hexastack-graphql

Strawberry GraphQL presentation adapter and CQRS integration for Hexastack.

1. Overview & Capabilities

hexastack-graphql brings the power and type-safety of Strawberry GraphQL into the Hexastack architecture:

• Type-Safe GraphQL Schemas: Native Python dataclass-based GraphQL schema definition via Strawberry.
• CQRS Integration via Context: Injects the rodi.Container, CommandBusPort, and QueryBusPort directly into Strawberry's Info.context (GraphQLContext).
• Declarative Query & Mutation Registries:
  • @graphql_query_type and @graphql_mutation_type: Register whole type classes to be merged into root Query and Mutation types.
  • @graphql_query and @graphql_mutation: Register standalone resolver functions as top-level fields.
• Dynamic Field Resolver Feature Flagging:
  • @feature_flag_field("flag_key", raise_error=True, fallback=...): Evaluates feature flags dynamically before executing field resolvers, raising a GraphQLError or returning a safe fallback value.
• FastAPI Mount & GraphiQL Playground: Seamless mounting as a GraphQLRouter into FastAPI applications with interactive GraphiQL playground enabled.

Explicit Dependencies (Direct)

• hexastack-core: DI container, configuration registry, base exceptions.
• hexastack-cqrs: CommandBusPort and QueryBusPort for message dispatching.
• strawberry-graphql>=0.260.0: Core GraphQL engine and schema generator.

Implied / Behavioral Relationships (DI-Mediated)

• FastAPI Auto-Mounting: GraphQLBootstrapper (order=35) discovers the FastAPI instance created by FastApiBootstrapper (order=30) and attaches the GraphQLRouter automatically if auto_mount_fastapi=true.
• CQRS Dispatching: Field resolvers receive info.context.query_bus and info.context.command_bus to delegate execution into the CQRS pipeline.

Optional Integrations (Extras)

• [fastapi]: Installs hexastack-fastapi and fastapi>=0.141.1 for HTTP routing and GraphiQL playground.

4. Installation

# Standalone install
pip install hexastack-graphql

# With FastAPI integration
pip install "hexastack-graphql[fastapi]"

# Via umbrella package
pip install "hexastack[graphql]"

5. Configuration Reference

[hexastack.graphql]
path = "/graphql" # Route prefix for GraphQL endpoint
graphiql = true # Enable interactive GraphiQL web UI
allow_queries = true
allow_mutations = true
auto_mount_fastapi = true # Auto mount onto FastAPI application on bootstrap
title = "Hexastack GraphQL API"

6. Quickstart Example

from dataclasses import dataclass
import strawberry
from strawberry.types import Info
from hexastack_core.infra.bootstrap import bootstrap
from hexastack_cqrs.domain.query import Query
from hexastack_cqrs.infra.decorators import query_handler
from hexastack_graphql.domain.context import GraphQLContext
from hexastack_graphql.infra.decorators import graphql_query_type


# 1. Define CQRS Query & Handler
@dataclass(frozen=True)
class GetItemQuery(Query):
    item_id: str


@query_handler(GetItemQuery)
class GetItemHandler:
    def __call__(self, qry: GetItemQuery) -> dict:
        return {"id": qry.item_id, "name": f"Item {qry.item_id}"}


# 2. Define Strawberry GraphQL Type
@strawberry.type
class ItemType:
    id: str
    name: str


@graphql_query_type
class Query:
    @strawberry.field
    def item(self, info: Info[GraphQLContext, None], item_id: str) -> ItemType:
        res = info.context.query_bus.dispatch(GetItemQuery(item_id=item_id))
        return ItemType(id=res["id"], name=res["name"])


# 3. Bootstrap Runtime with GraphQL
runtime = bootstrap(packages_to_scan=[__name__])
schema = runtime.get("graphql_schema")

result = schema.execute_sync(
    '{ item(itemId: "123") { id name } }',
    context_value=GraphQLContext(
        container=runtime.container, query_bus=runtime.get("query_bus")
    ),
)
print(result.data)  # {'item': {'id': '123', 'name': 'Item 123'}}
