PersistGraphQL Webpack Plugin

Webpack Plugin for working with Persisted GraphQL Queries with Hot Code Replacement support.

Installation

npm install --save-dev persistgraphql-webpack-plugin

Usage with Webpack 2

When Webpack is used for front-end only

Sample Webpack config:

var PersistGraphQLPlugin = require('persistgraphql-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.jsx?$/,
        // ...
        use: [
          'babel-loader', 
          // Should come AFTER babel-loader
          'persistgraphql-webpack-plugin/js-loader'
        ]
      },
      {
        test: /\.(graphql|gql)$/,
        use: [
          'graphql-tag/loader', 
          // Should come AFTER graphql-tag/loader
          'persistgraphql-webpack-plugin/graphql-loader'
        ]
      },
    ]
  }
  
  plugins: [
    new PersistGraphQLPlugin({filename: 'persisted_queries.json', 
        moduleName: path.resolve('node_modules/persisted_queries.json')})
  ]
};

In the source code of front-end persisted GraphQL queries will be injected as a virtual module persisted_queries.json. This module will be updated if queries added or changed. Also asset with name persisted_queries.json will be generated during compilation and written to output directory.

var queryMap = require('persisted_queries.json');
console.log(queryMap);

When Webpack is used both for back-end and front-end

var PersistGraphQLPlugin = require('persistgraphql-webpack-plugin');

const moduleName = path.resolve('node_modules/persisted_queries.json');
const frontendPersistPlugin = new PersistGraphQLPlugin({ moduleName });
const backendPersistPlugin = 
    new PersistGraphQLPlugin({ provider: clientPersistPlugin, moduleName });

var frontendWebpackConfig = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.jsx?$/,
        // ...
        use: [
          'babel-loader', 
          // Should come AFTER babel
          'persistgraphql-webpack-plugin/js-loader'
        ]
      },
      {
        test: /\.(graphql|gql)$/,
        use: [
          'graphql-tag/loader', 
          // Should come AFTER graphql-tag/loader
          'persistgraphql-webpack-plugin/graphql-loader'
        ]
      },
    ]
  }
  
  plugins: [
    frontendPersistPlugin
  ]
};

var backendWebpackConfig = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    backendPersistPlugin
  ]
}

Both in the source code of front-end and back-end persisted GraphQL queries will be injected as a virtual module node_modules/persisted_queries.json. This module will be updated if queries added or changed.

var queryMap = require('persisted_queries.json');
console.log(queryMap);
