{{ graphql(query) }} template tag

[simonw]

Exposing graphql to templates means custom templates will be able to populate their context using a query embedded in the template itself - something like this:

{% set user = graphql("""
{
  users_row(id: 9599) {
    id
    name
    contributors_list {
      nodes {
        contributions
        repo_id {
          full_name
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
""", "github")["users_row"] %}
