# GraphiQL IDE

We use graphiql editor wherever applicable for example showcase throughout docs.

A `GraphiQLIDE` component is already created with the required custom logic. So, use `GraphiQLIDE` just like any other
React component.

- Use a tab-width of 2 for nesting the requests and responses for optimal use of the space and maintaining consistency.
- Nest query arguments for logical readability. Unfortunately, GraphiQL prettify does not do a good job of doing this by
  default.
- Ensure that the order of fields in the responses is the same as in the requests for better readability.

Use it as follows:

```jsx
import GraphiQLIDE from '@site/src/components/GraphiQLIDE';

<GraphiQLIDE
  query={`query {
  author_by_pk(id: 1) {
    id
    name
  }
}`}
  response={`{
  "data": {
    "author_by_pk": {
      "id": 1,
      "name": "Justin"
    }
  }
}`}
/>;
```

```jsx
// highlight-start
import GraphiQLIDE from '@site/src/components/GraphiQLIDE';

<GraphiQLIDE
  query={`query get_authors_in_pincode ($jsonFilter: jsonb){
// highlight-end
    authors(
      where: {
        address: {_contains: $jsonFilter }
      }
    ) {
      id
      name
      address
    }
  }`}
  // highlight-next-line
  variables={`{
    "jsonFilter": {
      "pincode": 560095
    }
  }`}
  // highlight-next-line
  response={`{
    "data": {
      "authors": [
        {
          "id": 1,
          "name": "Ash",
          "address": {
            "street_address": "161, 19th Main Road, Koramangala 6th Block",
            "city": "Bengaluru",
            "state": "Karnataka",
            "pincode": 560095,
            "phone": "9090909090",
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }`}
/>;
```

## Result in UI

Below is how it should look in UI.

<GraphiQLIDE
  query={`query get_authors_in_pincode ($jsonFilter: jsonb){
    authors(
      where: {
        address: {_contains: $jsonFilter }
      }
    ) {
      id
      name
      address
    }
  }`}
  variables={`{
    "jsonFilter": {
      "pincode": 560095
    }
  }`}
  response={`{
    "data": {
      "authors": [
        {
          "id": 1,
          "name": "Ash",
          "address": {
            "street_address": "161, 19th Main Road, Koramangala 6th Block",
            "city": "Bengaluru",
            "state": "Karnataka",
            "pincode": 560095,
            "phone": "9090909090",
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }`}
/>
