graphql-configuration-access

OXAPI (GraphQL based) access to configuration settings

Why we use this schema

To fetch and update the configurations we implemented a different query/mutation per value-type. We have chosen this schema because of GraphQL's strictness which doesn't allow for dynamic types. Without these types, the API consumer would always have to convert the value after queries or before mutations if, for example, we decided to use json encoded strings instead.

To get the specific type of a configuration, we provide queries like shopSettings/moduleSettings/themeSettings to figure out the type for configurations. As a result you get an array of setting types:

type SettingType {
  name: string!
  type: FieldType!
  isSupported: boolean!
}

enum FieldType {
  'str'
  'select'
  'bool'
  'num
  'arr'
  'aarr'
}

Install

Switch to the shop root directory (the file composer.json and the directories source/ and vendor/ are located there).

# Install desired version of oxid-esales/graphql-configuration-access module, in this case - latest released 1.x version
$ composer require oxid-esales/graphql-configuration-access ^1.0.0

If you didn't have the oxid-esales/graphql-base module installed, composer will do that for you.

After installing the module, you need to activate it, either via OXID eShop admin or CLI.

$ vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:activate oe_graphql_base
$ vendor/bin/oe-console oe:module:activate oe_graphql_configuration_access

How to use

A good starting point is to check the How to use section in the GraphQL Base Module
