DJANGO WITH GRAPHENE API

Introduction

Django, the web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. It allows you to quickly prototype and build full web applications with less code.

Last but not least, there’s Graphene and Graphene-Django, exposing a simple and powerful API for creating GraphQL servers.

GraphQL is a query language for your API, and a server-side runtime for executing queries by using a type system you define for your data. GraphQL isn't tied to any specific database or storage engine and is instead backed by your existing code and data.

Workspace Setup

In the terminal, create a new virtual environment and activate it

$ virtualenv env
$ . env/bin/activate

With the virtual environment activated, run the following commands:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Run migrate

 $ python manage.py makemigrations
 $ python manage.py migrate

After that you can now run the Server using this command

$ python manage.py runserver *youcanspecifyporthere

Some [manage.py] commands ($ python manage.py)

Command	Usage
makemigrations	Prepare the changes on models.py (models.py is your Table Structure)
migrate	Migrate all the changes made on models.py
createsuperuser	Create a SuperUser on UserTable
startapp *yourappname	Create new app/module
