graphene-python doesn't know what do with it. See the list of types it does https://github.com/graphql-python/graphene/tree/master/graphene/types

Thanks for the reply, I was looking at Strawberry a bit but not enough documentation for a graphql noob like me... Hate to turn this into tech support but could you potentially answer a question for me? I'm having a really hard time figuring out how to do this. Given this example: https://github.com/graphql-python/graphene/blob/master/examples/simple_example.py and a slight modification:

Graphene was one of the first (if not the first) lib built on top of graphql-core to provide an easy to use api to build graphql applications. It's been around since 2015 and has a lot of integrations built for it (e.g. Django, SQL Alchemy, etc).
