Extremely simple demo project exploring integration between Grats and Deno

Install Deno

$ deno run -A server.ts

$ deno run npm:grats/dist/src/cli.js --output=./schema.graphql

Not as pretty as just typing npx grats, but one can always stuff that command as a Deno task:

$ deno task grats-gen

• Scalars provided by Grats (import { Float, Int, ID } from "grats") are importable just fine, but seems like the docblocks aren't reachable.
  • Kinda makes sense: these imports are importmaps managed by Deno; I'm guessing Grat's Typescript compiler can't locate the actual file where the scalars are defined, the file containing the scalars' dockblocks.
  • A not-so-terrible workaround is to "vendor" the scalar definitions, so they are fully accessible by Grat's (see schema.ts in this repo).
• Module remapping must be done carefully to ensure a single graphql version is pulled, otherwise graphql itself will complain.
