⚠️
This is the documentation for the old GraphQL Yoga version 3. We recommend upgrading to the latest GraphQL Yoga version 5.
Migrate to GraphQL Yoga v5
Migrate to GraphQL Yoga v5
Integration with Hapi
Hapi allows you to build powerful, scalable applications, with minimal overhead and full out-of-the-box functionality - your code, your way.
It continues to be the proven choice for enterprise-grade backend needs.
Installation
Terminal
yarn add @hapi/hapi
yarn add graphql
yarn add graphql-yoga
Example
import Hapi from '@hapi/hapi'
import http from 'node:http'
import { Readable } from 'node:stream'
import { createYoga, createSchema } from 'graphql-yoga'
import { schema } from './my-graphql-schema'
interface ServerContext {
req: Hapi.Request
h: Hapi.ResponseToolkit
}
const yoga = createYoga<ServerContext>({ schema })
const server = Hapi.server({ port: 4000 })
server.route({
method: '*',
path: yoga.graphqlEndpoint,
options: {
payload: {
// let yoga handle the parsing
output: 'stream'
}
},
handler: async (req, h) => {
const { status, headers, body } = await yoga.handleNodeRequest(
// will be an incoming message because the payload output option is stream
req.payload as http.IncomingMessage,
{ req, h }
)
const res = h.response().code(status)
for (const [key, val] of headers) {
res.header(key, val)
}
return Readable.from(body, {
// stream cannot be in object mode
objectMode: false
})
}
})
server.start()
The GraphQL Yoga server should now be available at http://localhost:4000/graphql.
