On the very top level it is built around three major concepts: Schema , Query and Mutation . You are expected to express your application as Schema (aka Type System) and expose it with single HTTP endpoint (e.g. using our standard server ). Application clients (e.g. web or mobile clients) send Queries to this endpoint to request structured data and Mutations to perform changes (usually with HTTP POST method). Queries Queries are expressed in simple language that resembles JSON: { hero { name friends { name } } } It was designed to mirror the structure of expected response: { \"hero\": { \"name\": \"R2-D2\", \"friends\": [ {\"name\": \"Luke Skywalker\"}, {\"name\": \"Han Solo\"}, {\"name\": \"Leia Organa\"} ] } } graphql-php runtime parses Queries, makes sure that they are valid for given Type System and executes using data fetching tools provided by you as a part of integration. Queries are supposed to be idempotent. Mutations Mutations use advanced features of the very same query language (like arguments and variables) and have only semantic difference from Queries: mutation CreateReviewForEpisode($ep: Episode!, $review: ReviewInput!) { createReview(episode: $ep, review: $review) { stars commentary } } Variables $ep and $review are sent alongside with mutation. Full HTTP request might look like this: // POST /graphql-endpoint // Content-Type: application/javascript // { \"query\": \"mutation CreateReviewForEpisode...\", \"variables\": { \"ep\": \"JEDI\", \"review\": { \"stars\": 5, \"commentary\": \"This is a great movie!\" } } } As you see variables may include complex objects and they will be correctly validated by graphql-php runtime. Another nice feature of GraphQL mutations is that they also hold the query for data to be returned after mutation. In our example mutation will return: { \"createReview\": { \"stars\": 5, \"commentary\": \"This is a great movie!\" } } Type System Conceptually GraphQL type is a collection of fields. Each field in turn has it's own type which allows to build complex hierarchies.

You can use any underlying data storage engine, including SQL or NoSQL database, plain files or in-memory data structures. In order to convert the GraphQL query to PHP array, graphql-php traverses query fields (using depth-first algorithm) and runs special resolve function on each field. This resolve function is provided by you as a part of field definition or query execution call . Result returned by resolve function is directly included in the response (for scalars and enums) or passed down to nested fields (for objects). Let's walk through an example. Consider following GraphQL query: { lastStory { title author { name } } } We need a Schema that can fulfill it. On the very top level the Schema contains Query type: 'Query', 'fields' => [ 'lastStory' => [ 'type' => $blogStoryType, 'resolve' => function() { return [ 'id' => 1, 'title' => 'Example blog post', 'authorId' => 1 ]; } ] ] ]); As we see field lastStory has resolve function that is responsible for fetching data. In our example, we simply return array value, but in the real-world application you would query your database/cache/search index and return the result. Since lastStory is of composite type BlogStory this result is passed down to fields of this type: 'BlogStory', 'fields' => [ 'author' => [ 'type' => $userType, 'resolve' => function($blogStory) { $users = [ 1 => [ 'id' => 1, 'name' => 'Smith' ], 2 => [ 'id' => 2, 'name' => 'Anderson' ] ]; return $users[$blogStory['authorId']]; } ], 'title' => [ 'type' => Type::string() ] ] ]); Here $blogStory is the array returned by lastStory field above. Again: in the real-world applications you would fetch user data from data store by authorId and return it. Also, note that you don't have to return arrays. You can return any value, graphql-php will pass it untouched to nested resolvers. But then the question appears - field title has no resolve option. How is it resolved? There is a default resolver for all fields. When you define your own resolve function for a field you simply override this default resolver. Default Field Resolver graphql-php provides following default field resolver: fieldName; $property = null; if (is_array($source) || $source instanceof \\ArrayAccess) { if (isset($source[$fieldName])) { $property = $source[$fieldName]; } } else if (is_object($source)) { if (isset($source->{$fieldName})) { $property = $source->{$fieldName}; } } return $property instanceof Closure ? $property($source, $args, $context, $info) : $property; } As you see it returns value by key (for arrays) or property (for objects). If the value is not set - it returns null . To override the default resolver, pass it as an argument of executeQuery call. Default Field Resolver per Type Sometimes it might be convenient to set default field resolver per type. You can do so by providing resolveField option in type config . For example: 'User', 'fields' => [ 'name' => Type::string(), 'email' => Type::string() ], 'resolveField' => function(User $user, $args, $context, ResolveInfo $info) { switch ($info->fieldName) { case 'name': return $user->getName(); case 'email': return $user->getEmail(); default: return null; } } ]); Keep in mind that field resolver has precedence over default field resolver per type which in turn has precedence over default field resolver . Solving N+1 Problem Since: 0.9.0 One of the most annoying problems with data fetching is a so-called N+1 problem . Consider following GraphQL query: { topStories(limit: 10) { title author { name email } } } Naive field resolution process would require up to 10 calls to the underlying data store to fetch authors for all 10 stories. graphql-php provides tools to mitigate this problem: it allows you to defer actual field resolution to a later stage when one batched query could be executed instead of 10 distinct queries. Here is an example of BlogStory resolver for