Making your first request

GraphQL API

We'll do a simple query to get meme categories using different languages.

fetch('https://rocketmeme-user.hasura.app/v1/graphql', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
        'content-type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({"operationName":"getPaginatedMemeCategories","variables":{},"query":"query getPaginatedMemeCategories {\n  meme_categories_aggregate(limit: 10, offset: 0) {\n    nodes {\n      id\n      category_title\n      no_of_memes\n      thumb_nail\n      __typename\n    }\n    __typename\n  }\n  count: memes_aggregate(offset: 0) {\n    aggregate {\n      count\n      __typename\n    }\n    __typename\n  }\n}\n"})
});

import fetch from "node-fetch";

const query = `
  query getMemes {
    memes(limit: 3) {
      id
      title
      image_link
    }
  }
`;

const result = await fetch("https://rocketmeme-user.hasura.app/v1/graphql", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "content-type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    operationName: "getMemes",
    variables: {},
    query: query,
  }),
});

const data = await result.json();
console.log(data);

import requests

json_data = {
    'operationName': 'getPaginatedMemeCategories',
    'variables': {},
    'query': 'query getPaginatedMemeCategories {\n  meme_categories_aggregate(limit: 10, offset: 0) {\n    nodes {\n      id\n      category_title\n      no_of_memes\n      thumb_nail\n      __typename\n    }\n    __typename\n  }\n  count: memes_aggregate(offset: 0) {\n    aggregate {\n      count\n      __typename\n    }\n    __typename\n  }\n}\n',
}

response = requests.post('https://rocketmeme-user.hasura.app/v1/graphql', json=json_data)
print(response.content)

Good to know: You could use GraphQL client libraries to simplify requests.
