flask-graphql-example

Example of small GraphQL app with Flask + Python3/PyPy3 + MongoDb

Quick start with docker

docker-compose build
docker-compose up

Optionally populate database

docker-compose run web pypy3 manage.py init

And then open http://localhost:5000/ui

Development workflow

Create a virtual environment with Python3 or PyPy3

Make sure you have running MongoDb instance either on localhost or

export DB_PORT_27017_TCP_ADDR='ip address'

Likewise you can use containerized Mongo but you will need to setup env variables as well

docker-compose build
docker-compose up db

Then you can install deps and run the python app

make req
python api.py

Miscellaneous

Auto format your code

make format

Nosetests with reload

make watch
