Readme
This is the Express integration of Apollo Server. Apollo Server is a community-maintained open-source GraphQL server that works with many Node.js HTTP server frameworks. Read the docs. Read the CHANGELOG.
A full example of how to use apollo-server-express
can be found in the docs.
Before Apollo Server 3, we officially supported using this package with connect
as well. connect
is an older framework that express
evolved from. For now, we believe that this package is still compatible with connect
and we even run tests against connect
, but we may choose to break this compatibility at some point without a major version bump. If you rely on the ability to use Apollo Server with connect
, you may wish to make your own integration.
Principles
GraphQL Server is built with the following principles in mind:
- By the community, for the community: GraphQL Server's development is driven by the needs of developers
- Simplicity: by keeping things simple, GraphQL Server is easier to use, easier to contribute to, and more secure
- Performance: GraphQL Server is well-tested and production-ready - no modifications needed
Anyone is welcome to contribute to GraphQL Server, just read CONTRIBUTING.md, take a look at the roadmap and make your first PR!
