GraphQL - DQL interoperability
If you are a GraphQL developer, you can deploy a GraphQL Schema in Dgraph and immediately get a GraphQL API served on /graphql
endpoint and a backend.
You don’t need to concern yourself with the powerful graph database running in the background. However, by leveraging the graph database and using Dgraph Query Language (DQL), the Dgraph’s proprietary language, you can address advanced use cases and overcome some limitations of the GraphQL specification.
This section covers how to use DQL in the conjunction with GraphQL API, what are the best parctices and the points of attention.
