海外TECH	DEV Community	What is GraphQL?	https://dev.to/shrutikapoor08/what-is-graphql-hj5	What is GraphQL In simple terms it s like when you go to a pizza place and order a Make your own pizza you pick the base the sauce the cheese the toppings and when the pizza is done you get exactly what you asked for With REST its like you pick a pizza from the predefined menu items You may get the toppings you want but you may also get other toppings like tomatoes you didn t ask for and sometimes we will just have to manually pick the tomatoes out of it In technical terms a GraphQL is a query language a syntax for querying for data from any data source be it an API or database GraphQL is an alternative to REST APIs and provides a new way of asking for data GraphQL lets you specify what data fields you need and delivers exactly those fields GraphQL specification defines the set of rules for implementing a GraphQL API Important point to note is that GraphQL isn t a query language for your database Unlike SQL you don t have a query such as SELECT from users for your database Instead GraphQL syntax defines how to ask for data from your API the syntax of a GraphQL query looks like this query getUsers users firstname So the QL in GraphQL means a query language for your API not database A cool thing to note is that GraphQL can be used with any data source such as REST APIs amp database It can be plugged anywhere built in any language and can be fit on top of any database and tech stack which means that you can use GraphQL on top of REST APIs and still get the benefits of GraphQL without having to tear down existing REST based architecture You can use GraphQL in a Java app JavaScript app Python Django NextJSGraphQL fits on both client and server side layers You build a GraphQL API on the server side and then consume this GraphQL API on the client side by firing GraphQL requests queries mutations etc There are tools such as Apollo that provide full stack solutions to help build GraphQL API on the server and consume it on the client side REST vs GraphQL example Making an API requestLet s say that we want to fetch a user s name In a REST API we have an endpoint that we can use to make a GET request The endpoint may look like users id If we use a curl request to make a call and pass in id of a user it will look like this curl H Content Type application json https www example com api users Let s look at how GraphQL request will look The GET operation of REST is done by Query in GraphQL We don t have a separate endpoint for users in GraphQL Every request is sent to graphql endpoint In order to describe what data we are interested in we pass the relevant parameters to Query operation and describe which Query we are interested in A GraphQL API may support something like getUsers Query which is a query we can use to get users A curl request to a GraphQL API looks like curl X POST H Content Type application json data query user id name https www example com graphqlTry out sample GraphQL requests here REST vs GraphQL Implementing the APIIn REST world we will have resource implementations for each of our operations such as GET user id is mapped to getUser String id getUser defines what data is passed if this endpoint is called This resource implementation will also call any downstream operation if need be other APIs or fetch directly from the database In GraphQL when implementing a GraphQL API we need to first the define the schema of the API Schema is a complete description of what queries mutations and parameters are allowed A GET operation is done by Query in GraphQL We can specify what arguments a query accepts in a Schematype Query getUser id String What we return from this getUser query is defined by a function called resolvers Resolvers define what data should be returned when a field is called Every query is mapped to a resolver A resolver function can call any API or data sources Our resolver can be written like this getUser args const id args fetch from database API when a client fetches getUser query they will get back data like this data name Sample name GraphQL terminologyQuery Query is similar to GET in REST When we want to fetch information from a GraphQL API we use Query Mutation A mutation is used when we want to mutate the data on the server A mutation is similar to PUT POST DELETE PATCH in a REST API Schema Schema is a complete representation of what operations a GraphQL API supports Major differences between REST and GraphQLRESTGraphQLREST has multiple endpoints GraphQL has one endpoint graphqlREST APIs support PUT GET POST DELETE PATCHGraphQL supports Query Mutation SubscriptionREST endpoints are populated by resource implementationsGraphQL fields are populated by resolvers level status codes level status codesOften times roundtrips need to be done in order to fetch complete dataYou can fetch multiple fields therefore fetch all the data you need with one requesttShape of the data is determined by the serverShape of the data is determined by the client calling the API When to use GraphQL vs RESTWhen to use GraphQLWhen you have multiple downstream APIsWhen you have extraneous data coming from downstream APIsWhen you care about which fields are being used by which clients With the help of GraphQL you can have field level instrumentation When you care about ensuring that all clients have the most up to date version of your API With GraphQL since there is one endpoint all updates are given to everyone When you want to build a UI first API When you care about underfetching and overfetching When to use REST When you depend heavily on caching When you don t know a complete set of fields you may get from downstream APIs With GraphQL you need to know the schema upfront When you rely heavily on status codes of downstream APIs Everything in GraphQL is a so you will need to parse the response object or errors object Prereqs to learn GraphQLWhile I don t think there is necessarily any pre reqs it helps to know the following Fundamentals of API developmentREST APIsHTTP A language of choice for implementing GraphQL API JavaScript Go Java Python etc Resources to learn GraphQLGraphQL orghowtographqlGraphQL book by Eve PorcelloUdemy course by Stephen Grider TL DRIn plain words GraphQL is a syntax for asking for data The big difference between REST and GraphQL is that there is one endpoint only graphql and in addition to making the call to the API endpoint and passing desired parameters we also need to provide exactly what fields we want to access In technical terms GraphQL is a specification and provides a way for querying for data The specification specifies what should happen when data is requested and mutated GraphQL specifies a way to ask for data and delivers exactly the data that was requested Since it is a specification GraphQL APIs can be created in language JavaScript Java Go Python Other GraphQL resources I have published

