Sending GraphlQL queries from a Rust Component

This sample illustrates how to send GraphQL queries using a popular Rust library.

The code runs a simple query for a repository's number of stars, and renders the result as a bare-bones HTML page.

It needs a GH API token to work.

Build and test the app locally

To run or deploy the app, you need to generate a GitHub API token. Nothing beyond the default permissions is required, at least for reading the number of stars of public repositories.

Once you've cloned the repository and moved to the ./samples/graphql-stargazer directory, install the dependencies, build and run the app:

spin build
SPIN_VARIABLE_GH_API_TOKEN=[your API token] spin up

You can now visit the page, e.g. by opening this URL in a browser: http://localhost:3000/spinframework/spin. If you're getting an error, make sure that you provided a valid GitHub API token.

Deploy to FWF and Run the Spin App

To deploy the application, follow these steps:

spin build
spin aka deploy --variable gh_api_token=[your API token]

The spin aka deploy command will print the application URL to stdout. The application is now ready, and you can visit it in your browser by opening the printed URL.
