$ pip install gql # You should use a virtualenv
from gql import gql, Client
from gql.transport.requests import RequestsHTTPTransport
_transport = RequestsHTTPTransport(
url='https://graphql-pokemon.now.sh/',
use_json=True,
)
client = Client(
transport=_transport,
fetch_schema_from_transport=True,
)
query = gql("""
{
pokemon(name: "Pikachu") {
attacks {
special {
name
}
}
}
}
""")
print(client.execute(query))
$ python fetch.py
{'pokemon': {'attacks': {'special': [{'name': 'Discharge'}, {'name': 'Thunder'}, {'name': 'Thunderbolt'}]}}}