海外TECH	DEV Community	Time traveling with Fluree	https://dev.to/fluree/time-traveling-with-fluree-30nj	Time traveling with Fluree IntroWhen you get down to it if you are building an app with Fluree as the backend it is simplest to think of Fluree as a database This can be a useful way to think about working with Fluree but by doing so there is a lot being left on the table The unique combination of technologies which make Fluree what it is enable some extremely powerful functionality and unlock ways of working with data which are either uncommon or simply not possible with other data stores Let s talk about what some of those are how to use them and what this type of functionality could enable in your Fluree backed application BackgroundIn addition to a graph database for querying data Fluree is built with an immutable ledger as the backbone which holds the dataset This part of Fluree is what enables some really interesting and particularly unique functionality Immutable ledger is one of those terms which I had to Google in order to understand when I started at Fluree so let s break that down a bit Fluree associates related data elements called subjects Each subject has an id which is used to correlate the attributes called predicates and the values of those predicates together to form the facts about that subject Fluree is based on an extended version of the WC standard for RDF which is where this notion of SPO Subject Predicate Object comes from You can think of it like a row in a db table with id being the unique identifier for the row predicates are the columns and the values are the fields Each field makes up a fact about the instance of data stored in that particular row in the db For example in a Dog table with a Breed column each row corresponds to a unique Dog who is described by the attributes and fields The same idea holds in Fluree An id groups the related predicates which point to values in order to make up the facts of that subject So the dog breed predicate would point at an object french bulldog for example At the point in time when that fact was written to the ledger that specific subject s breed was french bulldog Each of these facts are stored in an immutable data structure Immutable means that those data structures are not available to be modified or changed in any way Instead of simply changing a value or updating a row in the data Fluree will make a new true fact in the ledger and associate it with the appropriate subject If this is a value which is being modified then Fluree will make two new facts one where the old fact is false and the second a new true fact both of these facts are then associated with the subject and written to the ledger This is part of the extension to RDF Each flake contains a boolean which indicates whether it is true or has been falsified You can read more about this in the flakes page in the docs This brings us to what a ledger is You can think of a ledger as discrete units or blocks which contain the history of the data as it is transacted These blocks are made of groups of immutable facts which are sent to an instance of Fluree Each block is linked to the one which came before it so there is a chain of blocks from when the ledger was created to the current block In Fluree this chain is queryable which means once some data has been transacted to Fluree you have the history of every data element in that data set Time travelSo back to those powerful pieces of functionality I mentioned at the beginning There are two ways of querying the data which enable what we call time travel in the Fluree world There are block queries and history queries both unlock elements of Fluree which are only possible because of the immutable data structures and the ledger Block queries enable querying the data state at specific moments in time and history queries allow you to get an overview of all of the modifications to a particular subject WhyWe ll get into how each of these types of queries work but first why does this even matter One of the primary benefits to having this type of view into your data is the ability to correlate events with the data state at the time that event happened For example say you are tracking prices for flights and you want to see what effect the weather had on flight prices or which day of the week prices tended to be the cheapest The sky s the limit for these types of analytical queries You also may want to enable your users to see the state of some piece of data when it was updated I saw a comment on a LinkedIn post once and was pretty sure that the commenter worked for the company who s post he was commenting on but his current job title was recently updated so I couldn t tell where he worked when the comment was added only where he currently worked the current state of the data This type of functionality can be useful in a wide range of circumstances or situations Having a way to view not only the current state of the data table stakes for any database but a way to see the state of a piece of data at a specified time OR for a specified range of time can be extremely useful Fluree goes a step further though When you are querying some data a point in time you are also seeing all of the facts which were true at that time as well This includes all of the relationships which existed at the time This is something which is not possible in any other database or data store that I am aware of You are able to query not only the historical values of something in your data but also all of the context associated with that data as well That is huge Now think about how you would go about making something like this in your db of choice Building out a historical view of a table in a traditional database whether in a relational or NoSQL db is a large and expensive maintenance burden the size of your db will explode because of data duplication without