This is a simple example of how to use Apollo Server 4 with TypeGraphQL and TypeORM, it also uses TypeDI for dependency injection. Database migrations are also set up in the src/database/migrations folder.
The repo has a few examples of GraphQL resolvers and how to use entities, services and repositories to fetch data from a database.
To get started, clone this repository and run pnpm install to install the dependencies.
This project uses a PostgreSQL database. You can use Docker to run a PostgreSQL database locally.
docker-compose up -d
To run the migrations, run pnpm run migration:run. This will run all the migrations in the src/database/migrations folder.
To create a new migration, run pnpm run migration:create ./src/database/migrations/<name>. This will create a new migration in the src/database/migrations folder.
To revert the last migration, run pnpm run migration:revert. This will revert the last migration.
To run the server, run pnpm start. This will start the server on port 4000.
