GraphQL Federation for PHP
==========================

[](#graphql-federation-for-php)

Utility for creating GraphQL microservices, which can be combined into a single endpoint through tools like Apollo Gateway.

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/0be6b3cafa6cde3279282957dd79671fd17ae4358f9bb7b26f3eece3547927bc/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f70617363616c646576696e6b2f7068702d6772617068716c2d66656465726174696f6e2e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/pascaldevink/php-graphql-federation)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Use the package manager [composer](https://getcomposer.org) to install graphql-federation.

```
composer require pascaldevink/graphql-federation
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Assuming you already have an existing GraphQL implementation using [webonyx/graphql-php](https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php), these commands add federation:

```
# First, build your existing schema
$existingSchema = BuildSchema::build(file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/schema.graphqls'));

# Then, extend it with Federation
$federation = new \PascalDeVink\GraphQLFederation\Federation();
$schema = $federation->extendSchema($existingSchema);

# Build your root value resolver
$rootValue = include __DIR__ . '/rootvalue.php';

# And extend it with Federation resolvers
$rootValue = $federation->addResolversToRootValue($rootValue);

# Finally, execute the query
GraphQL::executeQuery($schema, $query, $rootValue, null, $variableValues);
```

See [the example of webonyx/graphql-php](https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php/tree/master/examples/02-shorthand)for the rest of the code to make it work.
