Getting Started

Installation

Add the ArianeGraphQL library to your project by including the following dependency in your build file:

Groovy

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.arianegraphql:server:$arianeVersion'
    implementation 'com.arianegraphql:server-ktor:$arianeVersion'
}

Kotlin

dependencies {
    implementation("com.arianegraphql:server:${arianeVersion}")
    implementation("com.arianegraphql:server-ktor:${arianeVersion}")
}

tip

It's also recommended to install the codegen plugin. See codegen plugin installation.

Usage

You can directly start the server like this:

main.kt

fun main() = arianeServer {

    schema = loadSchema("schema.graphqls")

    resolvers {

    }

}.launch()

schema.graphqls

type Query {
    movies: [Movie!]!
}

type Mutation {
    addMovie(title: String!, directorName: String!): Movie!
}

type Movie {
    title: String!
    director: Director!
}

type Director {
    name: String!
    movies: [Movie!]
}

That's it!

Congratulations! You have a running GraphQL server. Let's now implement the resolvers.
