graphcool-webhook-invoker
Test driven development, what could go wrong? :rocket: :see_no_evil:
Manually invokes graphcool webhooks with existing data.
Useful for testing, but please use with care.
Usage
As command line tool
npm install -g graphcool-webhook-invoker
graphcool-webhook-invoker \
cj17fjzs741pu0113oub8rndw \ # The ID of your project
cj17fk4k8b1750141v5mpai88 \ # The node ID to call the hook for
CREATE \ # The type of trigger to call the hook for
eyJhbGciOiJub25lIiwidHlwIj... # Your JWT access token
As module
npm install --save graphcool-webhook-invoker
import invoke from 'graphql-webhook-invoker'
const projectId = 'cj17fjzs741pu0113oub8rndw' // The ID of your project
const nodeId = 'cj17fk4k8b1750141v5mpai88' // The node ID to call the hook for
const trigger = 'CREATE' // The type of trigger to call the hook for
const token = 'eyJhbGciOiJub25lIiwidHlwIj...' // Your JWT access token
invoke(projectId, nodeId, trigger, token)
.catch(error => console.log('Oh no: ', error))
.then(res =>
res.map(r =>
console.log('Invoked: ', r.webhook, r.data, r.response)))
This will example would call the CREATE
webhook for the node with id cj17fk4k8b1750141v5mpai88
of project cj17fjzs741pu0113oub8rndw
, as if it was called by graphcool .
Limitations
graphcool-webhook-invoker
is built upon undocumented APIs of graphcool. It might break without notice.
Also, this project uses a very hacky way of resolving fragments for the webhook payload. It will, besides other things, break as soon as there are unmatching curly braces ({
, }
) inside strings.
Why should I use this?
Architectures that tie many services together are easy to build with graphcool. These services are usually connected via webhooks. Webhooks which are coming from graphcool might be painful to debug, since fireing a webhook requires mutation of the corresponding data. This tool allows you to fire a webhook for a node without touching the corresponding data.
While you should never use graphcool-webhook-invoker
in production, it can be incredibly helpful when debugging webhooks.
