Server-side rendering utils for graphql-hooks
npm install graphql-hooks-ssr
or
yarn add graphql-hooks-ssr
The below example is for fastify but the same principles apply for express & hapi.
const { GraphQLClient, ClientContext } = require('graphql-hooks')
const memCache = require('graphql-hooks-memcache')
const { getInitialState } = require('graphql-hooks-ssr')
const { ServerLocation } = require('@reach/router')
// NOTE: use can use any 'fetch' polyfill
const fetch = require('isomorphic-unfetch')
app.get('/', async (req, reply) => {
// Step 1: Create the client inside the request handler
const client = new GraphQLClient({
url: 'https://domain.com/graphql',
cache: memCache(), // NOTE: a cache is required for SSR
fetch
})
// Step 2: Provide the `client`
// Optional: If your app contains a router, you'll need to tell it which route the user is on
// based on the request.. this example uses @reach/router
const App = (
<ClientContext.Provider value={client}>
<ServerLocation url={req.raw.url}>
{/* Your App component goes here */}
</ServerLocation>
</ClientContext.Provider>
)
// Step 3: Use the getInitialState method from graphql-hooks-ssr
// Pass in App + GraphQL client
const initialState = await getInitialState({ App, client })
// Step 4: Render the your App - all queries will now be cached
const content = ReactDOMServer.renderToString(App)
// Step 5: Serialise the initialState object + include it in the html payload
const html = `
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="app-root">${content}</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.__INITIAL_STATE__=${JSON.stringify(initialState).replace(
/</g,
'\\u003c'
)};
</script>
</body>
</html>
`
reply.type('text/html').send(html)
})
getInitialState(options)Returns the serialisable cache after fetching all queries.
