elephentity-graphql-php

Framework-independent GraphQL integration for Elephentity's PHP runtime, extracted from Clog's standalone backend. It builds a webonyx/graphql-php schema without WordPress or WPGraphQL.

The Composer package name is elephentity/graphql. It requires PHP 8.3+, elephentity/runtime ^0.17 and webonyx/graphql-php ^15.0.

Components

• SchemaBuilder: objects, inputs, interfaces, enums, connections and mutations.
• Manifest: the compiled entity, query, field and mutation descriptions, generated by codegen-graphql-php.
• Registration: maps those descriptions to resolver configurations.
• Relay and Resolver: global IDs and connection results.

Storage stays behind the Elephentity runtime, so this package does not depend on SQLite; any storage adaptor works.

Behaviour

• Global IDs are checked against the expected public GraphQL type on root lookups, mutations and relationship inputs. Raw row IDs remain accepted.
• Connections support first and after; last and before are rejected explicitly. first: 0 returns an empty page and negative sizes are rejected.
• A collection query's arguments appear in the schema under where and reach the query handler as plain arguments.
• Query-only schemas omit the mutation root.

Tests

After installing Composer dependencies, run composer test with PHP 8.3 or later. The regression script can also use an existing dependency autoloader:

php tests/regressions.php /path/to/vendor/autoload.php

Provenance

docs/clog-source.json records the file hashes and Clog commit the source was extracted from; the inherited license is preserved in CLOG-LICENSE. Earlier compatibility evidence is in docs/runtime-compatibility.md.
