async-graphql a high-performance graphql server library that's fully specification compliant

Book • 中文文档 • Docs • GitHub repository • Cargo package

This crate uses #![forbid(unsafe_code)] to ensure everything is implemented in 100% safe Rust.

Static schema

use std::error::Error;

use async_graphql::{http::GraphiQLSource, EmptyMutation, EmptySubscription, Object, Schema};
use async_graphql_poem::*;
use poem::{listener::TcpListener, web::Html, *};

struct Query;

#[Object]
impl Query {
    async fn howdy(&self) -> &'static str {
        "partner"
    }
}

#[handler]
async fn graphiql() -> impl IntoResponse {
    Html(GraphiQLSource::build().finish())
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    // create the schema
    let schema = Schema::build(Query, EmptyMutation, EmptySubscription).finish();

    // start the http server
    let app = Route::new().at("/", get(graphiql).post(GraphQL::new(schema)));
    println!("GraphiQL: http://localhost:8000");
    Server::new(TcpListener::bind("0.0.0.0:8000"))
        .run(app)
        .await?;
    Ok(())
}

Dynamic schema

Requires the dynamic-schema feature to be enabled.

use std::error::Error;

use async_graphql::{dynamic::*, http::GraphiQLSource};
use async_graphql_poem::*;
use poem::{listener::TcpListener, web::Html, *};

#[handler]
async fn graphiql() -> impl IntoResponse {
    Html(GraphiQLSource::build().finish())
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    let query = Object::new("Query").field(Field::new(
        "howdy",
        TypeRef::named_nn(TypeRef::STRING),
        |_| FieldFuture::new(async { "partner" }),
    ));

    // create the schema
    let schema = Schema::build(query, None, None).register(query).finish()?;

    // start the http server
    let app = Route::new().at("/", get(graphiql).post(GraphQL::new(schema)));
    println!("GraphiQL: http://localhost:8000");
    Server::new(TcpListener::bind("0.0.0.0:8000"))
        .run(app)
        .await?;
    Ok(())
}

⚠️Security

I strongly recommend limiting the complexity and depth of queries in a production environment to avoid possible DDos attacks.

Note: Minimum supported Rust version: 1.83.0 or later

Examples

All examples are in the sub-repository, located in the examples directory.

git submodule update # update the examples repo
cd examples && cargo run --bin [name]

For more information, see the sub-repository README.md.

Integrations

Integrations are what glue async-graphql with your web server, here are provided ones, or you can build your own!

This crate offers the following features. Most are not activated by default, except the integrations of GraphiQL (graphiql) and GraphQL Playground (playground):

feature	enables
`apollo_tracing`	Enable the Apollo tracing extension.
`apollo_persisted_queries`	Enable the Apollo persisted queries extension.
`boxed-trait`	Enables `async-trait` for all traits.

Observability

One of the tools used to monitor your graphql server in production is Apollo Studio. Apollo Studio is a cloud platform that helps you build, monitor, validate, and secure your organization's data graph. Add the extension crate async_graphql_apollo_studio_extension to make this avaliable.

Who's using `async-graphql` in production?
