I have an Apollo GraphQL client running in react native. It connects to a lambda instance running graphQL. My problem is that I am trying to send a mutate request to the server (have not setup queries yet), and the server is getting the following and declaring a syntax error(Expected Name, found String \"operationName\"
).
When I was testing the graphQL server, the requests looked like the ones specified below. Is Apollo Client not formatting the requests properly (if so why not) or is it functioning as intended?
Body sent from Apollo client to graphQL lambda:
{
"operationName": "createUser",
"variables": {
"firstName": "Jane",
"lastName": "Doe",
"email": "[email protected]",
"username": "jane_doe.com",
"provider": "none"
"jwt": "none"
},
"query": "mutation createUser($firstName: String!, $lastName: String!, $email: String!, $username: String!, $provider: String, $jwt: String!) {
createUser(firstName: $firstName, lastName: $lastName, email: $email, username: $username, provider: $provider, jwt: $jwt) {
createdAt
__typename
}
}"}
A Normal request that works from Postman.
mutation {
createUser(firstName: "Jane", lastName: "Doe", email: "[email protected]", username: "jane_doe.com", jwt: "none", provider: "none") {
firstName
}
}
Code from react-native app
// The mutation in the render function
<Mutation mutation={createUserMutation}>
{(createUser, error) => {
console.log('error-----------', error);
// If there is an error throw the error
if (error) {
console.log('error----------', error);
}
if (createUser) {
// If the response has data load the response data via the createPlayer property.
return (
<LoginButton
onPress={() => {
this.signIn(createUser);
}}
/>
);
}
// By default it is loading the result so just return loading...
return <Text>Loading...</Text>;
}}
</Mutation>
// The signin function called when the user presses the login button
async signIn(createUser) {
...
try {
Auth.signIn(un, password)
.then(data => {
...
this.createUserFunc(
createUser,
'Jane',
'Doe',
'[email protected]',
'jane_doe.com',
'none',
'none'
);
}
...
}
// The create user function called from the signin function
createUserFunc = (func, firstName, lastName, email, username, provider, jwt) => {
const newUser = {
firstName,
lastName,
email,
username,
provider,
jwt,
};
func({variables: newUser});
};
// The gql syntax mutation
const createUserMutation = gql`
mutation createUser(
$firstName: String!
$lastName: String!
$email: String!
$username: String!
$provider: String
$jwt: String!
) {
createUser(
firstName: $firstName
lastName: $lastName
email: $email
username: $username
provider: $provider
jwt: $jwt
) {
createdAt
}
}
