send introspection query

This will generate a graphql_schema.json which will be used to safely type your GraphQL queries/mutations.

Usage

Create the Apollo Client

Apollo.re

open ApolloLinks;
open ApolloInMemoryCache;

type dataObject = {. "__typename": string, "id": string, "key": string};

/* Create an InMemoryCache */
let inMemoryCache = createInMemoryCache(~dataIdFromObject=(obj: dataObject) => obj##id, ());

/* Create an HTTP Link */
let httpLink =
 ApolloLinks.createHttpLink(~uri="http://localhost:3010/graphql", ());

module Client =
 ReasonApollo.CreateClient(
   {
     let apolloClient =
       ReasonApollo.createApolloClient(
         ~cache=inMemoryCache /* restore method can be piped e.g. inMemoryCache |> restore(window.__APOLLO__) */,
         ~link=httpLink,
         ()
       );
   }
 );

Query

MyComponent.re

/* Create a GraphQL Query by using the graphql_ppx */ 
module PokemonQuery = [%graphql {|
  query getPokemon($name: String!){
      pokemon(name: $name) {
          name
      }
  }
|}]; 

module Query = Client.Instance.Query;

let make = (_children) => {
/* ... */
render: (_) => {
  let pokemonQuery = PokemonQuery.make(~name="Pikachu", ());
  <Query query=pokemonQuery>
    ...(response, parse) => {
      switch response {
         | Loading => <div> (Utils.ste("Loading")) </div>
         | Failed(error) => <div> (Utils.ste(error)) </div>
         | Loaded(result) => <div> (Utils.ste(parse(result)##user##name)) </div>
    }})
  </Query>
}
}

Mutation

MyMutation.re

module PokemonMutation = [%graphql {|
  mutation addPokemon($name: String!) {
      addPokemon(name: $name) {
          name
      }
  }
|}];

module Mutation = Client.Instance.Mutation;

let make = (_children) => {
/* ... */
initialState: {
  parse
},
reducer: (action, state) =>
  switch (action) {
  | AddParser(parse) => ReasonReact.Update({...state, parse})
},
render: ({reduce, state: {parse}}) => {  
  <Mutation>
    ...((
      mutate /* Mutation to call */, 
      result /* Result of your mutation */
    ) => {
        let mutationResponse = switch result {
          | NotCalled => <div>  (Utils.ste("Not Called")) </div>
          | Loading => <div> (Utils.ste("Loading")) </div>
          | Loaded(response) => <div> (Utils.ste(parse(result)##addPokemon##name ++ " addded")) </div>
          | Failed(error) => <div> (Utils.ste(error)) </div>
        };
      <div>
        <button onClick=((_mouseEvent) => {
            let pokemonMutation = PokemonMutation.make(~name="Reason", ());
            mutate(pokemonMutation);
            reduce(() => AddParser(pokemonMutation##parse), ());
          })> 
          (Utils.ste("Add Pokemon")) 
        </button>
        <div> (mutationResponse) </div>
      </div>
    })
  </Mutation>
}
}
