Turn your Go REST API to GraphQL using Hasura Actions
This post discusses how to convert a Go REST API to GraphQL using Hasura Actions. It explains that writing a GraphQL server from scratch involves setting up the schema, type definitions, and resolvers, which can become complex as an application grows. Hasura reduces this complexity by providing instant GraphQL CRUD for databases like Postgres, covering most data fetching and real-time subscription use cases. The post demonstrates how to define GraphQL types required for an Action and create a simple Express app to handle the resolver bit. It also covers permissions, relationship data, existing REST APIs, query actions, and supported frameworks.