significant optimization and querying these db tables or documents can become relatively complex specifically what happens to references Does the reference point to the current table or is there a way to manage the reference such that it points to the correct row in the historical table What happens when you want to do a join to with another table There isn t an expedient or simple way to do either of those things to my knowledge One or two other data stores enable historical views but are not able to pull in all of the context and maintain relationships as well Putting it all togetherBoth of these operations are exposed via an API within a Fluree db instance Simply passing a JSON to the block or history endpoint is all that is needed to query this type of data Let s get into how to use each of these queries I will be using the Fluree Query Language FlureeQL which is a JSON based way to query the backend Fluree also supports querying via GraphQL SPARQL SQL or calling these endpoints directly from Clojure but we ll use FlureeQL to illustrate this functionality If you want to read more about our query surfaces check out the query pages for more details Block QueriesThere are two ways to query a block in Fluree You can either issue a query against the block endpoint which returns the flakes in that particular block or range of blocks or you can add a block key to a basic query issued to the query endpoint This basic query method of querying can and probably will pull in facts which were transacted to the ledger before the specified block When you issue a regular query with a block key you are issuing a query as if the specified block were the current block Each of these types of query is beneficial and can be useful depending on how you need to view your data Let s start with a query issued to the block endpoint This type of query currently supports keys block number prettyPrint boolean prettyPrint is a boolean which if true prints the results in a pretty printed aka styled format for easier reading as well as separating the asserted and retracted flakes into their own arrays in order to make them easier to parse The block key is much more interesting It can take a number a string in the form of an ISO formatted date time or duration or an array which specifies a range of block for the query For example to query a specific block block You can query via a time stamp This will return the first block which was transacted before this timestamp In other words it will give you the facts which were true at that time block T Z You can also use an ISO formatted duration block PTM This will return the state of the data as of minutes ago If you would like to query a range of blocks you can pass an array containing the blocks you would like to see This range is inclusive meaning the data returned will include both blocks you put in the array block You can also pass an array with a single block which will specify a lower also inclusive block and return the facts from that block up to the current block Using the block endpoint will return an array of flakes each of which is a fact stored in Fluree at that block or range of blocks While this is useful it is probably more realistic that you would want to see a specific set of data using a normal query but have the results returned as if they had been issued at some point in the past This is also enabled in Fluree by issuing a query to the query endpoint which contains the block key value pair This key expects the value to be structured in the same way as the examples above with the value being one of a number a formatted string or an array of block numbers So the main difference is that this type of query will pull in data which is not limited to a specific block it returns data as if the query had been issued when that block was the current block For example if you had a Dog collection of subjects in your ledger you could issue this query to see all of the dogs which had been transacted and not deleted as of block select from Dog block To read more on querying blocks check out the docs pages for block queries and querying with the block key History QueriesThe way a history query is structured and issued is relatively similar to block queries but are fairly different in what results are returned As I mentioned above a history query returns all of the modifications to a subject I like to think of a block query showing the breadth of the data at a specific time and the history query as looking down the timeline of a specific piece of data For example if you had a customer in your dataset who has connections to other customers you could see the history of that customer s connections from when they first joined your application up to the current block If you wanted to see the connections that customer had at a specific block or over a range of blocks that is possible as is using the ISO date times or durations You can build a history query using FlureeQL in JSON the same way you would with a block query For example if you know the subject s id you can simply hit the history endpoint like this history This query will return an array of objects each object containing the block and t numbers for that block and an array of flakes for that subject Another option is to issue a history query with a block key in order to constrain the results of the query to a specific timeframe in your data That looks like this history block This query will return the flakes for this id up to block You can also use a block range or use the ISO formatted string similar to the block queries Using a flake format is another way you can issue a history query This means that you can use pieces of data to identify the subject you want to query This works via the subject predicate object structure of a flake You pass the elements you want to use to query in an array as the value of the history key in the query JSON The array needs to be passed as subject predicate object but you do not have to use all elements in the array for the query to resolve Please note that the order of these within the array is important and either a subject or a predicate is required For example if you want to query for the history of all subjects matching the predicate object pair dog breed french bulldog in your collection you could query the ledger like this history null dog breed french bulldog Another way this could be done is