graphql engine can not process graphql queries against OpenLink Virtuso´s graphql endpoint.

[E-Babkin]

OpenLink Virtuoso exposes a Graphql schema in a different format, without NON_NULL top-level type.

In the result exception is raised in a stand alone program, or inside the Apache Superset.

The details of that case are described also in Stackoverlfow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78405538/how-to-achieve-compliance-between-graphql-in-virtuoso-and-python-graphql-db-api

What issue are you running into when trying to use this library with the OpenLink Virtuoso API? If there is a stack trace, could you post it?

[E-Babkin]

Sure, here is the program

from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import text

#engine = create_engine('graphql://pet-library.moonhighway.com/')
#query = "select id, name from 'allPets?is_connection=0'"

# Virtuoso's hosted  GraphQL endpoint
engine = create_engine('graphql://linkeddata.uriburner.com/graphql')
query = "select name from 'Concepts?is_connection=0'"

with engine.connect() as connection:
    for row in connection.execute(text(query)):
        print(row)

And the stacktrace :

/home/PycharmProjects/pythonProject/.venv/bin/python /home/PycharmProjects/pythonProject/graphql_client.py 
/home/PycharmProjects/pythonProject/graphql_client.py:8: SADeprecationWarning: The dbapi() classmethod on dialect classes has been renamed to import_dbapi().  Implement an import_dbapi() classmethod directly on class <class 'graphqldb.dialect.APSWGraphQLDialect'> to remove this warning; the old .dbapi() classmethod may be maintained for backwards compatibility.
  engine = create_engine('graphql://linkeddata.uriburner.com/graphql')

1. You should be indicating this is a non-Connection: query = "select name from 'Concepts?is_connection=0'"
2. You need the changes in this PR: #377; however, I am not okay just merging that as is without adding some additional error reporting, etc.

[E-Babkin]

Ok, thank you for the response. Indeed, the no-connection option should be used in that case. I made changes in the original code and the stack trace. Also, the statements in https://github.com/cancan101/graphql-db-api/pull/377 correctly note needs to support IRI data type.
so, after including error reporting these fixes will be available in the main branch, will be ?

[cancan101]

I don't have the bandwidth to complete #377 and merge to main. That being said, you can use pip to install directly from the PR branch if you want to work with the functionality.
