[shadikkhan]

Is there any way graphql-http can work with graphql mesh?

If you're talking about the server - Mesh uses graphql-yoga as the server. It is fully compliant with the GraphQL over HTTP spec, so there should be no benefit of using graphql-http instead.

However, if you're talking about the client - they are compatible, you can use graphql-http client against a Mesh gateway.

Why do you have to use graphql-http? Whats the requirement?

As per AppDynamics docs - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.appdynamics.com/appd/24.x/24.2/en/application-monitoring/configure-instrumentation/transaction-detection-rules/custom-match-rules/node-js-business-transaction-detection__;!!CQl3mcHX2A!HtWF77cCHzANfzbvT5fil1alrG0upBZUvjKeCceEQiOzOJy2tFhJHTbBJBa3I9L1DIFGwpMnKwE9r5fgbM8O$

As per their recommendation - Here are the instructions for setting up GraphQL in a Node.js application

Hmm, I dont see no code examples that are specific to graphql-http or @apollo/server there. Can you point me to them? Sorry, I dont know what AppDynamics is so I dont have the context.

Unfortunatly there is not much code there form appdynamics, after installing their package just have to add this at the beging when server start
require("appdynamics").profile({ controllerHostName: process.env.APPD_HOSTNAME, controllerPort: process.env.APPD_PORT, controllerSslEnabled: process.env.APPD_SSL_ENABLED, accountName: process.env.APPD_ACCOUNT_NAME, accountAccessKey: process.env.APPD_ACCOUNT_KEY, applicationName: process.env.APPD_APP_NAME, tierName: process.env.APPD_TIER_NAME, nodeName: os.hostname(), proxyHost: process.env.APPD_PROXYHOST, proxyPort: process.env.APPD_PROXYPORT, enableGraphQL: true });
And that's all we as a developer have to do as per there documentation - https://docs.appdynamics.com/appd/onprem/23.x/23.6/en/application-monitoring/install-app-server-agents/node-js-agent/install-the-node-js-agent-in-containers

I think then it means you can point it to any server that is GraphQL over HTTP spec compliant. In that case, it will work with Mesh.

Have you tried?
