GraphQL Framework for Python
Project description
Please read UPGRADE-v1.0.md to learn how to upgrade to Graphene 1.0.
Graphene
Graphene is a Python library for building GraphQL schemas/types fast and easily.
Easy to use: Graphene helps you use GraphQL in Python without effort.
Relay: Graphene has builtin support for Relay
Data agnostic: Graphene supports any kind of data source: SQL (Django, SQLAlchemy), NoSQL, custom Python objects, etc. We believe that by providing a complete API you could plug Graphene anywhere your data lives and make your data available through GraphQL.
Integrations
Graphene has multiple integrations with different frameworks:

Examples
Here is one example for get you started:
class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
hello = graphene.String(description='A typical hello world')
def resolve_hello(self, args, context, info):
return 'World'
schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query)
Then Querying graphene.Schema is as simple as:
query = '''
query SayHello {
hello
}
'''
result = schema.execute(query)
