Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library
summary
Neo4j GraphQL Library generates a full CRUD GraphQL API from type defs so no resolvers are written, and for any request it emits a single database query that avoids the n plus one problem. Custom fields get annotated with the cypher graphql schema directive to run cipher and Graph Data Science like jaccard similarity for recommendations. Demo uses a news graph and queries such as 100 most recent articles, shows generated cipher logged, and deploys as a Node/Apollo API to the cloud.
