@EricSimons first step done!
https://github.com/thebergamo/realworld-graphql

I think by the end of the week, I can update the repo with a simple boilerplate attending the basic specs for the APIs

[EricSimons]

Awesome! I just updated the issue status & created this logo for your repo's readme:

[thebergamo]

@EricSimons maybe will be greater if you use both graphql and apollo logos

[EricSimons]

Done :)

[thebergamo]

@EricSimons a first version is released! https://github.com/thebergamo/realworld-graphql

At this time, just have user and profile endpoint. And test will be added soon.

[EricSimons]

@thebergamo woah! This is awesome!! I'm gonna clone and play around with this over the weekend 😃 Does the Relay FE integrate with this yet? Seriously can't wait to test drive fullstack graphql!

[thebergamo]

I'm not sure, need to talk with Steve about the integration!

I will try to finish the spec until Monday. Not promise, but will try!

Is anyone still working on this? the fork hasn't been touched in 2 years. I'd like to help out with this.

[anishkny]

Go for it @xyclos! Feel free to build on https://github.com/thebergamo/realworld-graphql

[thebergamo]

Holy lord! 2y already :(

hey, @thebergamo @anishkny I was having a look at the existing repo and I have some questions:

why is this wrapping the restful api? wouldn't a more complete example implement the db connection, orm and the business logic for querying the data like the node express example does?

also, it seems the integration with hapi may be unnecessary now since apollo-server no longer requires a separate http server. I think hapi maybe over complicating things a bit. (removing hapi and implementing the db stuff has me leaning toward starting a new repo from scratch)

has any work been done for automatically testing that this correctly implements the spec? should the postman script be extended? should a new one be created specifically for gql implementations?

finally, can one of you help me to understand what is remaining todo with the existing repo?

thanks :)
