Consume graphQL API from Mule 4 - graphql

I want to consumer graphQl API.
I know we need to use http requester to call graphQl.
I need some info on forming mutation request using dwl.
I was trying to hit this service https://www.predic8.de/fruit-shop-graphql
using below
%dw2.0
outputapplication/json
---
{
"query": "mutation(\$input:addCategoryInput!) { addCategory(input:\$input) { name products { name}} }",
"variables": {
"input": {
"id": 6,
"name": "Green Fruits",
"products": 8
}
}
}
its throwing bad request
But when using below
%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
{
"query": "mutation { addCategory(id: 6, name: \"Green Fruits\", products: 8) { name products { name } }}"
}
its working.
I want to use above format. Are both not valid requests.
Please share me your knowledge or guide me to right blog to refer.

Since GraphQL is not a supported format for DataWeave at this time, you have to write the query yourself as a string. You can however use DataWeave to create the body of a POST request for a query.
Example:
%dw 2.0
output application/json
---
{
"query": "mutation(\$schedule:PipelineScheduleCreateInput!) { pipelineScheduleCreate(input:\$schedule) { pipelineScheduleEdge { node { label nextBuildAt cronline } } } }",
"variables": {
"schedule": {
"pipelineID": "UGlwZWxpbmUtLS02MzliNWJjOC0wMGZmLT",
"cronline": "#midnight",
"label": "Nightly build"
}
}
}

Use Postman to test Appsync Subscription

I have been able to successfully execute Appsync GraphQL queries and mutations from Postman. However, i'm struggling to connect to subscriptions which are websocket urls.
How can I achieve the same ?
Since Postman supports WebSockets testing GraphQL subscriptions is achievable as well. Such a testing requires two steps:
connection to a server,
sending a start message.
Establishing a connection:
Create a new WebSocket request.
Put your server URL ws:// or wss://.
Add custom header parameter Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: graphql-ws. Other headers may depend on your server configuration.
Press the "Connect" button.
When the connection is established we may start a subscription.
In the "New message" field put the command.
Press the "Send" button.
The start message should look like this:
{
"id":"1",
"payload": {
"operationName": "MySubscription",
"query": "subscription MySubscription {
someSubscription {
__typename
someField1
someField2 {
__typename
someField21
someField22
}
}
}",
"variables": null
},
"type": "start"
}
operationName is just the name of your subscription, I guess it's optional. And someSubscription must be a subscription type from your schema.
query reminds regular GraphQL syntax with one difference:
__typename keyword precedes every field list.
For example, the query from the payload in regular syntax looks like the following:
subscription MySubscription {
someSubscription {
someField1
someField2 {
someField21
someField22
}
}
}
Example message with parameters (variables):
{
"id":"1",
"payload": {
"operationName": "MySubscription",
"query": "subscription MySubscription($param1: String!) {
someSubscription((param1: $param1)) {
__typename
someField
}
}",
"variables": {
"param1": "MyValue"
}
},
"type": "start"
}
It also reminds regular GraphQL syntax as described above.
variables is an object with your parameters.
#Vladimir's answer is spot on. Adding a few notes for folks still having trouble.
Full document here # https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/devguide/real-time-websocket-client.html
Step 1 - establish connection:
make sure to base64 encode values in "header" and "payload" querystrings
header example:
{
"host":"example1234567890000.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com",
"x-api-key":"da2-12345678901234567890123456"
}
payload: You can pass in empty payload
{}
Step 2 - register subscription:
Include the authorization in the message. Escape line feeds properly "\n" throws an error but "\\n" works. it throws the following error - misleading.
Don't forget to stringify value in "data" field.
{
"type": "error",
"payload": {
"errors": [
{
"errorType": "UnsupportedOperation",
"message": "unknown not supported through the realtime channel"
}
]
}
}
{
"id": "2",
"payload": {
"data": "{\"query\":\"subscription onCreateMessage { changeNotification{ __typename changeType from } }\",\"variables\":{}}",
"extensions":{
"authorization":{
"host":"example1234567890000.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com",
"x-api-key":"da2-12345678901234567890123456"
}
}
},
"type": "start"
}

Mule4# Valid DWL to format graphQL request

I want to consumer graphQl API.
I know we need to use http requester to call graphQl.
I need some info on forming mutation request using dwl.

}
}
}

But when using below
%dw 2.0

output application/json

{
query: "mutation(\$id:Int!,\$name:String!,\$products:[Int]!) { addCategory(id:\$id, name:\$name, products:\$products) { name products { name } } }",
variables: {
id: 6,
name: "Green Fruits",
products: [8]
}
}
Your issue would appear to be more with your GraphQL. Products is defined as [Int]! in the schema, and you need to pass in the individual arguments - I don't see an addCategoryInput defined anywhere in the schema, and addCategory is expecting individual arguments.

