Adrien works for Smile, an Alfresco partner, although he did this as an individual.

Project Title: GraphQL endpoint for Alfresco

Aim of Project:  GraphQL is a really good alternative to REST and I wanted to try to implement it on something I knew. I may be useful for clients who want to access a lot of information from Alfresco on one single request.

Project Outcome: Did you solve your problem? Yes, you can do most common requests with the current implementation. Did you produce a working example? Yes, you may find sample requests and mutation here :

• Query: https://github.com/asauvez/alfresco-graphql/blob/master/src/test/resources/query.graphql Expected (and actual)
• result: https://github.com/asauvez/alfresco-graphql/blob/master/src/test/resources/queryResponse.json
• Mutation (one line the query, one line the result: https://github.com/asauvez/alfresco-graphql/blob/master/src/test/resources/mutation.graphql

Can your code be added to Alfresco? Yes, I will be honored. But I don't think you want to multiply the official APIs. So I would understand if it was not done. 

How do others deploy your code? Clone, compile and add dependency : fr.smile.alfresco.graphql graphql 1.0-SNAPSHOT Project Repo:

Do you have ideas on how your project could be enhanced? I am still working on the workflow part. I want to do the full cycle (create workflow on a document, query tasks, signal each step).
