[Question] Is "application/graphql" Content Type supported by graphql-java-servlet?

[subeeshcbabu-zz]

GraphQL doc mentions application/graphql as one of the options to send POST requests to the server - http://graphql.org/learn/serving-over-http/#post-request

If the "application/graphql" Content-Type header is present, treat the HTTP POST body contents as the GraphQL query string.

This helps the client to send the query exactly like the GraphIQL tool.

I was wondering if this is something graphql-java-servlet supports right now or planning to support in the future?

I did try to send the request with this ContentTyope header and the Request raw body in the query format, however it did nor work.

Got the following error:

com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unrecognized token 'query': was expecting ('true', 'false' or 'null')
 at [Source: (BufferedInputStream); line: 1, column: 7]

Yes this would be helpful for us too. There is a node.js implementation of an http servlet for GraphQL that has this feature at https://github.com/graphql/express-graphql
