Usage with GraphQLGen.jl

[domluna]

Very nice package!

I'd be interested in using it in conjunction with https://github.com/domluna/GraphQLGen.jl so that the server could support GraphQL. This does not mean adding GraphQLGen.jl to Oxygen.jl in any capacity, I'm thinking of something entirely orthogonal.

It looks like Oxygen integrates well with StructTypes.jl, which GraphQLGen.jl also uses.

I'm thinking it would look similar to https://github.com/ndortega/Oxygen.jl#deserialize--serialize-custom-structs but more involved?

By support graphql, do you mean accept graphql queries or schema? Either could be passed to an endpoint through the body of a request and parsed on the fly.

In that case, you could use the text() function to parse the body of a request and pass it to your library to generate some code.

using Oxygen 

@post "/generate" function (req)
    # parse the body as a string with the text() function
    graphqlschema = text(req)
    # todo: generate files from schema
    return "created the files"
end

Is this what you were talking about? Let me know if I'm way off base
