HAPI plugin for GraphiQL integration
$ npm install hapi hapi-plugin-graphiql
This is a small plugin for the HAPI server framework for seamless integration of GraphiQL, an interactive GraphQL user interface. This variant of GraphiQL especially integrates a username/password based login dialog and reports network responses in the GraphiQL status bar. In case of its downstream/local copy of GraphiQL, it also applies some additional changes to GraphiQL's internals.
The following example shows the plugin in action. The shown options are actually the default ones:
server.register({
register: require("hapi-plugin-graphiql"),
options: {
graphiqlSource: "downstream",
graphiqlGlobals: "",
graphiqlURL: "/api",
graphqlFetchURL: "/api/data/graph",
graphqlFetchOpts: `{
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Accept": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify(params),
credentials: "same-origin"
}`,
loginFetchURL: "/api/auth/login",
loginFetchOpts: `{
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify({
username: username,
password: password
}),
credentials: "same-origin"
}`,
loginFetchSuccess: "",
loginFetchError: "",
graphqlExample:
"query Example {\n" +
" Session {\n" +
" __typename # schema introspection\n" +
" }\n" +
"}\n",
documentationURL: "",
documentationFile: ""
}
})
This assumes you have a REST-based authentication endpoint
/api/auth/login
and a GraphQL endpoint /api/data/graphql
. The
GraphiQL UI then can be accessed under /api
. The authentication
endpoint is assumed to accept { username: "...", password: "..." }
and
sets the authentication token as a HTTP cookie for /api
. If you your
authentication endpoint returns { token: "..." }
and the token has to be passed in an
Authorization
header as a Bearer token, use the following configuration instead:
server.register({
register: require("hapi-plugin-graphiql"),
options: {
graphiqlSource: "downstream",
graphiqlGlobals: `var token = null;`,
graphiqlURL: "/api",
graphqlFetchURL: "/api/data/graph",
graphqlFetchOpts: `{
method: "POST",
headers: Object.assign({
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Accept": "application/json"
}, token ? {
"Authorization": "Bearer " + token
} : {}),
body: JSON.stringify(params),
credentials: "same-origin"
}`,
loginFetchURL: "/api/auth/login",
loginFetchOpts: `{
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify({
username: username,
password: password
}),
credentials: "same-origin"
}`,
loginFetchSuccess: `token = JSON.parse(response.text()).token;`,
loginFetchError: `token = null;`,
graphqlExample:
"query Example {\n" +
" Session {\n" +
" __typename # schema introspection\n" +
" }\n" +
"}\n"
}
})
The supported configuration options are:
-
graphiqlSource
:
The source for GraphiQL, eitherupstream
(original vendor version) ordownstream
(patched local version). Default:"downstream"
-
graphiqlGlobals
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the global scope of the GraphiQL integration. Usually used for injecting a global variable for use in the other code snippets. Default:""
-
graphiqlURL
:
The URL under which the GraphiQL UI is registered forGET
requests. This can be even the same as the GraphQL URL, as it is usually registered forPOST
requests. Default:"/api"
-
graphqlFetchURL
:
The URL under which the GraphQL API can be reached viaPOST
requests. Default:"/api/data/graph"
-
graphqlFetchOpts
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the W3C-Fetch API call as options for fetching a GraphQL query. Default:`{ method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", "Accept": "application/json" }, body: JSON.stringify(params), credentials: "same-origin" }`
-
loginFetchURL
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the W3C-Fetch API call as options for logging in. Default:"/api/auth/login"
-
loginFetchOpts
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the W3C-Fetch API call as options for logging in. Default:`{ method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, body: JSON.stringify({ username: username, password: password }), credentials: "same-origin" }`
-
loginFetchSuccess
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the success handler of the W3C-Fetch API call for loggin in. Default:""
-
loginFetchError
:
JavaScript code snippet injected into the error handler of the W3C-Fetch API call for loggin in. Default:""
-
graphqlExample
:
A GraphQL query string used as the initial query source in the UI. Default:"query Example {\n" + " Session {\n" + " __typename # schema introspection\n" + " }\n" + "}\n"
-
documentationURL
:
URL (usually undergraphiqlURL
) under which you want to reference a single documentation file with the markdown directive[name](url)
from within your GraphQL schema comments. -
documentationFile
:
The local path to the file to serve ifdocumentationURL
is requested.
