Since version 9 of NextJS it's now possible to setup express api routes for your application. You can export a express instance from the /api route.
It's relatively easy to implement GraphQL as your backend service. All you need is apollo-server-micro package from npm.
npm i apollo-server-micro --save
Put following contents in /pages/api/index.js:
import { ApolloServer, gql } from "apollo-server-micro";
const typeDefs = gql`
type Query {
hello: String!
}
`;
const resolvers = {
Query: {
hello: () => {
return "welcome!";
},
}
};
const apolloServer = new ApolloServer({
typeDefs,
resolvers,
context: () => ({}),
});
export default apolloServer.createHandler({ path: "/api" });
export const config = {
api: {
bodyParser: false,
},
};
Now npm run dev your project and you will see the Apollo GraphQL playground running at http://localhost:3000/api.
