Class GraphQL

java.lang.Object

graphql.GraphQL

@PublicApi
public class GraphQL
extends java.lang.Object

This class is where all graphql-java query execution begins. It combines the objects that are needed to make a successful graphql query, with the most important being the schema and the execution strategy

Building this object is very cheap and can be done on each execution if necessary. Building the schema is often not as cheap, especially if its parsed from graphql IDL schema format via SchemaParser.

The data for a query is returned via ExecutionResult.getData() and any errors encountered as placed in ExecutionResult.getErrors().

Runtime Exceptions

Runtime exceptions can be thrown by the graphql engine if certain situations are encountered. These are not errors in execution but rather totally unacceptable conditions in which to execute a graphql query.

• CoercingSerializeException - is thrown when a value cannot be serialised by a Scalar type, for example a String value being coerced as an Int.
• UnresolvedTypeException - is thrown if a TypeResolver fails to provide a concrete object type given a interface or union type.
• InvalidSchemaException - is thrown if the schema is not valid when built via GraphQLSchema.Builder.build()
• GraphQLException - is thrown as a general purpose runtime exception, for example if the code cant access a named field when examining a POJO.
• AssertException - is thrown as a low level code assertion exception for truly unexpected code conditions

transform

public GraphQL transform(java.util.function.Consumer<GraphQL.Builder> builderConsumer)

This helps you transform the current GraphQL object into another one by starting a builder with all the current values and allows you to transform it how you want.

Parameters:
