A GraphQL API for my timesheet app, TimeRocket.
This is a sample app I'm building for learning about GraphQL and associated tools.
In building this app I may pick up a few coding styles that do not conform to the common practices. But hey, it might end up being a good idea! :P I'll log some of that stuff here.
I thought the standard GraphQL types like GraphQLString and GraphQLObjectType were a bit verbose. As an alternative, I decided to rename GraphQL types on import to be shorter and more readable by replacing the GraphQL prefix with _ and removing the Type postfix if there is one.
// Old
import {
GraphQLObjectType,
GraphQLString
} from 'graphql';
// New
import {
GraphQLObjectType as _Object,
GraphQLString as _String
} from 'graphql';And usage:
// Old
firstName: { type: GraphQLString }
// New
firstName: { type: _String }
