dream-postgres-graphql

Combines a few of the features of some of the Dream examples, in particular h-sql, i-graphql and w-postgres. Accesses the person table in a demo database.

The URL /view displays an HTML view of everything in the database table. Using the query query parameters after and/or first gives a partial Relay-style pagination. For example, /view?after=2&first=3 will get the 3rd, 4th and 5th rows of the table.

The URL / displays a GraphiQL interface to a GraphQL schema for the same table. The person query has the same optional after and first pagination arguments.

  • bin/main.ml: Main program / starting point. This is where you see the Dream handler / middleware / router pipeline.

  • lib/person.ml[i]: Person model

  • lib/sql.ml[i]: Caqti types and query for fetching people from the database

  • lib/api.ml[i]: GraphQL schema definition

  • templates/person.eml.html: HTML/OCaml template for displaying a single person as a table row. (A bit like a Jinja2 macro.)

  • templates/page.eml.html: HTML/OCaml template for the people page

opam install dream caqti-driver-postgresql

Create an empty Postgres database called demo, then run

psql --file=db.sql demo

and it should create and populate the tables you'll need.
