This repository contains an example React app using the Strise Process API for streaming updates about companies. Most of the code can be used in a server application as well.
A deployed version of the app can be found here.
The Strise Process API adheres to the graphql-transport-ws protocol and clients must follow this specification. The graphql-ws
NPM package supports this out of the box.
The client authenticates against the API using a JSON Web Token. The token must be included in the payload of the initial message.
{
"type": "connection_init",
"payload": {
"Authorization": "Bearer token"
}
}
When using Apollo this the token is provided as in the example src/utils/client.tsx
.
The API documentation can be viewed in the hosted GraphQL Playground, or with any other GraphQL client / documentation explorer.
One advantage of using a strongly typed API is that it is possible to generate custom types based on the current integration.
In this example graphql-codegen
is used to generate TypeScript types based on the GraphQL operations specified in the files in src/graphql
. The configuration can be found in codegen.yml
.
graphql-codegen
also has plugins for generating types in other languases such as Java or C#. Alternative codegen tools might also support other languages.
