A simple bridge between your graphql queries and your bookshelf models. This library resolves graphql queries to batched and optimised queries using bookshelf models.
$ npm install --save graphql-bookshelfjs
Please make sure you have graphql and bookshelf installed.
There are 2 configuration steps:
- At the level of your GraphQL schema and resolve functions, you should provide the resolver which will be called by the GraphQL engine for actually querying the data.
const graphQL = require('graphql');
const graphQLBookshelf = require('graphql-bookshelfjs');
const RootQuery = new graphQL.GraphQLObjectType({
name: 'RootQuery',
fields: {
field: {
// ...
resolve: graphQLBookshelf.resolverFactory( SomeBookshelfModel ) // Provide the resolver
},
}
});
const graphQLSchema = new graphQL.GraphQLSchema({query: RootQuery});- At the level of GraphQL query execution, include the data loaders in the context object for performing batch queries.
const someQueryString = '...';
graphQL.graphql(graphQLSchema, someQueryString, null, {
loaders: graphQLBookshelf.getLoaders() // include the loaders
}).then(function(result) {
// ...
});If you're new to the GraphQL ecosystem and have troubles getting a project up and running or maybe you are confused about how to use this library then check out the EXAMPLE FOLDER to get started.
Let's assume:
- We have 4 models: Article, User, Account and Note.
- Article has a one-to-one (belongsTo) relationship with User.
- User has a many-to-many (belongsToMany) relationship with Account.
- User has a one-to-one (hasOne) relationship with Profile.
- User has a one-to-many (hasMany) relationship with Note.
- A user account has Administrator privileges when access attribute is set to 'admin'.

// Everything is OK, so let's call the parent resolver
let parentResolver = graphQLBookshelf.resolverFactory(User);
return parentResolver(modelInstance, args, context, info);
}
}
}
});Starting from release 1.0.2, extra parameter was added to resolver.
Query parameters from client requests are automatically translated into where closes. Sometimes we need to have more control of our models using complex queries (when dealing with pagination for example). With the help of 'extra' parameter we can apply any knex query builder method to our bookshelf model.
extra parameter is optional. When provided, it should be either a function or an object. The listing bellow
demonstrates how it can be used:
let RootQuery = new graphQL.GraphQLObjectType({
name: 'RootQuery',
fields: {
articles: {
// ...
resolve: function resolver(modelInstance, args, context, info) {
/*
// Defining extra using an object
const count = args.count || 5;
const extra = {
query: [function (db) {
db.limit(count);
}],
orderBy: ['id', 'DESC'],
};
!args.from || (extra.where = ['id', '<', args.from]);
*/
// Defining extra using a function
const { count = 5, from } = args;
const extra = (model) => {
model.query((db) => {
db.limit(count);
});
model.orderBy('id', 'DESC');
if (from) model.where('id', '<', from);
};
// 'from' and 'count' parameters are not model attributes, so let's get rid of them
const filteredArgs = _.omit(args, ['count', 'from']);
const resolverFn = graphQLBookshelf.resolverFactory(models.Article);
return resolverFn(modelInstance, filteredArgs, context, info, extra);
},
},
}
});To make it more clear, the following:
const extra = {
query: [function(db) {
db.limit( 5 );
}],
orderBy: ['id', 'DESC'],
where: ['id', '<', 10045]
};is the same as:
const knexQueryBuilder = model.query();
knexQueryBuilder.query(function(db) {
db.limit( count );
});
knexQueryBuilder.orderBy('id', 'DESC');
knexQueryBuilder.where('id', '<', 10045);For the sake of simplicity defining extra using a function is recommended to be used instead of using an object. It
is more clear and intuitive.
