Activating the default GraphQL server
GraphQL is used through a single route, typically /graphql. You need
to define types and queries to expose your data via this endpoint. While this recommended
route is left open for you to configure on your own, the modules contained in the CMS recipe,
(e.g. asset-admin) run off a separate GraphQL server with its own endpoint
(admin/graphql) with its own permissions and schema.
These separate endpoints have their own identifiers. default refers to the GraphQL server
in the user space (e.g. /graphql) while admin refers to the GraphQL server used by CMS modules
(admin/graphql). You can also set up a new schema if you wish.
By default, this module does not route any GraphQL servers. To activate the default,
public-facing GraphQL server that ships with the module, just add a rule to Director.
SilverStripe\Control\Director:
rules:
'graphql': '%$SilverStripe\GraphQL\Controller.default'
Setting up a custom GraphQL server
In addition to the default /graphql endpoint provided by this module by default,
along with the admin/graphql endpoint provided by the CMS modules (if they're installed),
you may want to set up another GraphQL server running on the same installation of SilverStripe.
Let's set up a new controller to handle the requests.
SilverStripe\Core\Injector\Injector:
# ...
SilverStripe\GraphQL\Controller.myNewSchema:
class: SilverStripe\GraphQL\Controller
constructor:
schemaKey: myNewSchema
We'll now need to route the controller.
SilverStripe\Control\Director:
rules:
'my-graphql': '%$SilverStripe\GraphQL\Controller.myNewSchema'
Now, you're ready to configure your schema.
SilverStripe\GraphQL\Schema\Schema:
schemas:
myNewSchema:
# ...
