Currently the consumption of HTTP REST APIs dominate the client-side world,
GraphQL aims to change this.
This transition can be time-consuming - this is where graffiti comes into the picture.
We don't want to rewrite our application - no one wants that.
graffiti provides an Express middleware, a Hapi plugin and a
Koa middleware to convert your existing models into a GraphQL schema and exposes it over HTTP.
What is GraphQL?
GraphQL is a query language created by Facebook in 2012 which provides a common interface between the client and the server for data fetching and manipulations.
The client asks for various data from the GraphQL server via queries. The response format is described in the query and defined by the client instead of the server: they are called client‐specified queries.
provide a schema (returned by an adapters getSchema method or your own GraphQLSchema instance)
the GraphQL endpoint is available on /graphql
Express
