Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Actions need HTTP handlers to run the business logic. It might be inconvenient
|
|
to write the complete handler code for every action. Luckily, GraphQL's type
|
|
system allows us to auto-generate the boilerplate code for actions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Hasura currently has codegen set up for a few frameworks. The list of
|
|
supported frameworks should grow with contributions from the
|
|
community.

Generating handler code for your action
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. rst-class:: api_tabs
|
|
.. tabs::
|
|
|
|
.. tab:: Console
|
|
|
|
Head to the ``Actions -> [action-name] -> Codegen`` tab in the console
|
|
|
|
You can select the framework of your choice to get the corresponding
|
|
handler boilerplate code.

|
|
|
**Configuration**
|
|
|
|
Before being able to codegen for actions, you have to configure your CLI.
|
|
|
|
Run:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
hasura actions use-codegen
|
|
|
|
1. Choose which framework you want to codegen for:
|
|
|
|
.. thumbnail:: /img/graphql/manual/actions/cli-framework-prompt.png
|
|
:alt: CLI Framework Prompt
|
|
|
|
2. Choose if you also wish to clone a starter kit for the chosen framework:
|
|
|
|
.. thumbnail:: /img/graphql/manual/actions/cli-starter-kit-prompt.png
|
|
:alt: CLI Starter Kit Prompt
|
|
|
|
3. Choose a path where you want to output the auto-generated code files
|
|
|
|
.. thumbnail:: /img/graphql/manual/actions/cli-output-dir-prompt.png
|
|
:alt: CLI Starter Kit Prompt
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command will update your ``config.yaml`` with the codegen config as per
|
|
your preferences. You can also set these values manually in ``config.yaml``.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
:emphasize-lines: 8-10
|
|
|
|
version: "2"
|
|
endpoint: http://localhost:8080
|
|
metadata_directory: metadata
|
|
migrations_directory: migrations
|
|
actions:
|
|
handler_webhook_baseurl: http://localhost:3000
|
|
kind: synchronous
|
|
codegen:
|
|
framework: nodejs-express
|
|
output_dir: ./nodejs-express/src/handlers/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Codegen**
|
|
|
|
|
|
To finally get auto-generated code for an action, run:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
hasura actions codegen <action-name>
|
|
|
|
The codegen files will be generated at the ``output_dir`` path from ``config.yaml``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building a codegen for your framework
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
As of now, Hasura provides codegen for a few frameworks (``nodejs-express``,
|
|
``typescript-zeit``, etc).
|
|
|
|
If you wish to build a code generator for your framework
|
|
`read the contrib guide <https://github.com/hasura/codegen-builder-contrib/>`_.
