8 years ago The idea is to provide database client utility as a context variable to the GraphQL middleware:
// server.js
app.use('/graphql', graphQL(req => ({
schema: require('./data/schema').default,
context: {
user: req.user,
db: new Database(config.db.connection), // Your database client /w connection pooling
},
graphiql: true,
}));...then inside the resolver functions in your GraphQL types you would use that db client as follows:
export default new GraphQLObjectType({
name: 'User',
fields: {
...
},
resolve(parent, arts, { db }) {
return db.loadUserById(parent.authorId);
},
});

Would like to see an example where a database value is queried and injected into the page. Current understanding is that this project does not have an example like this.
We have fetch examples hitting an external API (google feeds) but nothing leveraging the generated sqlite3 db, would also mean we need a seed script which seems like a reasonable addition to the data folder.
Have spent a few days trying to figure out how to make a query to the sqlite3 db (to no avail) after setting up some seed values. Simple example would go a long way in helping.
