Small project to show how GraphQL works using as example Hogwarts.

The project uses the House-Student relation to show how easy becomes to join different MongoDB collections from the client thanks to GraphQL.

It also provides a mutation to add or substract points to a specific house, to make Hogwarts teacher's lifes easier.

• Create a .env file with the content described in the section below, adding the correct PORT and DDBB connection string.
• Execute the seed by running the command yarn db:seed.
• Start the project with either yarn start or yarn dev.
• Go to http://locahost:${PORT}/graphql to view GraphiQL and be able to execute your queries.

Find below the .env file sample:

PORT=
DATABASE_URL=

The information in the fields is the following:

• PORT: Port that will be used to run the project locally.
• DATABASE_URL: Connection string to allow use an external database, either from local or in the Cloud.

The project contains three scripts to make its usage easier:

• db:seed: Inserts some default data in the database to start playing around with data. You can update the information by changing the content that you will find in data/seed.js.
• dev: Will run nodemon to start the project in a DEV environment, auto-reloading the server with every change you do.
• start: Will execute the project in a PROD environment.

• Node.js
• Express
• GraphQL
• MongoDB
