GraphQL Query Until

under develop, publish yet.

graphql-query-until is designed for special case of SSR.

If you need to fetch data until last(or specific) cursor(offset), but apollo-client <Query>'s fetchMore doesn't seem to work in SSR(by getDataFromTree function).
So I tried to handle <Query> recursive way, and it works.

graphql-query-until is helper to handle this case. works {server, client} side both.

Installation

npm install graphql-query-until

Usage

Interface

interface Props<Props = any, Data = any, Variables = any> {
  query: DocumentNode
  getNextCursor: (data: Data) => string|undefined
  merge: (prev: Partial<Data>, next: Data) => Partial<Data>
  cursorProp?: string
  variables?: Variables
  data?: Data
}

M: Mandatory, O: Optional

• [M] query - GraphQL query to fetch after next cursor, created via graphql-tag.
• [M] variables - GraphQL query variables. It will be use it recursively
• [M] data - If you start from legacy data(from other query), use as initial data.
• [O] cursorProp - Merge next cursor property name with variables, fallthrough recursively, if next fetch is required. (default: 'cursor').
• [O] getNextCursor - If you need more fetching data, return next cursor. It will be called every time data is fetched.
• [O] merge - Data accumulator.

QueryUntil.defaultProps = {
  cursorProp: 'cursor',
  variables: {
    [this.cursorProp]: null,
  },
  data: {}
}

If you specified cursorProp, you MUST set variables to include cursor property you specified, eg, {[cursorProps]: null}

example

Use github GraphQL API

import * as React from 'react'
import {QueryUntil} from 'graphql-query-until'
 
const User: React.SFC<{user: any}> = /* implement some component */
 
export const QLGithubUser: React.SFC = () =>
  <QueryUntil
    query={query}
    getNextCursor={data => {
      const {hasNextPage, endCursor} = data.user.repositories.pageInfo
      
      if (hasNextPage) {
        return endCursor
      }
    }}
    merge={(prev, data) => ({
      ...prev,
      user: {
        ...prev.user,
        repositories: {
          ...prev.user.repositories,
          nodes   : prev.user.repositories.nodes.concat(data.user.repositories.nodes),
          pageInfo: data.user.repositories.pageInfo
        }
      }})}
  >
    {({data, loading, fetchMore}) => (loading || !data) ? 'Loading...' : <User {...data}/> }
  </QueryUntil>
