How to Use

Buzzer works via GraphQL APIs and you can send messages via the GraphQL playground and view docs at /graphiql. The GraphQL endpoint is /graphql.

Additionally, all messages, whether successful or errored out, will be logged to a MongoDB collection with the appropriate config and message used alongside. You can view the logs via a GraphQL query.
