chocolate-shop

GraphQL backend for an imaginary chocolate shop implemented in Rust, rocket, async-graphql and sqlx. For detailed installation guide please refer to the bootstrap project. The only difference is that I used SQLx CLI instead of golang tool mentioned there.

Project-specific implementation details

Schema

GraphQL schema is quite simple:

enum ChocolateType {
    Bitter, White, Milk
}

type Product {
    id: Int!
    name: String!
    description: String!
    price: Int!
    chocolateType: ChocolateType!
    fillings: [String]
    images: [String]!
}

Requests include querying, updating a price of a product and deleting it.

Using SQLx CLI to perform migrations

To facilitate the migrations flow I recommend using the SQLx CLI. It allows you to add and run migrations in a clean fashion. Please refer to migrations folder to see some examples.

Running the service

The current configuration in Rocket.toml has been setup to run the micro-service on port 7600. After you have cargo build and cargo run, you can play with the GraphQL at localhost:7600