field author that uses deferring: function($blogStory) { MyUserBuffer::add($blogStory['authorId']); return new GraphQL\\Deferred(function () use ($blogStory) { MyUserBuffer::loadBuffered(); return MyUserBuffer::get($blogStory['authorId']); }); } In this example, we fill up the buffer with 10 author ids first. Then graphql-php continues resolving other non-deferred fields until there are none of them left. After that, it calls closures wrapped by GraphQL\\Deferred which in turn load all buffered ids once (using SQL IN(?), Redis MGET or other similar tools) and returns final field value. Originally this approach was advocated by Facebook in their Dataloader project. This solution enables very interesting optimizations at no cost. Consider the following query: { topStories(limit: 10) { author { email } } category { stories(limit: 10) { author { email } } } } Even though author field is located on different levels of the query - it can be buffered in the same buffer. In this example, only one query will be executed for all story authors comparing to 20 queries in a naive implementation. Async PHP Since: 0.10.0 (version 0.9.0 had slightly different API which still works, but is deprecated) If your project runs in an environment that supports async operations (like HHVM, ReactPHP, Icicle.io, appserver.io, PHP threads, etc) you can leverage the power of your platform to resolve some fields asynchronously. The only requirement: your platform must support the concept of Promises compatible with Promises A+ specification. To start using this feature, switch facade method for query execution from executeQuery to promiseToExecute : then(function(ExecutionResult $result) { return $result->toArray(); }); Where $promiseAdapter is an instance of: For ReactPHP (requires react/promise as composer dependency): GraphQL\\Executor\\Promise\\Adapter\\ReactPromiseAdapter Other platforms: write your own class implementing interface: GraphQL\\Executor\\Promise\\PromiseAdapter .

When the result is converted to a serializable array using its toArray() method, all errors are converted to arrays as well using default error formatting (see below). Alternatively, you can apply custom error filtering and formatting for your specific requirements. Default Error formatting By default, each error entry is converted to an associative array with following structure: 'Error message', 'category' => 'graphql', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 1, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'listField', 0, 'fieldWithException' ] ]; Entry at key locations points to a character in query string which caused the error. In some cases (like deep fragment fields) locations will include several entries to track down the path to field with the error in query. Entry at key path exists only for errors caused by exceptions thrown in resolvers. It contains a path from the very root field to actual field value producing an error (including indexes for list types and field names for composite types). Internal errors As of version 0.10.0 , all exceptions thrown in resolvers are reported with generic message \"Internal server error\" . This is done to avoid information leak in production environments (e.g. database connection errors, file access errors, etc). Only exceptions implementing interface GraphQL\\Error\\ClientAware and claiming themselves as safe will be reported with a full error message. For example: 'My reported error', 'category' => 'businessLogic', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 10, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'path', 'to', 'fieldWithException' ] ]; To change default \"Internal server error\" message to something else, use: GraphQL\\Error\\FormattedError::setInternalErrorMessage(\"Unexpected error\"); Debugging tools During development or debugging use $result->toArray(true) to add debugMessage key to each formatted error entry. If you also want to add exception trace - pass flags instead: use GraphQL\\Error\\Debug; $debug = Debug::INCLUDE_DEBUG_MESSAGE | Debug::INCLUDE_TRACE; $result = GraphQL::executeQuery(/*args*/)->toArray($debug); This will make each error entry to look like this: 'Actual exception message', 'message' => 'Internal server error', 'category' => 'internal', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 10, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'listField', 0, 'fieldWithException' ], 'trace' => [ /* Formatted original exception trace */ ] ]; If you prefer the first resolver exception to be re-thrown, use following flags: toArray($debug); If you only want to re-throw Exceptions that are not marked as safe through the ClientAware interface, use the flag Debug::RETHROW_UNSAFE_EXCEPTIONS . Custom Error Handling and Formatting It is possible to define custom formatter and handler for result errors. Formatter is responsible for converting instances of GraphQL\\Error\\Error to an array. Handler is useful for error filtering and logging. For example, these are default formatter and handler: setErrorFormatter($myErrorFormatter) ->setErrorsHandler($myErrorHandler) ->toArray(); Note that when you pass debug flags to toArray() your custom formatter will still be decorated with same debugging information mentioned above. Schema Errors So far we only covered errors which occur during query execution process. But schema definition can also throw GraphQL\\Error\\InvariantViolation if there is an error in one of type definitions. Usually such errors mean that there is some logical error in your schema and it is the only case when it makes sense to return 500 error code for GraphQL endpoint: [FormattedError::createFromException($e)] ]; $status = 500; } header('Content-Type: application/json', true, $status); echo json_encode($body);","title":"Handling Errors"},{"location":"error-handling/#errors-in-graphql","text":"Query execution process never throws exceptions.

