Fully-featured GraphQL Server with focus on easy setup, performance & great developer experience

Docs

npm i @graphql-yoga/node graphql

You will need to provide schema to Yoga, either by an existing executable schema, or by providing your type definitions and resolver map:

import { createServer } from '@graphql-yoga/node'

const server = createServer({
  schema: {
    typeDefs: /* GraphQL */ `
      type Query {
        hello: String
      }
    `,
    resolvers: {
      Query: {
        hello: () => 'Hello from Yoga!',
      },
    },
  },
})

server.start()

• Easiest way to run a GraphQL server: Sensible defaults & includes everything you need with minimal setup (we also export a platform/env-agnostic handler so you can build your own wrappers easily).
• Includes Subscriptions: Built-in support for GraphQL subscriptions using Server-Sent Events.
• Compatible: Works with all GraphQL clients (Apollo, Relay, Urql...) and fits seamless in your GraphQL workflow.
• WHATWG Fetch API: the core package depends on WHATWG Fetch API so it can run and deploy on any environment (Serverless, Workers, Deno, Node).
• Easily Extendable: New GraphQL-Yoga support all envelop plugins.

• GraphQL over HTTP spec compliant
• TypeScript
• File upload with GraphQL Multipart Request spec
• Realtime capabilities
• Accepts application/json, application/graphql+json, application/x-www-form-urlencoded, application/graphql and multipart/formdata content-types
• Supports ESM
• Runs everywhere: Can be deployed via now, up, AWS Lambda, Heroku etc.
