Connect with Apollo Client

  1. Install dependencies
    npm install @apollo/client graphql
  1. Initialize ApolloClient and Connect with TerminusDB

Import the required dependencies needed -

import { ApolloClient, InMemoryCache, ApolloProvider, gql,HttpLink,ApolloLink } from '@apollo/client';

Or

const Apollo =  require( '@apollo/client');

const { ApolloClient, InMemoryCache, concat, gql,HttpLink,ApolloLink } = Apollo

Initialize ApolloClient by passing its constructor with a configuration object with the TerminusDB server endpoint, user credentials and cache fields.

Extra information about the Apollo client cache can be found on their website

Connect with TerminusDB Local

const orgName = "myOrganizationName"
const dbName = "myDBname"
const myBranch = "main"

const user = "admin"
const password = "mypass"
const userPassEnc = btoa(`${user}:${password}`)

const terminusdbURL = `http://127.0.0.1:6363/api/graphql/${orgName}/${dbName}/local/branch/${myBranch}/`

const httpLink = new HttpLink({ uri: terminusdbURL });
const authMiddleware = new ApolloLink((operation, forward) => {
    // add the authorization to the headers
    operation.setContext(({ headers = {} }) => ({
    headers: {
        ...headers,
        authorization: `Basic ${userPassEnc}`}
    }));
    return forward(operation);
})

const cache = new InMemoryCache({
    addTypename: false
});

const value = concat(authMiddleware, httpLink)

const apolloClient = new ApolloClient({
    cache:cache,
    link: value,       
});

// Query your database

apolloClient
  .query({
    query: gql`
     query{
        Person{
        _id
        name
        }
