asyncio + graphql = fast and simple api

Project description

  • asyncio - explicit concurrency to reduce race conditions

  • graphql - all you need and nothing more in one request +auto docs of your api

  • uvloop, protocol - top performance

  • minimal http - unlike REST frameworks that are waste of time for /graphql endpoint

  • pluggable context - for auth, logging, etc

  • exception handling - at all levels, with default or custom handler

Usage:

pip install aiographql

cat <<'END' >serve.py
import asyncio, aiographql, graphene

class User(graphene.ObjectType):
    id = graphene.ID(required=True)
    name = graphene.String()

class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
    me = graphene.Field(User)

    async def resolve_me(self, info):
        await asyncio.sleep(1)  # DB
        return User(id=42, name='John')

schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query, mutation=None)

aiographql.serve(schema, listen=[
    dict(protocol='tcp', port=25100),
    dict(protocol='unix', path='/tmp/worker0'),
])
END

python3 serve.py

curl http://localhost:25100/ --data-binary \
'{"query": "{
    me {
        id
        name
    }
}", "variables": null}'

# OR:
curl --unix-socket /tmp/worker0 http:/ --data-binary ...

# Result:
# 1 second async await for DB and then:
{"data":{"me":{"id":"42","name":"John"}}}

See more examples and tests about JWT auth, concurrent slow DB queries, etc.

Config:

import aiographql; help(aiographql.serve)

serve(schema, listen, get_context=None, exception_handler=None, enable_uvloop=True, run=True)
    Configure the stack and start serving requests
  • schema: graphene.Schema - GraphQL schema to serve

  • listen: list - one or more endpoints to listen for connections:

  • get_context: None or [async] callable(loop, context: dict): mixed - to produce GraphQL context like auth from input unified with exception_handler()

  • exception_handler: None or callable(loop, context: dict) - default or custom exception handler as defined in the docs +

    • headers: bytes or None - HTTP headers, if known

    • request: dict or bytes or None - accumulated HTTP request before content length is known, then accumulated content, then GraphQL request

  • enable_uvloop: bool - enable uvloop for top performance, unless you have a better loop

  • run: bool - if True, run the loop; False is good for tests

  • return servers: Servers - await servers.close() to close listening sockets - good for tests
