Getting started: build a GraphQL Form in 5 minutes

Install the library

• yarn add react-apollo-form OR
• npm i react-apollo-form

then, add to your package.json scripts section:

"react-apollo-form": "react-apollo-form fetch-mutations <graphqlEndpoint> <outpurDir>"

• graphqlEndpoint should be the url of your GraphQL API, ex: "http://localhost:3000/graphql"
• outpurDir should be the path where files will be generated, ex: "./src/core/forms"

---

Generating "meta" files

Just run npm run react-apollo-form.

You should see 3 steps : "schema download", "mutations types generations", "json schema generation".

If the commands do not finish with "Done.", please check:

• that your GraphQL server is accessible (up and without authentication)
• that your GraphQL server has 'introspection' enabled !
• that the outputDir is writable
