A set of utils for faster development of GraphQL tools
npm install @graphql-tools/webpack-loaderA webpack loader to preprocess GraphQL Documents (operations, fragments and SDL)
Slightly different fork of graphql-tag/loader.
yarn add @graphql-tools/webpack-loader
How is it different from graphql-tag? It removes locations entirely, doesn't include sources (string content of imported files), no warnings about duplicated fragment names and supports more custom scenarios.
- noDescription (_default: false_) - removes descriptions
- esModule (_default: false_) - uses import and export statements instead of CommonJS
_To add support for importing .graphql/.gql files, see Webpack loading and preprocessing below._
Given a file MyQuery.graphql
``graphql`
query MyQuery {
...
}
If you have configured the webpack @graphql-tools/webpack-loader, you can import modules containing graphQL queries. The imported value will be the pre-built AST.
`ts`
import MyQuery from './query.graphql'
Preprocessing GraphQL queries and fragments into ASTs at build time can greatly improve load times.
#### Webpack loading and preprocessing
Using the included @graphql-tools/webpack-loader it is possible to maintain query logic that is separate from the rest of your application logic. With the loader configured, imported graphQL files will be converted to AST during the webpack build process.
`js``
{
loaders: [
{
test: /\.(graphql|gql)$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: '@graphql-tools/webpack-loader',
options: {
/ ... /
}
}
],
}
