Compile GraphQL-Core #70

Open syrusakbary opened 1 year ago

syrusakbary commented 1 year ago

I'd love to see if Codon could compile graphql-core. I tried before with rpython but the code adaptations required to make it work were not trivial.

Why compiling graphql-core? It could open up a lot of applications and speed up in other codebases. The cool thing is that graphql-core has no dependencies on external packages, so it would have a defined scope.

Happy to offer a generous sponsorship to make it possible :)

Note: GraphQL right now has some async code only required for execution, but that could be skipped if it's not currently supported by codon

Hi @syrusakbary

Thanks for the suggestion---will certainly take a look!

Hi @syrusakbary

So, in order to get to MVP we need at least:

[ ] Complete support for polymorphic objects (e.g., dynamic getattr/setattr)
[ ] Limited runtime reflection (at least)
[ ] Special constructs that will allow Python and/or Codon-only code sections to ensure that two implementations can coexist together
[ ] Standard library expansion
[ ] async support
[ ] Time :)

Let's keep progress here.

Hey @inumanag,

I see there are some major updates:

Support runtime reflection methods: https://github.com/exaloop/codon/blob/c16dfb5654876516dbe0239084449072f0da812d/stdlib/internal/static.codon
Support for getattr/setattr
Standard library expansion

Should we revisit the compilation of GraphQL-core ?