By returning different values from the enter and leave functions, the behavior of the visitor can be altered, including skipping over a sub-tree of the AST (by returning false), editing the AST by returning a value or null to remove the value, or to stop the whole traversal by returning BREAK. When using visit() to edit an AST, the original AST will not be modified, and a new version of the AST with the changes applied will be returned from the visit function. $editedAST = Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => function ($node, $key, $parent, $path, $ancestors) { // return // null: no action // Visitor::skipNode(): skip visiting this node // Visitor::stop(): stop visiting altogether // Visitor::removeNode(): delete this node // any value: replace this node with the returned value }, 'leave' => function ($node, $key, $parent, $path, $ancestors) { // return // null: no action // Visitor::stop(): stop visiting altogether // Visitor::removeNode(): delete this node // any value: replace this node with the returned value } ]); Alternatively to providing enter() and leave() functions, a visitor can instead provide functions named the same as the kinds of AST nodes , or enter/leave visitors at a named key, leading to four permutations of visitor API: 1) Named visitors triggered when entering a node a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'Kind' => function ($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } ]); 2) Named visitors that trigger upon entering and leaving a node of a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'Kind' => [ 'enter' => function ($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } 'leave' => function ($node) { // leave the \"Kind\" node } ] ]); 3) Generic visitors that trigger upon entering and leaving any node. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => function ($node) { // enter any node }, 'leave' => function ($node) { // leave any node } ]); 4) Parallel visitors for entering and leaving nodes of a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => [ 'Kind' => function($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } }, 'leave' => [ 'Kind' => function ($node) { // leave the \"Kind\" node } ] ]); Class Methods: /** * Visit the AST (see class description for details) * * @param Node|ArrayObject|stdClass $root * @param callable[] $visitor * @param mixed[]|null $keyMap * * @return Node|mixed * * @throws Exception * * @api */ static function visit($root, $visitor, $keyMap = null) /** * Returns marker for visitor break * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function stop() /** * Returns marker for skipping current node * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function skipNode() /** * Returns marker for removing a node * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function removeNode() GraphQL\\Language\\AST\\NodeKind Class Constants: const NAME = \"Name\"; const DOCUMENT = \"Document\"; const OPERATION_DEFINITION = \"OperationDefinition\"; const VARIABLE_DEFINITION = \"VariableDefinition\"; const VARIABLE = \"Variable\"; const SELECTION_SET = \"SelectionSet\"; const FIELD = \"Field\"; const ARGUMENT = \"Argument\"; const FRAGMENT_SPREAD = \"FragmentSpread\"; const INLINE_FRAGMENT = \"InlineFragment\"; const FRAGMENT_DEFINITION = \"FragmentDefinition\"; const INT = \"IntValue\"; const FLOAT = \"FloatValue\"; const STRING = \"StringValue\"; const BOOLEAN = \"BooleanValue\"; const ENUM = \"EnumValue\"; const NULL = \"NullValue\"; const LST = \"ListValue\"; const OBJECT = \"ObjectValue\"; const OBJECT_FIELD = \"ObjectField\"; const DIRECTIVE = \"Directive\"; const NAMED_TYPE = \"NamedType\"; const LIST_TYPE = \"ListType\"; const NON_NULL_TYPE = \"NonNullType\"; const SCHEMA_DEFINITION = \"SchemaDefinition\"; const OPERATION_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"OperationTypeDefinition\"; const SCALAR_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"ScalarTypeDefinition\"; const OBJECT_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"ObjectTypeDefinition\"; const FIELD_DEFINITION = \"FieldDefinition\"; const INPUT_VALUE_DEFINITION = \"InputValueDefinition\"; const INTERFACE_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"InterfaceTypeDefinition\"; const UNION_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"UnionTypeDefinition\"; const ENUM_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"EnumTypeDefinition\"; const ENUM_VALUE_DEFINITION = \"EnumValueDefinition\"; const INPUT_OBJECT_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"InputObjectTypeDefinition\"; const SCALAR_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"ScalarTypeExtension\"; const OBJECT_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"ObjectTypeExtension\"; const INTERFACE_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"InterfaceTypeExtension\"; const UNION_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"UnionTypeExtension\"; const ENUM_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"EnumTypeExtension\"; const INPUT_OBJECT_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"InputObjectTypeExtension\"; const DIRECTIVE_DEFINITION = \"DirectiveDefinition\"; const SCHEMA_EXTENSION = \"SchemaExtension\"; GraphQL\\Executor\\Executor Implements the \"Evaluating requests\" section of the GraphQL specification.

