Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
apollo-server-core
Advanced tools
The apollo-server-core package is a core library for Apollo Server, which is a community-driven, open-source GraphQL server. It works with various Node.js HTTP server frameworks and provides features necessary to run a GraphQL server, such as schema definition, request processing, and query execution. It's designed to simplify the process of building efficient, scalable GraphQL APIs.
Schema Definition
Allows defining a GraphQL schema using the GraphQL schema language. This is the first step in setting up a GraphQL server.
const { ApolloServer, gql } = require('apollo-server');
const typeDefs = gql`
type Query {
hello: String
}
`;
const server = new ApolloServer({ typeDefs });
Resolvers Implementation
Defines the technique for fetching the types defined in the schema. This code sample shows how to implement a simple resolver.
const resolvers = {
Query: {
hello: () => 'Hello world!',
},
};
const server = new ApolloServer({ typeDefs, resolvers });
Server Setup and Running
Illustrates how to start the Apollo Server and listen on a port. It logs the URL where the server can be accessed.
server.listen().then(({ url }) => {
console.log(`đ Server ready at ${url}`);
});
Integrating with Middleware
Shows how to integrate Apollo Server with an Express application using `apollo-server-express`, demonstrating Apollo Server's flexibility with HTTP server frameworks.
const { ApolloServer } = require('apollo-server-express');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const server = new ApolloServer({ typeDefs, resolvers });
server.applyMiddleware({ app });
app.listen({ port: 4000 }, () =>
console.log(`đ Server ready at http://localhost:4000${server.graphqlPath}`)
);
An Express middleware created by the GraphQL team. It allows the creation of GraphQL servers with Express. Compared to apollo-server-core, it is more tightly coupled with Express and does not offer as extensive a feature set or plugin ecosystem as Apollo Server.
A fully-featured GraphQL Server with focus on easy setup, performance & great developer experience. It is built on top of Apollo Server and other libraries, offering a more opinionated setup with sensible defaults.
A highly flexible and lightweight tool for building GraphQL HTTP servers. Unlike apollo-server-core, GraphQL Helix is not tied to any specific HTTP server framework and focuses on providing a low-level API for handling GraphQL requests.
