# GraphQL

The GraphQL Pages Plugin creates a GraphQL server which can respond to `application/json` and `application/graphql` `POST` requests. It responds with [the GraphQL Playground ↗](https://github.com/graphql/graphql-playground) for `GET` requests.

## Installation

 npm  yarn  pnpm  bun 

```
npm i @cloudflare/pages-plugin-graphql
```

```
yarn add @cloudflare/pages-plugin-graphql
```

```
pnpm add @cloudflare/pages-plugin-graphql
```

```
bun add @cloudflare/pages-plugin-graphql
```

## Usage

TypeScript

```
import graphQLPlugin from "@cloudflare/pages-plugin-graphql";import {  graphql,  GraphQLSchema,  GraphQLObjectType,  GraphQLString,} from "graphql";
const schema = new GraphQLSchema({  query: new GraphQLObjectType({    name: "RootQueryType",    fields: {      hello: {        type: GraphQLString,        resolve() {          return "Hello, world!";        },      },    },  }),});
export const onRequest: PagesFunction = graphQLPlugin({  schema,  graphql,});
```

This Plugin only exposes a single route, so wherever it is mounted is wherever it will be available. In the above example, because it is mounted in `functions/graphql.ts`, the server will be available on `/graphql` of your Pages project.