For GraphQL PHP runtime there is no difference between query fields with arguments and mutations. They are executed almost identically. To some extent, Mutation is just a convention described in the GraphQL spec. Here is an example of a mutation operation: mutation CreateReviewForEpisode($ep: EpisodeInput!, $review: ReviewInput!) { createReview(episode: $ep, review: $review) { stars commentary } } To execute such a mutation, you need Mutation type at the root of your schema : 'Mutation', 'fields' => [ // List of mutations: 'createReview' => [ 'args' => [ 'episode' => Type::nonNull($episodeInputType), 'review' => Type::nonNull($reviewInputType) ], 'type' => new ObjectType([ 'name' => 'CreateReviewOutput', 'fields' => [ 'stars' => ['type' => Type::int()], 'commentary' => ['type' => Type::string()] ] ]), ], // ... other mutations ] ]); As you can see, the only difference from regular object type is the semantics of field names (verbs vs nouns). Also as we see arguments can be of complex types. To leverage the full power of mutations (and field arguments in general) you must learn how to create complex input types. About Input and Output Types All types in GraphQL are of two categories: input and output . Output types (or field types) are: Scalar , Enum , Object , Interface , Union Input types (or argument types) are: Scalar , Enum , InputObject Obviously, NonNull and List types belong to both categories depending on their inner type. Until now all examples of field arguments in this documentation were of Scalar or Enum types. But you can also pass complex objects. This is particularly valuable in case of mutations, where input data might be rather complex. Input Object Type GraphQL specification defines Input Object Type for complex inputs. It is similar to ObjectType except that it's fields have no args or resolve options and their type must be input type. In graphql-php Input Object Type is an instance of GraphQL\\Type\\Definition\\InputObjectType (or one of it subclasses) which accepts configuration array in constructor: 'StoryFiltersInput', 'fields' => [ 'author' => [ 'type' => Type::id(), 'description' => 'Only show stories with this author id' ], 'popular' => [ 'type' => Type::boolean(), 'description' => 'Only show popular stories (liked by several people)' ], 'tags' => [ 'type' => Type::listOf(Type::string()), 'description' => 'Only show stories which contain all of those tags' ] ] ]); Every field may be of other InputObjectType (thus complex hierarchies of inputs are possible) Configuration options The constructor of InputObjectType accepts array with only 3 options: Option Type Notes name string Required. Unique name of this object type within Schema fields array or callable Required . An array describing object fields or callable returning such an array (see below). description string Plain-text description of this type for clients (e.g. used by GraphiQL for auto-generated documentation) Every field is an array with following entries: Option Type Notes name string Required.

Recurring and circular types Almost all real-world applications contain recurring or circular types. Think user friends or nested comments for example. graphql-php allows such types, but you have to use callable in option fields (and/or interfaces ). For example: 'User', 'fields' => function() use (&$userType) { return [ 'email' => [ 'type' => Type::string() ], 'friends' => [ 'type' => Type::listOf($userType) ] ]; } ]); Same example for inheritance style of type definitions using TypeRegistry : function() { return [ 'email' => MyTypes::string(), 'friends' => MyTypes::listOf(MyTypes::user()) ]; } ]; parent::__construct($config); } } class MyTypes { private static $user; public static function user() { return self::$user ?: (self::$user = new UserType()); } public static function string() { return Type::string(); } public static function listOf($type) { return Type::listOf($type); } } Field Resolution Field resolution is the primary mechanism in graphql-php for returning actual data for your fields. It is implemented using resolveField callable in type definition or resolve callable in field definition (which has precedence). Read the section on Data Fetching for a complete description of this process. Custom Metadata All types in graphql-php accept configuration array.

