galapagos

An implementation of the GraphQL specification in Clojure.

Build Status

Overview

The goal of this library is to expose the data of your Clojure application in a way that enables GraphQL clients to interact with it. Special care is taken to make data access as efficient as possible - streamlined, concurrent data fetching is provided by the muse library.

See links for more information on GraphQL and the ideas behind it.

Status

Galapagos is still very much pre-alpha software and nearly everything is subject to change. The first iteration suffers from two problems:

  • The schema is defined using a rather complicated, macro-based DSL. There's a lot of metadata being attached to the symbols that make up the various type definitions, which makes schema introspection overly complex. It would be better to just use straight-up Clojure data structures.
  • Data fetching has to happen using core.async. This is a design choice that a library like this should not make.

Queries

Directives and query variables are missing. Validation is lacking. Support for muse's query batching (a solution to the [1+N query problem] 1) is not yet implemented.

Mutation

Mutation operations are not currently supported.
