Overview

I tried GraphQL with Drupal, so this is a personal note for future reference. The following document was helpful.

This assumes Drupal installed on Amazon Lightsail.

Module Installation

Install the following module.

However, it was necessary to install the following module beforehand.

As a result, the installation was completed with the following commands.

cd /home/bitnami/stack/drupal
composer require 'drupal/typed_data:^1.0@beta'
composer require 'drupal/graphql:^4.4'

I checked all three related modules below and installed them.

Access the following URL.

/admin/config/graphql

Under “Create server”, I configured it as follows. I named it test_server.

Access the following URL.

/admin/config/graphql/servers/manage/test_server/explorer

You will be redirected to the following screen.

Let’s try the following query.

{
  articles {
    total
  }
}

The following result is obtained.

{
  "data": {
    "articles": {
      "total": 5054
    }
  }
}

In the future, I would like to investigate usage methods with custom schemas as well. I hope this serves as a useful reference.
