To get started with the GrAMPS CLI:
# Install the CLI
yarn add --dev @gramps/cli@beta
# npm install --save-dev @gramps/cli@beta
NOTE: We prefer Yarn, but if you use npm, use the alternative commands shown in comments below each example.
$(yarn bin)/gramps dev
# $(npm bin)/gramps dev
This will start a gateway server on port 8080 (or a random port if 8080 is in use). You can open the GraphQL Playground at http://localhost:8080/playground to verify the gateway is working.
If you're working on a custom data source, you can test it by running the following:
# Using live data
$(yarn bin)/gramps dev --data-source ../my-data-source
# $(npm bin)/gramps dev --data-source ../my-data-source
# Turn on mock data
$(yarn bin)/gramps dev --data-source ../my-data-source --mock
# $(npm bin)/gramps dev --data-source ../my-data-source --mock
NOTE: You can develop using multiple local data sources by passing multiple paths to the
--data-sources
option (an alias of--data-source
):$(yarn bin)/gramps dev --data-sources ./one ./two # $(npm bin)/gramps dev --data-sources ./one ./twoThis is helpful if you're working on something like schema stitching.
When working with the CLI, any GrAMPS-powered gateway can be used for development — just provide the path to its start script in the --gateway
option:
$(yarn bin)/gramps dev --gateway ../my-gateway
# $(npm bin)/gramps dev --gateway ../my-gateway
NOTE: This is useful for running a production gateway locally.
$(yarn bin)/gramps dev -g ./gateway -d ./data-source
# $(npm bin)/gramps dev -g ./gateway -d ./data-source
NOTE: For brevity, the shorthand of
--gateway
and--data-source
—-g
and-d
respectively — are used here.
If the data source is already installed on the gateway, GrAMPS will override it with the local version. This is extremely useful for debugging, maintenance, and experimentation.
