GraphQL-core

GraphQL for Python

Project Status

This library is a port of graphql-js to Python.

We are currently targeting feature parity with v0.4.18 of the reference implementation, and are currently on v0.4.17.

Please see issues for the progress.

Getting Started

An overview of the GraphQL language is available in the README for the Specification for GraphQL. The overview describes a simple set of GraphQL examples that exist as tests in this repository. A good way to get started is to walk through that README and the corresponding tests in parallel.

Using graphql-core

Install from pip:

pip install graphql-core

Supported Python Versions

graphql-core supports the following Python versions:

• 2.7.x
• 3.3.x
• 3.4.x
• 3.5.0
• pypy-2.6.1

Built-in Concurrency Support

Support for 3.5.0's asyncio module for concurrent execution is available via an executor middleware at graphql.core.execution.middlewares.asyncio.AsyncioExecutionMiddleware.

Additionally, support for gevent is available via graphql.core.execution.middlewares.gevent.GeventExecutionMiddleware.

Otherwise, by default, the executor will use execute with no concurrency.
