# Graphene: Python DSL for GraphQL
This is a library to use GraphQL in Python in a easy way.
It will map the models/fields to internal GraphQL-py objects without effort.
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/syrusakbary/graphene.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/syrusakbary/graphene)
[![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/syrusakbary/graphene/badge.svg?branch=master&service=github)](https://coveralls.io/github/syrusakbary/graphene?branch=master)
## Usage
Example code of a GraphQL schema using Graphene:
### Schema definition
```python
import graphene
# ...
class Character(graphene.Interface):
id = graphene.IDField()
name = graphene.StringField()
friends = graphene.ListField('self')
appearsIn = graphene.ListField(Episode)
def resolve_friends(self, args, *_):
return [wrap_character(getCharacter(f)) for f in self.instance.friends]
class Human(Character):
homePlanet = graphene.StringField()
class Droid(Character):
primaryFunction = graphene.StringField()
class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
hero = graphene.Field(Character,
episode = graphene.Argument(Episode)
)
human = graphene.Field(Human,
id = graphene.Argument(graphene.String)
)
droid = graphene.Field(Droid,
id = graphene.Argument(graphene.String)
)
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_hero(self, episode):
return wrap_character(getHero(episode))
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_human(self, id):
return wrap_character(getHuman(id))
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_droid(self, id):
return wrap_character(getDroid(id))
Schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query)
```
### Querying
Querying `graphene.Schema` is as simple as:
```python
query = '''
query HeroNameQuery {
hero {
name
}
}
'''
result = Schema.execute(query)
```
### Relay Schema
Graphene also supports Relay, check the (Starwars Relay example)[/tests/starwars_relay]!
```python
import graphene
from graphene import relay
class Ship(relay.Node):
'''A ship in the Star Wars saga'''
name = graphene.StringField(description='The name of the ship.')
@classmethod
def get_node(cls, id):
return Ship(getShip(id))
class Faction(relay.Node):
'''A faction in the Star Wars saga'''
name = graphene.StringField(description='The name of the faction.')
ships = relay.ConnectionField(Ship, description='The ships used by the faction.')
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_ships(self, **kwargs):
return [Ship(getShip(ship)) for ship in self.instance.ships]
@classmethod
def get_node(cls, id):
return Faction(getFaction(id)
class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
rebels = graphene.Field(Faction)
empire = graphene.Field(Faction)
node = relay.NodeField()
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_rebels(self):
return Faction(getRebels())
@resolve_only_args
def resolve_empire(self):
return Faction(getEmpire())
Schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query)
# Later on, for querying
Schema.execute('''rebels { name }''')
```
