Warning

This is the documentation for the old GraphQL Yoga v2.
We recommend upgrading to the latest GraphQL Yoga v5. Migrate to GraphQL Yoga v5.

Integration with Express

Express  is the most popular web framework for Node.js. It is a minimalist framework that provides a robust set of features to handle HTTP on Node.js applications. You can easily integrate GraphQL Yoga into your Express application with a few lines of code.

Installation

Terminal
yarn add @graphql-yoga/node express graphql

Example

import express from 'express'
import { createServer } from '@graphql-yoga/node'
 
const app = express()
 
const graphQLServer = createServer()
 
// Bind GraphQL Yoga to `/graphql` endpoint
app.use('/graphql', graphQLServer)
 
app.listen(4000, () => {
  console.log('Running a GraphQL API server at http://localhost:4000/graphql')
})
