Integrate prisma graphql queries with ariadne


I have written some graphql schema and deployed it using prisma. Prisma generated some .graphql file with type Query, type Mutation, type Subscription. There is a prisma server running from docker which is contacting MySQL database. Now I would like to write some API functions using Ariadne and contact the database using Prisma queries. How can I achieve this?

GraphQL Schema provided to prisma

datamodel.prisma

type User {
  id: ID! @id 
  name: String!
}

Example of generated graphql file

prisma.graphql

type Query {
  user(where: UserWhereUniqueInput!): User
  users(where: UserWhereInput, orderBy: UserOrderByInput, skip: Int, after: String, before: String, first: Int, last: Int): [User]!
  usersConnection(where: UserWhereInput, orderBy: UserOrderByInput, skip: Int, after: String, before: String, first: Int, last: Int): UserConnection!
  node(id: ID!): Node
}

Code snippet of API using ariadne trying to connect to database

I am trying to execute users query i.e., getting all users from the database.

api.py

from ariadne import gql, load_schema_from_path, QueryType, make_executable_schema
from ariadne.asgi import GraphQL

schema_files_path = "/root/manisha/prisma/generated/prisma.graphql"
schema = load_schema_from_path(schema_files_path)

query = QueryType()

@query.field("users")
def resolve_users(_, info):
    ...


schema = make_executable_schema(schema, query)
app = GraphQL(schema, debug=True)

Running the server using uvicorn uvicorn api:app --reload --port 7000

I am able to get all the users in prisma playground using below query.

{
  users{
    name
    id

  }
}

Trying the same with ariadne resolve_users resolver is not working.

Giving me below error:

ERROR: Expected Iterable, but did not find one for field Query.users.

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Solution

  • As prisma doesn't support client for python yet, below code helps as a workaround for contacting prisma server from Ariadne.

    from ariadne import gql, load_schema_from_path, QueryType, make_executable_schema 
    from ariadne.asgi import GraphQL 
    
    import requests 
    
    prisma_url = "your-prisma-endpoint" 
    schema_files_path = "/root/manisha/prisma/generated/prisma.graphql" 
    schema = load_schema_from_path(schema_files_path) 
    
    query = QueryType() 
    
    
    def make_call_to_prisma(info): 
        data = info.context["request"]._body 
        resp = requests.post( 
            url=prisma_url, headers={"content-type": "application/json"}, data=data 
        ) 
        return resp 
    
    
    @query.field("users") 
    def resolve_users(_, info, where=None): 
        result = make_call_to_prisma(info) 
        print(result.json()) 
        return result.json()["data"]["users"] 
    
    
    schema = make_executable_schema(schema, query) 
    app = GraphQL(schema, debug=True)
