NulogyGraphqlApi

Intent

Help Nulogy applications be compliant with the Standard on Error-handling in GraphQL.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "nulogy_graphql_api", "3.0.1"

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install nulogy_graphql_api

Usage

Developing

Testing

Receiving Requests

Given that you have already defined your GraphQL Schema you can receive requests by defining a controller action and execute the params by calling the NulogyGraphqlApi::GraphqlExecutor.

  • Remember to configure your routes to include the controller action.
  • We called the action execute in the example below, but you can call it whatever makes more sense for your app.
module MyApp
  class GraphqlApiController < ApplicationController
    include NulogyGraphqlApi::ErrorHandling

    def execute
      NulogyGraphqlApi::GraphqlExecutor.execute(
        params,
        context,
        Schema,
        NulogyGraphqlApi::TransactionService.new
      )
    end
  end
end

Error Handling

The NulogyGraphqlApi::ErrorHandling concern rescues from any unhandled StandardError. If you need to log errors before the response is sent to the client you can override the render_error method.

module MyApp
  class GraphqlApiController < ApplicationController
    include NulogyGraphqlApi::ErrorHandling

    def render_error(exception)
      MyApp::ExceptionNotifier.notify(exception)

      super
    end
  end
end

Types

UserErrorType

This type provides a way of returning end-user errors. You can find more details about this error handling strategy in this document.

module MyApp
  class CreateEntity < GraphQL::Schema::Mutation
    field :entity, MyApp::EntityType, null: false
    field :errors, [NulogyGraphqlApi::Types::UserErrorType], null: false

    def resolve(args)
      entity = create_entity(args)

      {
        entity: entity,
        errors: extract_errors(entity)
      }
    end

    def extract_errors(entity)
      entity.errors.map do |attribute, message|
        {
          path: path_for(attribute),
          message: entity.errors.full_message(attribute, message)
        }
      end
    end
  end
end

UUID

This type provides a way of returning UUID values.

module MyApp
  class EntityType < GraphQL::Schema::Object
    field :id, NulogyGraphqlApi::Types::UUID, null: false
  end
end

Schema Generation

There is a Rake task to generate the schema.graphql file. You need to provide the schema_file_path and the schema class so that the task can detect breaking changes and generate the file. If you don't have a schema file because it's your first time generating it then the rake task will just create one for you in the path provided.

namespace :graphql_api do
  desc "Generate the graphql schema of the api."

  task :generate_schema => :environment do
    schema_file_path = MyApp::Engine.root.join("schema.graphql")
    schema = MyApp::Namespace::To::Schema

    NulogyGraphqlApi::Tasks::SchemaGenerator
      .new(schema_file_path, schema)
      .write_schema_to_file
  end
end

RSpec helpers

Add this to your spec_helpers.rb file:

require "nulogy_graphql_api/rspec"

Then you can include helpers and matchers as in:

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include NulogyGraphqlApi::GraphqlMatchers, graphql: true
  config.include NulogyGraphqlApi::GraphqlHelpers, graphql: true
end

Test helpers

The execute_graphql helper execute GraphQL operations directly against the provided schema. This is how it can be used:

RSpec.describe MyApp::Graphql::Query, :graphql do
  let(:schema) { MyApp::Schema }

  it "returns an entity" do
    entity = create(:entity)

    response = execute_graphql(<<~GRAPHQL, schema)
      query {
        entity(id: "#{entity.id}") {
          id
        }
      }
    GRAPHQL

    expect(response).to have_graphql_data(
      project: {
        id: entity.id
      }
    )
  end
end

The request_graphql helper issues a POST request against the provided URL. This is how it can be used:

RSpec.describe MyApp::Graphql::Query, :graphql, type: :request do
  it "returns 401 Unauthorized given an unauthenticated request" do
      gql_response = request_graphql(url, <<~GRAPHQL, headers: { "HTTP_AUTHORIZATION" => nil }, user: default_user)
        query {
          entities {
            id
          }
        }
      GRAPHQL

      expect(response.status).to eq(401)
      expect(gql_response).to have_graphql_error("Unauthorized")
    end
end

Custom matchers

Use have_graphql_data for checking the response data.

expect(response).to have_graphql_data(
  project: {
    id: entity.id
  }
)

Use have_graphql_error for matching exactly on the response errors.
The match succeeds when the errors array contains a single entry with the specified message.

expect(response).to have_graphql_error("Error message")

Use include_graphql_error for matching inclusively on the response errors.
The match succeeds when the errors array includes an entry with the specified message.

expect(response).to include_graphql_error("Error message")

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To test against all supported versions of rails run bundle exec appraisal install and then run bundle exec appraisal rake.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Contributing

We treat this project as an internal "open source" project. Everyone at Nulogy is welcome to submit Pull Requests.

Submitting Pull Requests

The Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) for this project is Daniel Silva.

When you are happy with your changes:

  1. Add description of changes to the top of the CHANGELOG file, under the master (unreleased) section subdivided into the following categories:

    • New Features
    • Bug Fixes
    • Changes
      • prepend these with (Breaking), (Potentially Breaking) or just leave it blank in case neither applies

  2. Create a Pull Request.

  3. Notify #project-nulogy-graphql-api Slack channel to get the DRI review and merge your changes.

Merging Pull Requests

Add a comment to the PR with the command /integrate. This will trigger the Integrate GitHub action that runs checks (Rubocop, RSpec) and merges the code into the base branch.

Releasing a new version

  1. Take a look at the changes listed under master (unreleased) at the top of the CHANGELOG in order to define the new version according to the rules of Semantic Versioning.

  2. Change the version.rb file.

    module NulogyGraphqlApi
    VERSION = "2.1.3"
end

  3. Add a title to the list of changes with the new version following the format: X.Y.Z (YYYY-MM-DD). Keep the master (unreleased) title and add none underneath it. This is how the top of the changelog should look like:

    ## master (unreleased)

_none_

## 2.1.3 (2023-12-06)

**Changes**
* Support appraisal 2.5.x
* Support rake 13.1.x
* Support rspec 3.12.x

  4. Commit these changes. Suggested commit message: Release new version.

  5. Go to the Release GitHub action and run a new workflow. The new version will be pushed to rubygems.
