  Project mention: Using Rest Client for Seeding Database | dev.to | 2021-04-11

  The Met has a really robust API of their collection - over 470,000 distinct objects! Talk about a lot of data! I needed to figure out how to get at least a sampling of this data into my backend API. I found just what I was looking for in RestClient. In theory it is super easy to use and I will give a few quick steps below. I say in theory because I think it depends on how well set up the API is that you are pulling your data from. If you are wondering, the Met's was really easy sometimes and really hard others - some of the art objects were missing attributes that I wanted to pull so I had hand hold my seed file during some of the departments. For brevity sake, I will use one of the easier bit of data to pull - the Met's list of departments. (seeding the art objects themselves was another story all together!)

  Project mention: How to build a solid Go Graphql application quickly. | reddit.com/r/graphql | 2021-02-04

  I have not tried gqlgen yet. Just by comparing benchmarks at https://github.com/the-benchmarker/graphql-benchmarks/blob/develop/rates.md it looks like GGql is faster by comparing to graphql-go. I'd love to see gqlgen get added to those benchmarks or GGql added to the gqlgen comparisons.
