gqlPrune: GraphQL Unused Operations Checker

gqlPrune is a utility that identifies unused GraphQL operations (queries, mutations, subscriptions) in your project. It scans .gql files for operations and checks their usage in your TypeScript/JavaScript files.

Setup

Installation:

To install gqlPrune, run the following command:

npm install gqlPrune

Configuration:

Upon running the init command with gqlPrune, it will launch a configurator that generates a configuration file named gqlPrune.config.yaml. This file should be located at the root of your project.

Example:

npx gqlPrune init

graphqlDir: path_to_your_graphql_files
srcDir: path_to_your_source_files
excludedFolders:
  - folder_name_to_exclude

• graphqlDir: Directory path containing your .gql files.
• srcDir: Directory path containing your source files (e.g., .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx).
• excludedFolders: List of folder names you wish to exclude from the search.

Usage

To execute gqlPrune:

npx gqlPrune

This command will display a list of unused GraphQL operations in the console.

Output

The utility outputs the type of operation (query, mutation, subscription), the operation's name, and the filename where the operation is defined. For instance:

query    OperationName       operationFile.query.gql

Customization

To exclude additional folders from the search, simply update the excludedFolders list in the gqlPrune.config.yaml file.