Query and Mutation types The schema consists of two root types: Query type is a surface of your read API Mutation type (optional) exposes write API by declaring all possible mutations in your app. Query and Mutation types are regular object types containing root-level fields of your API: 'Query', 'fields' => [ 'hello' => [ 'type' => Type::string(), 'resolve' => function() { return 'Hello World!'; } ], 'hero' => [ 'type' => $characterInterface, 'args' => [ 'episode' => [ 'type' => $episodeEnum ] ], 'resolve' => function ($rootValue, $args) { return StarWarsData::getHero(isset($args['episode']) ? $args['episode'] : null); }, ] ] ]); $mutationType = new ObjectType([ 'name' => 'Mutation', 'fields' => [ 'createReview' => [ 'type' => $createReviewOutput, 'args' => [ 'episode' => $episodeEnum, 'review' => $reviewInputObject ], 'resolve' => function($val, $args) { // TODOC } ] ] ]); Keep in mind that other than the special meaning of declaring a surface area of your API, those types are the same as any other object type , and their fields work exactly the same way.

On the very top level it is built around three major concepts: Schema , Query and Mutation . You are expected to express your application as Schema (aka Type System) and expose it with single HTTP endpoint (e.g. using our standard server ). Application clients (e.g. web or mobile clients) send Queries to this endpoint to request structured data and Mutations to perform changes (usually with HTTP POST method). Queries Queries are expressed in simple language that resembles JSON: { hero { name friends { name } } } It was designed to mirror the structure of expected response: { \"hero\": { \"name\": \"R2-D2\", \"friends\": [ {\"name\": \"Luke Skywalker\"}, {\"name\": \"Han Solo\"}, {\"name\": \"Leia Organa\"} ] } } graphql-php runtime parses Queries, makes sure that they are valid for given Type System and executes using data fetching tools provided by you as a part of integration. Queries are supposed to be idempotent. Mutations Mutations use advanced features of the very same query language (like arguments and variables) and have only semantic difference from Queries: mutation CreateReviewForEpisode($ep: Episode!, $review: ReviewInput!) { createReview(episode: $ep, review: $review) { stars commentary } } Variables $ep and $review are sent alongside with mutation. Full HTTP request might look like this: // POST /graphql-endpoint // Content-Type: application/javascript // { \"query\": \"mutation CreateReviewForEpisode...\", \"variables\": { \"ep\": \"JEDI\", \"review\": { \"stars\": 5, \"commentary\": \"This is a great movie!\" } } } As you see variables may include complex objects and they will be correctly validated by graphql-php runtime. Another nice feature of GraphQL mutations is that they also hold the query for data to be returned after mutation. In our example mutation will return: { \"createReview\": { \"stars\": 5, \"commentary\": \"This is a great movie!\" } } Type System Conceptually GraphQL type is a collection of fields.

Result returned by resolve function is directly included in the response (for scalars and enums) or passed down to nested fields (for objects). Let's walk through an example. Consider following GraphQL query: { lastStory { title author { name } } } We need a Schema that can fulfill it. On the very top level the Schema contains Query type: 'Query', 'fields' => [ 'lastStory' => [ 'type' => $blogStoryType, 'resolve' => function() { return [ 'id' => 1, 'title' => 'Example blog post', 'authorId' => 1 ]; } ] ] ]); As we see field lastStory has resolve function that is responsible for fetching data. In our example, we simply return array value, but in the real-world application you would query your database/cache/search index and return the result. Since lastStory is of composite type BlogStory this result is passed down to fields of this type: 'BlogStory', 'fields' => [ 'author' => [ 'type' => $userType, 'resolve' => function($blogStory) { $users = [ 1 => [ 'id' => 1, 'name' => 'Smith' ], 2 => [ 'id' => 2, 'name' => 'Anderson' ] ]; return $users[$blogStory['authorId']]; } ], 'title' => [ 'type' => Type::string() ] ] ]); Here $blogStory is the array returned by lastStory field above. Again: in the real-world applications you would fetch user data from data store by authorId and return it. Also, note that you don't have to return arrays. You can return any value, graphql-php will pass it untouched to nested resolvers. But then the question appears - field title has no resolve option. How is it resolved? There is a default resolver for all fields. When you define your own resolve function for a field you simply override this default resolver. Default Field Resolver graphql-php provides following default field resolver: fieldName; $property = null; if (is_array($source) || $source instanceof \\ArrayAccess) { if (isset($source[$fieldName])) { $property = $source[$fieldName]; } } else if (is_object($source)) { if (isset($source->{$fieldName})) { $property = $source->{$fieldName}; } } return $property instanceof Closure ? $property($source, $args, $context, $info) : $property; } As you see it returns value by key (for arrays) or property (for objects). If the value is not set - it returns null . To override the default resolver, pass it as an argument of executeQuery call. Default Field Resolver per Type Sometimes it might be convenient to set default field resolver per type. You can do so by providing resolveField option in type config . For example: 'User', 'fields' => [ 'name' => Type::string(), 'email' => Type::string() ], 'resolveField' => function(User $user, $args, $context, ResolveInfo $info) { switch ($info->fieldName) { case 'name': return $user->getName(); case 'email': return $user->getEmail(); default: return null; } } ]); Keep in mind that field resolver has precedence over default field resolver per type which in turn has precedence over default field resolver . Solving N+1 Problem Since: 0.9.0 One of the most annoying problems with data fetching is a so-called N+1 problem . Consider following GraphQL query: { topStories(limit: 10) { title author { name email } } } Naive field resolution process would require up to 10 calls to the underlying data store to fetch authors for all 10 stories. graphql-php provides tools to mitigate this problem: it allows you to defer actual field resolution to a later stage when one batched query could be executed instead of 10 distinct queries. Here is an example of BlogStory resolver for field author that uses deferring: function($blogStory) { MyUserBuffer::add($blogStory['authorId']); return new GraphQL\\Deferred(function () use ($blogStory) { MyUserBuffer::loadBuffered(); return MyUserBuffer::get($blogStory['authorId']); }); } In this example, we fill up the buffer with 10 author ids first. Then graphql-php continues resolving other non-deferred fields until there are none of them left. After that, it calls closures wrapped by GraphQL\\Deferred which in turn load all buffered ids once (using SQL IN(?), Redis MGET or other similar tools) and returns final field value. Originally this approach was advocated by Facebook in their Dataloader project. This solution enables very interesting optimizations at no cost. Consider the following query: { topStories(limit: 10) { author { email } } category { stories(limit: 10) { author { email } } } } Even though author field is located on different levels of the query - it can be buffered in the same buffer. In this example, only one query will be executed for all story authors comparing to 20 queries in a naive implementation. Async PHP Since: 0.10.0 (version 0.9.0 had slightly different API which still works, but is deprecated) If your project runs in an environment that supports async operations (like HHVM, ReactPHP, Icicle.io, appserver.io, PHP threads, etc) you can leverage the power of your platform to resolve some fields asynchronously. The only requirement: your platform must support the concept of Promises compatible with Promises A+ specification. To start using this feature, switch facade method for query execution from executeQuery to promiseToExecute : then(function(ExecutionResult $result) { return $result->toArray(); }); Where $promiseAdapter is an instance of: For ReactPHP (requires react/promise as composer dependency): GraphQL\\Executor\\Promise\\Adapter\\ReactPromiseAdapter Other platforms: write your own class implementing interface: GraphQL\\Executor\\Promise\\PromiseAdapter .

Instead, all errors are caught and collected. After execution, they are available in $errors prop of GraphQL\\Executor\\ExecutionResult . When the result is converted to a serializable array using its toArray() method, all errors are converted to arrays as well using default error formatting (see below). Alternatively, you can apply custom error filtering and formatting for your specific requirements. Default Error formatting By default, each error entry is converted to an associative array with following structure: 'Error message', 'category' => 'graphql', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 1, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'listField', 0, 'fieldWithException' ] ]; Entry at key locations points to a character in query string which caused the error. In some cases (like deep fragment fields) locations will include several entries to track down the path to field with the error in query. Entry at key path exists only for errors caused by exceptions thrown in resolvers. It contains a path from the very root field to actual field value producing an error (including indexes for list types and field names for composite types). Internal errors As of version 0.10.0 , all exceptions thrown in resolvers are reported with generic message \"Internal server error\" . This is done to avoid information leak in production environments (e.g. database connection errors, file access errors, etc). Only exceptions implementing interface GraphQL\\Error\\ClientAware and claiming themselves as safe will be reported with a full error message. For example: 'My reported error', 'category' => 'businessLogic', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 10, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'path', 'to', 'fieldWithException' ] ]; To change default \"Internal server error\" message to something else, use: GraphQL\\Error\\FormattedError::setInternalErrorMessage(\"Unexpected error\"); Debugging tools During development or debugging use $result->toArray(true) to add debugMessage key to each formatted error entry. If you also want to add exception trace - pass flags instead: use GraphQL\\Error\\Debug; $debug = Debug::INCLUDE_DEBUG_MESSAGE | Debug::INCLUDE_TRACE; $result = GraphQL::executeQuery(/*args*/)->toArray($debug); This will make each error entry to look like this: 'Actual exception message', 'message' => 'Internal server error', 'category' => 'internal', 'locations' => [ ['line' => 10, 'column' => 2] ], 'path' => [ 'listField', 0, 'fieldWithException' ], 'trace' => [ /* Formatted original exception trace */ ] ]; If you prefer the first resolver exception to be re-thrown, use following flags: toArray($debug); If you only want to re-throw Exceptions that are not marked as safe through the ClientAware interface, use the flag Debug::RETHROW_UNSAFE_EXCEPTIONS .