using either a subject id with a predicate or substitute a two tuple which uniquely identifies a subject for the id That would look like this history dog favFoods or with a two tuple history dog name Jacques dog favFoods Both of these queries will return the history of the predicate dog favFoods for the dog specified with either the subject id or the unique identifier of dog name Jacques used to identify the subject you want to inspect Similar to the block queries a history query can also accept a prettyPrint key value pair When true this will return the history of the subject or predicate as indicated but will separate out the retracted and asserted flakes per block into their own arrays That looks like this history prettyPrint true which will return something in this type of structure asserted id dog breed french bulldog retracted In the return JSON each block containing data which matches the query is its own labeled object containing a named array for asserted and retracted showAuth There is one other extremely powerful way to use history queries to audit the history of who transacted the data You can issue a showAuth boolean key value pair or an array of auth id or auth subject id s in order to filter the history query to specific auth record s transactions Because each transaction is signed by a private key which is associated cryptographically with the auth id every flake in Fluree contains a record of who issued that transaction This is the way to view that data It looks like this history showAuth true This will return an array of block objects each of which will contain a named array of auth which consists of the auth s subject id and the auth id of the individual man or machine which signed that block Which will look something like this block flakes dog true null cat true null ferret true null t auth TexTgpzpMkxJqnThrgwkUdpwzaXABX For more information on how Fluree stores and interacts with identity and authorization please take a look at the identity section in the docs Wrap it upSo that s how you can go about time traveling in Fluree There are powerful tools which come out of the box which enable you to do things like query as of a specific moment in time see how a subject evolved over time in your dataset or get all of the data which was transacted by a specific auth record You can read more

海外TECH	DEV Community	How to debug Node.js apps in Visual Studio Code	https://dev.to/logrocket/how-to-debug-node-js-apps-in-visual-studio-code-1ha5	How to debug Node js apps in Visual Studio CodeWritten by Ayooluwa Isaiah ️The Visual Studio Code editor has all the tools to debug Node js applications effectively Its built in debugger can debug any application that targets the Node js runtime even if the source code for the application is a language that transpiles to JavaScript such as TypeScript When beginning a debugging session you must inspect the call stack and any scoped variables in their current state You can also evaluate expressions in the editor and step through the code to drill into the problematic parts Setting up a project for Node js debugging is not particularly difficult and this tutorial will help you get it right on the first try PrerequisitesBefore beginning ensure the most recent versions of both Node js and Visual Studio Code are installed This tutorial uses v and respectively You also need a Node js project you can use your own or download this sample URL shortener application The instructions to set it up are in the project s README file Start a debugging session in Visual Studio CodeThe easiest way to start a debugging session in Visual Studio Code is to open a file in the editor click the Run View icon in the Activity Bar or press Ctrl Shift D on your keyboard followed by the Run and Debug button at the top left corner of the application The Visual Studio Code debugger will try to auto detect the debug environment for your project but if this fails you will be prompted to select the appropriate environment in this case select Node js The Node js legacy option refers to the old JavaScript debugger which is still available but not recommended After selecting an environment the project launches and the debugger attaches to the process You can see the output of your project in the DEBUG CONSOLE and the debug toolbar appears at the top of the screen to step through the code pause the script or end the session On the left hand side of the editor there are five panes titled VARIABLES WATCH CALL STACK LOADED SCRIPTS and BREAKPOINTS You also can create a launch configuration file for the project to configure and save debugging setup details that are infinitely reusable by anyone working on the project This configuration file is saved as launch json in the vscode folder at the root of the project Create the configuration file by clicking the create a launch json file link in the RUN AND DEBUG RUN view After selecting the environment for your project the launch json file should appear in the editor with the following contents vscode launch json version configurations type pwa node request launch name Launch URL Shortener skipFiles lt node internals gt program workspaceFolder src server js The name of the configuration is how it will be identified in the Configurations menu the program that will run is specified in the program field There are many options that can be set on each configuration such as the arguments to pass to the program environment variables and pre debugging tasks Read the documentation to find out which settings are relevant to your project Once you ve finished setting up the project configuration select and execute through the Configuration dropdown menu Attach an External Node js processAnother option to begin a debugging session is attaching to an external Node js process Start the program with the following command node inspect src server jsOr if you want the debugger to attach before the program starts running add node inspect brk src server jsAfter executing either of the above commands you can open a process picker within Visual Studio Code which lists all the processes that are available to the Node js debugger To open the process picker type Ctrl Shift P and find the Debug Attach to Node Process command This opens a menu that lists each individual Node js process running on your machine There may be several entries but it should be easy enough to select the