GraphQL Queries

GraphQL queries can be done using graphQLSelector() and graphQLSelectorFamily(). (The underlying support is provided via atom effects). But first, make sure to setup your Relay environment.

Simple GraphQL Query

graphQLSelector() can be used to create a selector which is synced with a GraphQL query. This selector helps GraphQL queries and the Recoil data-flow graph stay in sync. It can depend on upstream Recoil atoms/selectors to determine the variables to use for the GraphQL query or transform the results. Any mutations, local updates, deferred data, or live queries to the Relay GraphQL state will also automatically sync with the selector and cause it to update. This allows you to treat the server as the source of truth with the selector as a local cache.

const userNameQuery = graphQLSelector({
key: 'UserName',
environment: myEnvironmentKey,
query: graphql`
query UserNameQuery($id: ID!) {
user(id: $id) {
name
}
}
`,
variables: ({get}) => ({id: get(currentIDAtom)}),
mapResponse: data => data.user?.name,
});
function MyComponent() {
const seenCount = useRecoilValue(seenCountQuery);
return <span>{seenCount}</span>;
}

In addition to using other upstream atoms/selectors to compute the GraphQL query variables, the graphQLSelector() can also be used by other downstream selectors to provide derived state.

const pictureForUserState = selector({
key: 'PictureForUser',
get: async ({get}) => {
const username = get(userNameQuery);
const picture = await fetch(urlForUserNamePicture(username));
return picture;
},
});

GraphQL Query with Parameters

graphQLSelectorFamily() allows you to use parameters in addition to other Recoil state for computing query variables. Parameters can be determined based on a component's props, React state, used in another Recoil selector, etc.

const userQuery = graphQLSelectorFamily({
key: 'UserQuery',
environment: myEnvironmentKey,
query: graphql`
query UserQuery($id: ID!, $clientID: ClientID!) {
user(id: $id, client_id: $clientID) {
name
address
}
}
`,
variables: id => ({get}) => ({id, clientID: get(clientIDAtom}),
mapResponse: data => data.user,
});
function MyComponent(props) {
const user = useRecoilValue(userQuery(props.userID));

return (
<div>
<h1>{user.name}</h1>
</div>
);
}

GraphQL Fragments

GraphQL queries can also include GraphQL fragments through the use of the @inline directive and readInlineData().

const userNameFragment = graphql`
fragment UserNameFragment on User @inline {
name
}
`;
import {readInlineData} from 'relay-runtime';

const userNameQuery = graphQLSelectorFamily({
key: 'UserNameQuery',
environment: myEnvironmentKey,
query: graphql`
query UserNameQuery($id: ID!) {
user(id: $id) {
...UserNameFragment
}
}
`,
variables: id => ({id}),
mapResponse: response => {
const userFragment = readInlineData(userNameFragment, response.user);
return userFragment?.name;
},
})

Pre-fetch GraphQL

GraphQL queries can also be pre-fetched using the pre-fetching pattern:

function CurrentUserInfo() {
const currentUserID = useRecoilValue(currentUserIDState);
const userInfo = useRecoilValue(userInfoQuery(currentUserID));

const changeUser = useRecoilCallback(({snapshot, set}) => userID => {
// pre-fetch user info
snapshot.getLoadable(userInfoQuery(userID));

// change current user to start new render
set(currentUserIDState, userID);
});

return (
<div>
<h1>{userInfo.name}</h1>
<ul>
{userInfo.friends.map(friend =>
<li key={friend.id} onClick={() => changeUser(friend.id)}>
{friend.name}
</li>
)}
</ul>
</div>
);
}

Preloaded GraphQL

If you are using EntryPoints, then you can preload queries in parallel with loading most of the JS for your page.

First, make sure you register an EnvironmentKey for your preloaded queries at your applications root:

export const preloadedEnvironmentKey = new EnvironmentKey('preloaded');

export function AppRoot() {
const preloadedEnvironment = useRelayEnvironment();
return (
<RecoilRoot>
<RecoilRelayEnvironment
environmentKey={preloadedEnvironmentKey}
environment={preloadedEnvironment}>
{/* My App */}
</RecoilRelayEnvironment>
</RecoilRoot>
)
}

Then, direct your queries to use this preloadedEnvironmentKey and add a @preloadable decorator to the GraphQL:

export const userQuery = graphQLSelector({
key: 'UserQuery',
environmentKey: preloadedEnvironmentKey,
query: graphql`
query UserQuery($id: ID!) @preloadable {
user(id: $id) {
name
}
}
`,
variables: ({get}) => ({id: get(currentIDAtom)}),
mapResponse: data => data?.user,
});

Finally, add this query to the preloaded queries in your *.entrypoint.js file:

const MyEntryPoint = {
getPreloadProps: params => ({
queries: {
userQuery: {
parameters: require('UserQuery$Parameters'),
variables: {id: params.id},
},
}),
root: JSResource('m#MyApp.react'),
};