grpc/protobuffer ask for specific fields

GraphQL lets you ask for specific fields, the response contains only the fields that you had asked for. For example:
a graphql query like:
{
hero {
name
}
}
will return:
{
"data": {
"hero": {
"name": "R2-D2"
}
}
}
where as a graphQl query like:
{
hero {
name
friends {
name
}
}
}
would return:
{
"data": {
"hero": {
"name": "R2-D2",
"friends": [
{
"name": "Luke"
},
{
"name": "Han Solo"
},
{
"name": "Leia"
}
]
}
}
}
Is there a similar mechanism/library/pattern that can be used in gRPC to achieve the same?
FieldMask is similar in protobuf. It is a list of fields to retain, so the first example would be paths: "hero.name" and the second would be paths: ["hero.name", "hero.friends.name"].
It is probably most frequently used to specify which fields should be changed in an update. But it can equally be used to specify the fields that should be returned.
The server can either process the FieldMask directly (e.g., only using the listed fields in a SELECT SQL query), or it can retrieve all the information and filter the result using FieldMaskUtil.merge() to copy just the requested fields into a new proto message to return to the client.

GraphQL Github API formatting

I am wondering how to deal with the following problem. I am using GraphQL to query the v4 Github API with the following query:
{
viewer {
repositories(first: 30) {
edges {
node {
name
}
}
}
}
}
This gets me a response that looks like so:
{
"data": {
"viewer": {
"repositories": {
"edges": [
{
"node": {
"name": "test-repo"
}
},
{
"node": {
"name": "another-repo"
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
I am pretty new to GraphQL, I understand that in my query I need to provide the edges and nodes but I would rather get a response back in this kind of way because I am not interested to know about "edges" and "nodes" in my frontend:
{
"data": {
"viewer": {
"repositories": [
{
"name": "test-repo"
},
{
"name": "another-repo"
}
]
}
}
}
}
I am guessing this kind of response is normal for GraphQL but it would be pretty cumbersome to rewrite to response all the time for easier usage in my frontend. Is there some way to emit the "edges" and "nodes" and get the formatting that I would like or is this simply all up to me to deal with?
I have looked at some libraries like Apollo but I have no idea is this is a right fit to deal with things like this. Hopefully someone a bit more experienced with GraphQL could tell me something more.
Sometimes, services provides two endpoints: Relay endpoint (with edges and nodes) and simple endpoint.
Looks like GitHub only have a Relay endpoint. In this case, the only thing you can do is to manually format the response on your frontend.
Actually, such complex response structure is needed because we often need to do a pagination. Take a look at the example:
{
getArticle(id: "some-id") {
id
userId
user {
id
name
}
tags(first: 10, after: "opaqueCursor") {
edges {
node {
id
name
itemsCount
}
}
pageInfo {
hasNextPage
hasPreviousPage
endCursor
startCursor
}
}
}
}
pageInfo is located at the same level as edges.
So if you later will need to do a pagination, it would be better to keep the response format as is.
You can remove the edges query if you know you aren't searching along those relationships. Cursor-based pagination will work by checking the pageInfo value hasNextPage and using endCursor as the after query parameter:
viewer {
repositories(first: 30,after:"<CURSOR_STRING>") {
totalCount
pageInfo{
hasNextPage
endCursor
}
nodes{
name
}
}
}
returns
"viewer": {
"repositories": {
"totalCount": 38,
"pageInfo": {
"hasNextPage": true,
"endCursor": "Y3Vyc29yOnYyOpHOAl/5mw=="
},
"nodes": [
{
"name": "AllStarRoom"
},
{
"name": "shimsham"
},
{
"name": "Monitor-Docs"
}
]
}
}

Spring Data ElasticSearch Build In IN query returning partial match

I am new to elastic search spring data, Today I was trying to get In query working with Spring data ES repository.
I have to do a lookup for list of user names, and if its exactly match in the index, need to get those users back as result.
I tried to use the built in repository 'In' method to do so, but it returns partial matches, please help me to make this working like SQL IN query.
Here is my repository code:
public interface UserRepository extends ElasticsearchRepository<EsUser, String>
{
public List<EsUser> findByUserAccountUserNameIn(Collection<String> terms);
}
REQUEST:
{"terms":["vijay", "arun"], "type":"NAME"}
RESPONSE:
[
{
"userId": "236000",
"fbId": "",
"userAccount": {
"userName": "arun",
"urlFriendlyName": "arun",
},
"userProfile": {
},
"userStats": {
}
},
{
"userId": "6228",
"userAccount": {
"userName": "vijay",
"urlFriendlyName": "vijay",
},
"userProfile": {
},
"userStats": {
}
},
{
"userId": "236000",
"fbId": "",
"userAccount": {
"userName": "arun singh",
"urlFriendlyName": "arun-singh",
},
"userProfile": {
},
"userStats": {
}
}
{
"userId": "236000",
"fbId": "",
"userAccount": {
"userName": "vijay mohan",
"urlFriendlyName": "vijay-mohan",
},
"userProfile": {
},
"userStats": {
}
}
]
This is because your userAccount.userName field is an analyzed string, and thus, the two tokens arun and singh have been indexed. Your query then matches the first token, which is normal.
In order to prevent this and guarantee an exact match you need to declare your field as not_analyzed, like this:
#Field(index = FieldIndex.not_analyzed)
private String userName;
Then you'll need to delete your index and the associated template in /_template, restart your application so a new template and index are created with the proper field mapping.
Then your query will work.
