Note: The primary maintainer @acao is on hiatus until December 2020 Looking for the GraphiQL Docs?: This is the root of the monorepo! The full GraphiQL docs are located at
packages/graphiql
GraphiQL is the reference implementation of this monorepo, GraphQL IDE, an official project under the GraphQL Foundation. The code uses the permissive MIT license.
Whether you want a simple GraphiQL IDE instance for your server, or a more advanced web or desktop GraphQL IDE experience for your framework or plugin, or you want to build an IDE extension or plugin, you've come to the right place!
The purpose of this monorepo is to give the GraphQL Community:
- a to-specification official language service (see: API Docs)
- a comprehensive LSP server and CLI service for use with IDEs
- a codemirror mode
- a monaco mode (in the works)
- an example of how to use this ecosystem with GraphiQL.
- examples of how to implement or extend GraphiQL.
graphiql@1.0.x and ecosystem are organized as below. Any further changes to graphiql@1.0.x are made against 1.0.0 branch
As we re-write for graphiql@2.x ecosystem, this monorepo will contain an sdk and plugins.
Breaking Changes & Improvements: several interfaces are being dropped for new ones are arriving for GraphiQL 1.0.0! Read more in this issue
/ˈɡrafək(ə)l/ A graphical interactive in-browser GraphQL IDE. Try the live demo. We also have a demo using our latest netlify build for the main branch.
The GraphiQL IDE, implemented in React, currently using GraphQL mode for CodeMirror & GraphQL Language Service.
Learn more about GraphiQL in packages/graphiql/README.md
The GraphiQL Readme explains some of the ways to implement GraphiQL, and we also have the examples directory as well!
Provides monaco editor with a powerful, schema-driven graphql language mode.
See the webpack example for a plain javascript demo using github API
Provides CodeMirror with a parser mode for GraphQL along with a live linter and typeahead hinter powered by your GraphQL Schema
Provides a command-line interface for running GraphQL Language Service Server for various IDEs.
An almost fully LSP compliant server process backing the GraphQL Language Service.
Runtime agnostic Language Service used by GraphQL mode for CodeMirror and GraphQL Language Service Server
An online immutable parser for GraphQL, designed to be used as part of syntax-highlighting and code intelligence tools such as for the GraphQL Language Service and codemirror-graphql.
Flow and Typescript type definitions for the GraphQL Language Service.
Utilities to support the GraphQL Language Service.
Many of these packages need to work in multiple environments.
By default, all typescript packages target es6.
graphql-language-service-server and graphql-language-service-cli are made for the node runtime, so they target es2017
codemirror-graphql and the graphiql browser bundle use the .browserslistrc, which targets modern browsers to keep bundle size small and keep the language services performant where async/await is used, and especially to avoid the requirement of rengenerator-runtime or special babel configuration.

Maintainers of this repository regulary review PRs and issues and help advance the GraphiQL roadmap
Originally this was three seperate repositories
- @leebyron - original author of all libraries
- @asiandrummer - original creator of GraphiQL
- @wincent - early co-author and maintainer
- @lostplan - maintained the language service ecosystem until about 2017
- @IvanGoncharov -
The door is open for proposals for the new GraphiQL Plugin API, and other ideas on how to make the rest of the IDE ecosystem more performant, scaleable, interoperable and extensible.
Feel free to open a PR to create a document in the /proposals/ directory.
Eventually we hope to move these to a repo that serves this purpose.
