• By the community, for the community: GraphQL Server's development is driven by the needs of developers
• Simplicity: by keeping things simple, GraphQL Server is easier to use, easier to contribute to, and more secure
• Performance: GraphQL Server is well-tested and production-ready - no modifications needed

Usage

Express

import express from 'express';
import bodyParser from 'body-parser';
import { graphqlExpress } from 'apollo-server-express';

const myGraphQLSchema = // ... define or import your schema here!
const PORT = 3000;

const app = express();

// bodyParser is needed just for POST.
app.use('/graphql', bodyParser.json(), graphqlExpress({ schema: myGraphQLSchema }));

app.listen(PORT);

Connect

import connect from 'connect';
import bodyParser from 'body-parser';
import { graphqlConnect } from 'apollo-server-express';
import http from 'http';

const PORT = 3000;

const app = connect();

// bodyParser is needed just for POST.
app.use('/graphql', bodyParser.json());
app.use('/graphql', graphqlConnect({ schema: myGraphQLSchema }));

http.createServer(app).listen(PORT);
