Parses GraphQL queries and schemas.
*This library is merely a parser/visitor*. Any sort of actual GraphQL API functionality must be implemented by you,
or by a third-party package.
[Angel framework](https://angel-dart.github.io)
users should consider
[`package:angel_graphql`](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/angel_graphql)
as a dead-simple way to add GraphQL functionality to their servers.
# Installation
Add `graphql_parser` as a dependency in your `pubspec.yaml` file:
```yaml
dependencies:
graphql_parser: ^1.0.0
```
# Usage
The AST featured in this library was originally directly based off this ANTLR4 grammar created by Joseph T. McBride:
https://github.com/antlr/grammars-v4/blob/master/graphql/GraphQL.g4
It has since been updated to reflect upon the grammar in the official GraphQL
specification (
[June 2018](https://facebook.github.io/graphql/June2018/)).
```dart
import 'package:graphql_parser/graphql_parser.dart';
doSomething(String text) {
var tokens = scan(text);
var parser = new Parser(tokens);
if (parser.errors.isNotEmpty) {
// Handle errors...
}
// Parse the GraphQL document using recursive descent
var doc = parser.parseDocument();
// Do something with the parsed GraphQL document...
}
```
