Graphene-Django is an open-source library that provides seamless integration between Django, a high-level Python web framework, and Graphene, a library for building GraphQL APIs. The library allows developers to create GraphQL APIs in Django quickly and efficiently while maintaining a high level of performance.

• Seamless integration with Django models
• Automatic generation of GraphQL schema
• Integration with Django's authentication and permission system
• Easy querying and filtering of data
• Support for Django's pagination system
• Compatible with Django's form and validation system
• Extensive documentation and community support

To install Graphene-Django, run the following command:

pip install graphene-django

After installation, add 'graphene_django' to your Django project's INSTALLED_APPS list and define the GraphQL schema in your project's settings:

INSTALLED_APPS = [ # ... 'graphene_django', ] GRAPHENE = { 'SCHEMA': 'myapp.schema.schema' }

To use Graphene-Django, create a schema.py file in your Django app directory and define your GraphQL types and queries:

import graphene from graphene_django import DjangoObjectType from .models import MyModel class MyModelType(DjangoObjectType): class Meta: model = MyModel class Query(graphene.ObjectType): mymodels = graphene.List(MyModelType) def resolve_mymodels(self, info, **kwargs): return MyModel.objects.all() schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query)

Then, expose the GraphQL API in your Django project's urls.py file:

from django.urls import path from graphene_django.views import GraphQLView from . import schema urlpatterns = [ # ... path('graphql/', GraphQLView.as_view(graphiql=True)), # Given that schema path is defined in GRAPHENE['SCHEMA'] in your settings.py ]

Graphene-Django provides support for testing GraphQL APIs using Django's test client. To create tests, create a tests.py file in your Django app directory and write your test cases:

from django.test import TestCase from graphene_django.utils.testing import GraphQLTestCase from . import schema class MyModelAPITestCase(GraphQLTestCase): GRAPHENE_SCHEMA = schema.schema def test_query_all_mymodels(self): response = self.query( '''  query {  mymodels {  id  name  }  }  ''' ) self.assertResponseNoErrors(response) self.assertEqual(len(response.data['mymodels']), MyModel.objects.count())
