WunderGraph Postgres Starter

This example demonstrates how to use WunderGraph with Next.js & Postgres. We are going to make your database accessible through JSON-RPC to your Next.js app.

This example also make use of Subscriptions & Live Queries. Subscriptions and Live Queries are a fundamental feature to build modern, reactive applications. WunderGraph supports GraphQL Subscriptions and Live Queries (via server-side polling) out of the box, no additional configuration is required.

Getting Started

  1. Install the dependencies and run the complete example in one command:
npm install && npm start

After a while, a new browser tab will open, and you can start exploring the application. If no tab is open, navigate to http://localhost:3000.

You should now see a greeting from one of our Founders. =)

Running WunderGraph will automatically introspect the database and generate an API for you. You can add more Operations (e.g. Queries or Mutations) by adding more "*.graphql" files to the directory ./wundergraph/operations. Each file becomes an Operation. The Operation name is not relevant, the file name is.

Updating the Database Schema

Change the schema.prisma file and run npm run migrate %your_migration_name%, e.g. npm run migrate "add pets".

Seeding the Database

Once you've defined one or more Mutations in ./wundergraph/operations (see CreateUser.graphql as an example), you're able to use the generated TypeScript client to seed the Database.

Modify ./seed/seed.ts and run npm run seed.

Cleanup

npm run cleanup