If it is not the case - first learn about GraphQL on the official website . Installation Using composer , run: composer require webonyx/graphql-php Upgrading We try to keep library releases backwards compatible. But when breaking changes are inevitable they are explained in upgrade instructions . Install Tools (optional) While it is possible to communicate with GraphQL API using regular HTTP tools it is way more convenient for humans to use GraphiQL - an in-browser IDE for exploring GraphQL APIs. It provides syntax-highlighting, auto-completion and auto-generated documentation for GraphQL API. The easiest way to use it is to install one of the existing Google Chrome extensions: ChromeiQL GraphiQL Feen Alternatively, you can follow instructions on the GraphiQL page and install it locally. Hello World Let's create a type system that will be capable to process following simple query: query { echo(message: \"Hello World\") } To do so we need an object type with field echo : 'Query', 'fields' => [ 'echo' => [ 'type' => Type::string(), 'args' => [ 'message' => Type::nonNull(Type::string()), ], 'resolve' => function ($root, $args) { return $root['prefix'] . $args['message']; } ], ], ]); (Note: type definition can be expressed in different styles , but this example uses inline style for simplicity) The interesting piece here is resolve option of field definition. It is responsible for returning a value of our field. Values of scalar fields will be directly included in response while values of composite fields (objects, interfaces, unions) will be passed down to nested field resolvers (not in this example though). Now when our type is ready, let's create GraphQL endpoint file for it graphql.php : $queryType ]); $rawInput = file_get_contents('php://input'); $input = json_decode($rawInput, true); $query = $input['query']; $variableValues = isset($input['variables']) ? $input['variables'] : null; try { $rootValue = ['prefix' => 'You said: ']; $result = GraphQL::executeQuery($schema, $query, $rootValue, null, $variableValues); $output = $result->toArray(); } catch (\\Exception $e) { $output = [ 'errors' => [ [ 'message' => $e->getMessage() ] ] ]; } header('Content-Type: application/json'); echo json_encode($output); Our example is finished.

Capable of printing GraphQL queries and Type definition language. * * @param Node $ast * * @return string * * @api */ static function doPrint($ast) GraphQL\\Language\\Visitor Utility for efficient AST traversal and modification. visit() will walk through an AST using a depth first traversal, calling the visitor's enter function at each node in the traversal, and calling the leave function after visiting that node and all of it's child nodes. By returning different values from the enter and leave functions, the behavior of the visitor can be altered, including skipping over a sub-tree of the AST (by returning false), editing the AST by returning a value or null to remove the value, or to stop the whole traversal by returning BREAK. When using visit() to edit an AST, the original AST will not be modified, and a new version of the AST with the changes applied will be returned from the visit function. $editedAST = Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => function ($node, $key, $parent, $path, $ancestors) { // return // null: no action // Visitor::skipNode(): skip visiting this node // Visitor::stop(): stop visiting altogether // Visitor::removeNode(): delete this node // any value: replace this node with the returned value }, 'leave' => function ($node, $key, $parent, $path, $ancestors) { // return // null: no action // Visitor::stop(): stop visiting altogether // Visitor::removeNode(): delete this node // any value: replace this node with the returned value } ]); Alternatively to providing enter() and leave() functions, a visitor can instead provide functions named the same as the kinds of AST nodes , or enter/leave visitors at a named key, leading to four permutations of visitor API: 1) Named visitors triggered when entering a node a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'Kind' => function ($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } ]); 2) Named visitors that trigger upon entering and leaving a node of a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'Kind' => [ 'enter' => function ($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } 'leave' => function ($node) { // leave the \"Kind\" node } ] ]); 3) Generic visitors that trigger upon entering and leaving any node. