Golang-Relay Starter Kit

This kit includes:

a NodeJS app server: to serve the front-end written with react-relay
a Golang GraphQL server: to serve the back-end graphql-go server that handles GraphQL queries
a Babel transpiler workflow using webpack that you can use to get started building an app with Relay.

For a walkthrough, see the Relay tutorial.

This is based on alpha version of graphql-go and graphql-relay-go. Be sure to watch both repositories for latest changes.

Installation

npm install

go get -v

Start a local server:

npm start

The above command will run both the NodeJS app server and Golang GraphQL server concurrently.

Any changes you make to files in the js/ directory will cause the server to automatically rebuild the app and refresh your browser.

Since Golang does not support loading package / module dynamically, remember to update the package import for schema data in:

For e.g

import (
  ...
  "github.com/sogko/golang-relay-starter-kit/data" // <--- update to package containing schema
)

If at any time you make changes to data/schema.go, stop the server, regenerate data/schema.json, and restart the server:

npm run update-schema
npm start

schema.json is needed by the JS code for ./build/babelRelayPlugin.js
