### Fetching data
|

To fetch a specific `product` by it's ID you can use the `id` argument. The real name id field will be resolved automatically so this query will work even if your id column is named something like `product_id`.

You will often find the need to fetch aggregated values from the database such as `count`, `max`, `min`, etc. This is simple to do with GraphQL, just prefix the aggregation name to the field name that you want to aggregrate like `count_id`. The below query will group products by name and find the minimum price for each group. Notice the `min_price` field we're adding `min_` to price.

### Full text search
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Every app these days needs search. Enought his often means reaching for something heavy like Solr. While this will work why add complexity to your infrastructure when Postgres has really great
|
||||||
|
and fast full text search built-in. And since it's part of Postgres it's also available in Super Graph.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```graphql
|
||||||
|
query {
|
||||||
|
products(
|
||||||
|
# Search for all products that contain 'ale' or some version of it
|
||||||
|
search: "ale"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Return only matches where the price is less than 10
|
||||||
|
where: { price: { lt: 10 } }
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Use the search_rank to order from the best match to the worst
|
||||||
|
order_by: { search_rank: desc }) {
|
||||||
|
id
|
||||||
|
name
|
||||||
|
search_rank
|
||||||
|
search_headline_description
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This query will use the `tsvector` column in your database table to search for products that contain the query phrase or some version of it. To get the internal relevance ranking for the search results using the `search_rank` field. And to get the highlighted context within any of the table columns you can use the `search_headline_` field prefix. For example `search_headline_name` will return the contents of the products name column which contains the matching query marked with the `<b></b>` html tags.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"data": {
|
||||||
|
"products": [
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
"search_headline_description": "Blue Moon, Vegetable Beer, Willamette, 1007 - German <b>Ale</b>, 48 IBU, 7.9%, 11.8°Blg"
|
||||||
|
},

||||||
|

||||||

},
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
```

|

||||||
|
#### Adding search to your Rails app
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's really easy to enable Postgres search on any table within your database schema. All it takes is to create the following migration. In the below example we add a full-text search to the `products` table.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ruby
|
||||||
|
class AddSearchColumn < ActiveRecord::Migration[5.1]
|
||||||
|
def self.up
|
||||||
|
add_column :products, :tsv, :tsvector
|
||||||
|
add_index :products, :tsv, using: "gin"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
say_with_time("Adding trigger to update the ts_vector column") do
|
||||||
|
execute <<-SQL
|
||||||
|
CREATE FUNCTION products_tsv_trigger() RETURNS trigger AS $$
|
||||||
|
begin
|
||||||
|
new.tsv :=
|
||||||
|
setweight(to_tsvector('pg_catalog.english', coalesce(new.name,'')), 'A') ||
|
||||||
|
setweight(to_tsvector('pg_catalog.english', coalesce(new.description,'')), 'B');
|
||||||
|
return new;
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
CREATE TRIGGER tsvectorupdate BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON products FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE products_tsv_trigger();
|
||||||
|
SQL
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def self.down
|
||||||
|
say_with_time("Removing trigger to update the tsv column") do
|
||||||
|
execute <<-SQL
|
||||||
|
DROP TRIGGER tsvectorupdate
|
||||||
|
ON products
|
||||||
|
SQL
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
remove_index :products, :tsv
|
||||||
|
remove_column :products, :tsv
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
end
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Authentication
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can only have one type of auth enabled. You can either pick Rails or JWT. Uncomment the one you use and leave the rest commented out.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Rails Auth (Devise / Warden)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Almost all Rails apps use Devise or Warden for authentication. Once the user is
|
||||||
|
authenticated a session is created with the users ID. The session can either be
|
||||||
|
stored in the users browser as a cookie, memcache or redis. If memcache or redis is used then a cookie is set in the users browser with just the session id.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Super Graph can handle all these variations including the old and new session formats. Just enable the right `auth` config based on how your rails app is configured.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Cookie session store
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
auth:
|
||||||
|
type: rails
|
||||||
|
cookie: _app_session
|
||||||
|
store: cookie
|
||||||
|
secret_key_base: caf335bfcfdb04e50db5bb0a4d67ab9...
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Memcache session store
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
auth:
|
||||||
|
type: rails
|
||||||
|
cookie: _app_session
|
||||||
|
store: memcache
|
||||||
|
host: 127.0.0.1
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Redis session store
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
auth:
|
||||||
|
type: rails
|
||||||
|
cookie: _app_session
|
||||||
|
store: redis
|
||||||
|
max_idle: 80,
|
||||||
|
max_active: 12000,
|
||||||
|
url: redis://127.0.0.1:6379
|
||||||
|
password: ""
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### JWT Token Auth
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
auth:
|
||||||
|
type: jwt
|
||||||
|
provider: auth0 #none
|
||||||
|
cookie: _app_session
|
||||||
|
secret: abc335bfcfdb04e50db5bb0a4d67ab9
|
||||||
|
public_key_file: /secrets/public_key.pem
|
||||||
|
public_key_type: ecdsa #rsa
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For JWT tokens we currently support tokens from a provider like Auth0
|
||||||
|
or if you have a custom solution then we look for the `user_id` in the
|
||||||
|
`subject` claim of of the `id token`. If you pick Auth0 then we derive two variables from the token `user_id` and `user_id_provider` for to use in your filters.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We can get the JWT token either from the `authorization` header where we expect it to be a `bearer` token or if `cookie` is specified then we look there.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For validation a `secret` or a public key (ecdsa or rsa) is required. When using public keys they have to be in a PEM format file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Easy to setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Configuration files can either be in YAML or JSON their names are derived from the `GO_ENV` variable, for example `GO_ENV=prod` will cause the `prod.yaml` config file to be used. or `GO_ENV=dev` will use the `dev.yaml`. A path to look for the config files in can be specified using the `-path <folder>` command line argument.
