graphql-gateway-java exposes data from various graph microservices using a single unified GraphQL schema. These microservices can be dynamically registered with the Gateway using the /register endpoint. It uses graphql orchestrator library for federating schemas from various data providers.

Highlights:

• Dynamic registration so that the gateway is loosely coupled with the provider development lifecycle.
• Registering REST endpoints using the @adapter directive and Service DSL
• Attribute Based Access Control using the graphql-authorization-java library.

Make sure you have the following installed on your machine:

• Java 11
• Maven
• Docker
• AWS CLI

When running the application locally, localstack is used to mock AWS S3. Follow these steps to start the application.

1. Build the project:

   mvn clean install
   

2. Run aws configure. Enter any value to the prompts presented. Since localstack is used, a real AWS credential is not needed, but make sure to input a valid region name (e.g. us-west-1) and output format (e.g. json).

   aws configure
   

3. Start Docker daemon if not already running.

4. Start the local registry. This starts a localstack docker container.

   ./local_registry/start.sh
   

5. Set up the local registry. This will initialize the registry with example service providers in local_registry folder.

   ./local_registry/setup.sh --empty-registry
   

6. Start the application. Once started, it listens on port 7000.

   ./run.sh
   

   OR

   Run the class GraphqlGatewayApplication as Spring Application using IntelliJ. Set the active profile as local.

NOTE: You do not need to restart the application when you register a new provider service.
