yml_to_graphql

Convert a static YML-file-based DB to GraphQL compatible DB like dgraph.

Usage

1. Create your YML-file-based DB by creating

   • A schema definition file schema.graphql
   • A directory containing a sub-directory for each type in your schema and YML files defining instances of those types.

   Example: https://github.com/stackdb-info/db

2. Define ENV variables and run the converter

   • SCHEMA_PATH : Path to your schema file
   • YML_DB_PATH : Path to the root of directory containing type directories
   • GRAPHQL_SERVER : DGraph entrypoint

   See package.json for start command example.

3. Run node populate.js. You're done !
