vite-plugin-graphql-strings

Based on vite-plugin-graphql, but somewhat simpler. I prefer simple strings for my queries. This versions has a lot of limitation and probably isn't what you are looking for.

While it isn't hard to get strings from a .graphql file by looking for empty lines, this plugin combines the fragments with your query, as long as the fragments are found in the same document.

Installation

npm i vite-plugin-graphql-strings

Usage

const graphqlPlugin = require('vite-plugin-graphql-strings')

const config = {
  plugins: [
    graphqlStringsPlugin({
      exportUpperCase: true, // default
    }),
  ],
}

When exportToUpperCase the query names conventionally written in PascalCase like GetAllPosts will be converted to uppercase as is the convention for Javascript constants resulting in GET_ALL_POSTS with the previous example.

Now all the files ends with .gql or .graphql will be handled by vite-plugin-graphql-strings.

In your app

import { SomeAmazingQuery } from './queries.graphql'

That will be a simple string representing the query object. Your queries can be in separate files or a single queries.graphql, but because the queries are processed into strings at compile time, they cannot import from other documents, so #import will be ignored.
