graphql-backend

What problem does it solve?

This Skill standardizes Laravel Lighthouse GraphQL backend conventions for schema, directives, resolvers, and schema sync in backend/. Use when editing backend GraphQL schema or resolver classes.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Schema organization: Clear guidance for structuring backend/graphql folders, including schema.graphql, types, and resolvers.
• Directive usage: Standardizes common GraphQL directives (e.g. @globalId, @rename, @guard, @auth) to ensure consistency.
• Resolver guidelines: Guidance on placing resolvers in App\GraphQL\Queries and App\GraphQL\Mutations, with invokable classes and naming conventions.
• Schema Sync workflow: After changes, run the documented commands to dump the GraphQL schema to the frontend and refresh the client.

Quick Start

Apply the conventions to your backend GraphQL files under backend/graphql and App\GraphQL\Resolvers. After edits, run the schema dump to update the frontend as described in the guidelines.