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => function ($node) { // enter any node }, 'leave' => function ($node) { // leave any node } ]); 4) Parallel visitors for entering and leaving nodes of a specific kind. Visitor::visit($ast, [ 'enter' => [ 'Kind' => function($node) { // enter the \"Kind\" node } }, 'leave' => [ 'Kind' => function ($node) { // leave the \"Kind\" node } ] ]); Class Methods: /** * Visit the AST (see class description for details) * * @param Node|ArrayObject|stdClass $root * @param callable[] $visitor * @param mixed[]|null $keyMap * * @return Node|mixed * * @throws Exception * * @api */ static function visit($root, $visitor, $keyMap = null) /** * Returns marker for visitor break * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function stop() /** * Returns marker for skipping current node * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function skipNode() /** * Returns marker for removing a node * * @return VisitorOperation * * @api */ static function removeNode() GraphQL\\Language\\AST\\NodeKind Class Constants: const NAME = \"Name\"; const DOCUMENT = \"Document\"; const OPERATION_DEFINITION = \"OperationDefinition\"; const VARIABLE_DEFINITION = \"VariableDefinition\"; const VARIABLE = \"Variable\"; const SELECTION_SET = \"SelectionSet\"; const FIELD = \"Field\"; const ARGUMENT = \"Argument\"; const FRAGMENT_SPREAD = \"FragmentSpread\"; const INLINE_FRAGMENT = \"InlineFragment\"; const FRAGMENT_DEFINITION = \"FragmentDefinition\"; const INT = \"IntValue\"; const FLOAT = \"FloatValue\"; const STRING = \"StringValue\"; const BOOLEAN = \"BooleanValue\"; const ENUM = \"EnumValue\"; const NULL = \"NullValue\"; const LST = \"ListValue\"; const OBJECT = \"ObjectValue\"; const OBJECT_FIELD = \"ObjectField\"; const DIRECTIVE = \"Directive\"; const NAMED_TYPE = \"NamedType\"; const LIST_TYPE = \"ListType\"; const NON_NULL_TYPE = \"NonNullType\"; const SCHEMA_DEFINITION = \"SchemaDefinition\"; const OPERATION_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"OperationTypeDefinition\"; const SCALAR_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"ScalarTypeDefinition\"; const OBJECT_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"ObjectTypeDefinition\"; const FIELD_DEFINITION = \"FieldDefinition\"; const INPUT_VALUE_DEFINITION = \"InputValueDefinition\"; const INTERFACE_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"InterfaceTypeDefinition\"; const UNION_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"UnionTypeDefinition\"; const ENUM_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"EnumTypeDefinition\"; const ENUM_VALUE_DEFINITION = \"EnumValueDefinition\"; const INPUT_OBJECT_TYPE_DEFINITION = \"InputObjectTypeDefinition\"; const SCALAR_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"ScalarTypeExtension\"; const OBJECT_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"ObjectTypeExtension\"; const INTERFACE_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"InterfaceTypeExtension\"; const UNION_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"UnionTypeExtension\"; const ENUM_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"EnumTypeExtension\"; const INPUT_OBJECT_TYPE_EXTENSION = \"InputObjectTypeExtension\"; const DIRECTIVE_DEFINITION = \"DirectiveDefinition\"; const SCHEMA_EXTENSION = \"SchemaExtension\"; GraphQL\\Executor\\Executor Implements the \"Evaluating requests\" section of the GraphQL specification.

Also as we see arguments can be of complex types. To leverage the full power of mutations (and field arguments in general) you must learn how to create complex input types. About Input and Output Types All types in GraphQL are of two categories: input and output . Output types (or field types) are: Scalar , Enum , Object , Interface , Union Input types (or argument types) are: Scalar , Enum , InputObject Obviously, NonNull and List types belong to both categories depending on their inner type. Until now all examples of field arguments in this documentation were of Scalar or Enum types. But you can also pass complex objects.

It is similar to ObjectType except that it's fields have no args or resolve options and their type must be input type. In graphql-php Input Object Type is an instance of GraphQL\\Type\\Definition\\InputObjectType (or one of it subclasses) which accepts configuration array in constructor: 'StoryFiltersInput', 'fields' => [ 'author' => [ 'type' => Type::id(), 'description' => 'Only show stories with this author id' ], 'popular' => [ 'type' => Type::boolean(), 'description' => 'Only show popular stories (liked by several people)' ], 'tags' => [ 'type' => Type::listOf(Type::string()), 'description' => 'Only show stories which contain all of those tags' ] ] ]); Every field may be of other InputObjectType (thus complex hierarchies of inputs are possible) Configuration options The constructor of InputObjectType accepts array with only 3 options: Option Type Notes name string Required.
