gql-defrag

gql-defrag

Do you have complex GraphQL queries that are made up of lot of fragments? Do you want to figure out who is querying all those fields? Then gql-defrag can help you. It takes in the text of all your queries and fragments, and returns a new query that inlines all the fragments and labels fields with their origin.

Example:

>>> from gql_defrag import Defragmenter
>>> defrag = Defragmenter(["""
... query SomeQuery {
...     field
...     name
...     ...SomeFragment
... }
...
... fragment SomeFragment on SomeType {
...     fragmentField
...     field
... }
... """])
>>> print(defrag.defragment("SomeQuery"))
query SomeQuery {
  field @gql_defrag_source(name: "SomeQuery") @gql_defrag_source(name: "SomeQuery -> SomeFragment")
  fragmentField @gql_defrag_source(name: "SomeQuery -> SomeFragment")
  name @gql_defrag_source(name: "SomeQuery")
}

Programmatic usage

gql_defrag.Defragmenter(documents: Sequence[str])

Instantiate a Defragmenter to start defragmenting some queries. Pass in a series of GraphQL documents. Each may contain one or more queries, fragments, or both.

Defragmenter.add_document(document: str) -> None

Add a document to the Defragmenter. The document may contain any number of queries or fragments.

Defragmenter.defragment(query_name: str, *, add_source: bool = True) -> str

Return a defragmented version of the operation (query, mutation, or subscription) named query_name. If add_source is True, add @gql_defrag_source directives explaining what sequence of fragments triggered each field.

Defragmenter.defragment_all(*, add_source: bool = True) -> Iterable[tuple[str, str]]

Yields pairs of (query name, defragmented query) for all operations that the Defragmenter knows about.

Command-line usage

$ python -m gql_defrag --help
usage: __main__.py [-h] [--js-dir JS_DIR] [--graphql-dir GRAPHQL_DIR] [--relay-dir RELAY_DIR] [--output-dir OUTPUT_DIR] [--include-source]

Defrag GraphQL queries

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --js-dir JS_DIR       Directory with JavaScript files containing GraphQL fragments and queries
  --graphql-dir GRAPHQL_DIR
                        Directory with GraphQL files with .graphql extensions
  --relay-dir RELAY_DIR
                        Directory with Relay files with .graphql.ts extensions
  --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
                        Directory to write defragmented queries to
  --include-source      Include verbose source information

The command-line interface collects GraphQL queries from one or more directories and outputs defragmented queries to an output directory.

There are three ways to find GraphQL queries:

• --graphql-dir looks at a directory containing .graphql files that contain GraphQL queries
• --js-dir looks at a directory containing JavaScript or TypeScript files that contain pieces of GraphQL within template literals prefixed with graphql or gql. The code looks at files with the extensions .js, .jsx, .ts, and .tsx.
• --relay-dir looks at a directory containing Relay generated files with the .graphql.ts extension.

Defragmented files are placed in the directory specified by --output-dir. If the directory does not exist, it is created. The file names are of the form <query name>.graphql.

If --include-source is given, @gql_defrag_source are added with precise source information for each field.
