Intro

What is fastGQL?

fastGQL is a Go library that extends gqlgen to create a blazing-fast GraphQL server that gives you instant, realtime GraphQL APIs over Postgres.

  • fastgql is based on a Schema first approach — You get to Define your API using the GraphQL Schema Definition Language.
  • fastgql prioritizes extendability — You can modify resolvers, add your own custom operators and even create your own database query builder.
  • fastgql enables codegen — We generate even more of the boring CRUD bits, so you can focus on building your app even faster!

Getting Started

  • To install fastgql run the command go get github.com/roneli/fastgql in your project directory.\

  • You could initialize a new project using the recommended folder structure by running this command go run github.com/roneli/fastgql init.

You could find a more comprehensive guide on gqlgen to help you get started here. We also have a couple of examples that show how fastgql generates the full API seamlessly.

Contributing

Feel free to open Pull-Request for small fixes and changes. For bigger changes and new builders please open an issue first to prevent double work and discuss relevant stuff.

Roadmap 🚧

  • Integration testing, and generation testing
  • configurable database connections, augmenters and better schema control
