GraphQL Code Generator is a tool that generates code out of your GraphQL schema. Whether you are
developing a frontend or backend, you can utilize GraphQL Code Generator to generate output from
your GraphQL Schema and GraphQL Documents (query/mutation/subscription/fragment).
By analyzing the schema and documents and parsing it, GraphQL Code Generator can output code at a
wide variety of formats, based on pre-defined templates or based on custom user-defined ones.
Regardless of the language that you're using, GraphQL Code Generator has you covered.
GraphQL Code Generator lets you choose the output that you need, based on plugins, which are very
flexible and customizable. You can also write your plugins to generate custom outputs that match
your needs.
You can try this tool live on your browser and see some useful examples. Check out
GraphQL Code Generator Live Examples.
We currently support and maintain these plugins
(TypeScript, Flow, React, Angular, MongoDB, Stencil, Reason, and some more), and there is an active
community that writes and maintains custom plugins.
Quick Start
You can find the complete instructions in
GraphQL Code Generator website.
Start by installing the basic deps of GraphQL Codegen:
bashpnpm add graphql pnpm add -D @graphql-codegen/cli
GraphQL Code Generator lets you setup everything by simply running the following command:
bashpnpm graphql-codegen init
Question by question, it will guide you through the whole process of setting up a schema, selecting
plugins, picking a destination of a generated file, and a lot more.
If you wish to
manually setup codegen, follow these instructions.
