Testing the waters of GraphQL. Thought I'd create a simple backend in Django utilising GraphQL.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
To run this project you will need to have Python 3 installed on your machine. Just Google how to install it for your platform, but unless you are a Windows user, you'll probably have it installed already.
To setup a dev environment for this project you will need to install pipenv. After this you'll need to tell it to install all dependencies on the Pipfile.lock and to create a virtualenv using Python 3.
Just run these steps on your terminal/command line after you cd to the project folder.
pip install pipenv
pipenv install --three
After this you are ready to run the app. Just run pipenv run python manage.py runserver inside the project directory.
You can find this project on heroku by following https://graphql-django.herokuapp.com/graphiql/ and checking out the documentation or running queries. Go nuts!
- Django - The web framework used

This project was just a quick test of GraphQL, but if you want to add more stuff to it, feel free to contribute. I don't have a standard for contributions as I don't see this project as something to be worked on except for testing GraphQL, to be honest.