one you are interested in Select the relevant entry to start the debugging session Creating a breakpointBreakpoints allow you to pause the code execution on a specific line to inspect it You can create breakpoints in Visual Studio Code almost anywhere except function declaration statements You are not restricted from doing so on variable declarations expressions comments and blank lines Create a breakpoint by clicking the gutter to the left of the line numbers in the editor As you move your mouse across the numbers a red circle appears on each line Clicking the red circle on a line causes it to turn bright red indicating that an active breakpoint is present on that line You can repeat this for all the lines in your program that are relevant to the problem you re trying to solve When you create a breakpoint in the handler for a route for instance you can trigger it by executing that part of the code by making a request to the route using the browser or tools like Postman or curl This causes the program to stop executing and you can inspect the values of any current scope identifier in the VARIABLES pane by hovering on the line of the current breakpoint that s highlighted in yellow This is similar to the JavaScript debugger in web browsers In the BREAKPOINTS pane all the breakpoints that are enabled in your project are available You can edit or disable any breakpoint from there which is helpful if you have several breakpoints across different files in your application You can also break on all exceptions that occur in your application or uncaught exceptions only In the latter case this means the debugger pauses before the error message prints and you can inspect what may have gone wrong before the process exits A variant of breakpoints that is useful for the debugging workflow is the logpoint which logs a message or value to the console instead of pausing the code execution and breaking into the debugger Think of it as a more sophisticated console log statement that is easy to add and remove without editing the code itself It is represented by a red diamond shaped icon in place of the red circle Set a logpoint by right clicking the gutter and selecting Add Logpoint This brings up an input field where you can log text to the console If you want to log the value of an expression or a variable place it within curly brackets Inspecting valuesLet s take a deeper look at how you can inspect values in your program as it runs The main aspects the editor pays attention to are the VARIABLES and WATCH panes VARIABLES paneThe VARIABLES pane is where you can inspect the values of variables and expressions that were evaluated at the breakpoint If you open the context menu by right clicking on any of the values listed you can perform a few actions on the variable Set Value lets you modify the variable s value to test certain values while code is executing Copy Value copies the value of a variable to the clipboard Copy as Expression copies an expression to access the variable Add to Watch adds the variable to the WATCH pane for monitoring WATCH paneThe main benefit of the WATCH pane is that you can easily bring values that you want to monitor into view while the code is paused Instead of digging through a deeply nested property in the VARIABLES pane each time you want to check its value you can add it to the WATCH pane for easy access This is most useful when determining the values of several variables at once since they are automatically recalculated in the execution Tracing the path of code executionThe debug toolbar at the top of the editor provides several commands to navigate through the debugger efficiently When you re trying to find the path the program took to get to a specific line or function these features prove invaluable Continue F When the program halts at a breakpoint you can use this button to resume the execution of the code until the next breakpoint if any Step Over F This command executes the currently highlighted line and pauses before the next line executes You can run the command to move down a function and fully understand it s executed in the process If you use this command on a line that calls a function it executes the entire function and pauses at the line underneath the function call Step Into F The Step Into command works just like Step Over except when it hits a function call it enters the invoked function and pauses on the first line This is a useful way to move from one place to another in your codebase without skipping any details Step Out Shift F This command continues the execution and pauses at the last line of the current function This can be used if you accidentally enter a function that is not relevant to the problem you re attempting to solve This command helps you get out of that function and back to the relevant bits quickly Restart Ctrl Shift F Use this to reset the debugger instead of killing and launching it again Stop Shift F When you re done debugging a program use this command to exit the debugging session If you attach to an external Node js process an icon appears to disconnect from the process instead Debugging TypeScript with source mapsMany Node js projects are now written in TypeScript which can also be debugged with Visual Studio Code To begin enable sourceMap in your tsconfig json file compilerOptions sourceMap true Once enabled attach to the running process and set breakpoints in your TypeScript file Visual Studio Code searches the entire project for source maps excluding the node modules folder You can use the outFiles attribute in your launch configuration file to specify the exact location where Visual Studio Code must look for source maps this should be the location of the JavaScript output version configurations type pwa node request launch name Launch TypeScript skipFiles lt node internals gt preLaunchTask compile program workspaceFolder src server ts outFiles workspaceFolder dist js If you re using ts node to run your project without a build step the process is simpler Instead of using the launch json configuration above use the following version configurations type pwa node request launch name Launch Server skipFiles lt node internals gt runtimeArgs r ts node register args workspaceFolder src server ts There is no program attribute so runtimeArgs registers ts node as the handler for TypeScript files and the first argument to args is the entry file for
