Package Exports
- apollo-upload-client
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (apollo-upload-client) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Enhances Apollo for intuitive file uploads via GraphQL mutations or queries. Use with Apollo upload server.
- > 2% market share browsers and React Native supported.
- MIT license.
Setup
Install with npm:
npm install apollo-upload-clientReact Native installs packages without their dev dependencies and unconventionally Babel is run over node_modules. Babel errors when it tries to respect config found in this package with presets and plugins absent. To overcome this install these dev dependencies (at versions matching package.json):
npm install --save-dev babel-preset-env babel-preset-stage-0 babel-plugin-transform-runtimeSetup Apollo client with a special network interface:
import ApolloClient from 'apollo-client'
import { createNetworkInterface } from 'apollo-upload-client'
const client = new ApolloClient({
networkInterface: createNetworkInterface({
uri: '/graphql'
})
})Alternatively enable query batching:
import ApolloClient from 'apollo-client'
import { createBatchNetworkInterface } from 'apollo-upload-client'
const client = new ApolloClient({
networkInterface: createBatchNetworkInterface({
uri: '/graphql',
batchInterval: 10
})
})Also setup Apollo upload server.
Usage
Once setup, you will be able to use File objects, FileList objects, or File arrays within query or mutation input variables.
For React Native, any object with the properties name, type and uri within variables will be treated as a file.
The files upload to a temp directory; the paths and metadata will be available under the variable name in the resolver. See the server usage.
Single file
See server usage for this example.
import React from 'react'
import { graphql, gql } from 'react-apollo'
export default graphql(gql`
mutation updateUserAvatar($userId: String!, $avatar: File!) {
updateUserAvatar(userId: $userId, avatar: $avatar) {
id
}
}
`)(({ userId, mutate }) => {
const handleChange = ({ target }) => {
if (target.validity.valid) {
mutate({
variables: {
userId,
avatar: target.files[0]
}
}).then(({ data }) => console.log('Mutation response:', data))
}
}
return (
<input
type="file"
accept={'image/jpeg,image/png'}
required
onChange={handleChange}
/>
)
})Multiple files
See server usage for this example.
import React from 'react'
import { graphql, gql } from 'react-apollo'
export default graphql(gql`
mutation updateGallery($galleryId: String!, $images: [File!]!) {
updateGallery(galleryId: $galleryId, images: $images) {
id
}
}
`)(({ galleryId, mutate }) => {
const handleChange = ({ target }) => {
if (target.validity.valid) {
mutate({
variables: {
galleryId,
images: target.files
}
}).then(({ data }) => console.log('Mutation response:', data))
}
}
return (
<input
type="file"
accept={'image/jpeg,image/png'}
multiple
required
onChange={handleChange}
/>
)
