graphql-web-lite

library16.6.0-4jsnpmunverified

A slimmed-down fork of graphql-js (v16.6.0) optimized for client-side use. Retains the core GraphQL language and operation execution, but removes server-only features (schema definition, validation, introspection) to reduce bundle size (~50% smaller). Published as 'graphql-web-lite' on npm. Suitable for lightweight GraphQL clients or fragments of graphql-js where full parser/executor is needed without schema building. Active maintenance tracking graphql-js releases.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

parse

✓ import { parse } from 'graphql-web-lite'

✗ import { parse } from 'graphql-web-lite/parse'

Import from the main package; subpath imports are not supported.

execute

✓ import { execute } from 'graphql-web-lite'

✗ import { executeSync } from 'graphql-web-lite'

Only execute (async) is exported; executeSync is not available.

✓ import { print } from 'graphql-web-lite'

✗ const { print } = require('graphql-web-lite')

Package is ESM-only; require() will fail. Use dynamic import or import syntax.

GraphQLSchema

✓ import { GraphQLSchema } from 'graphql'

✗ import { GraphQLSchema } from 'graphql-web-lite'

GraphQLSchema is intentionally excluded. Use full graphql-js if schema building is needed.

Shows basic parse and execute of a GraphQL query with a resolver.

import { parse, execute } from 'graphql-web-lite' const source = `{ hello }` const doc = parse(source) const rootValue = { hello() { return 'world' } } const schema = {} const result = await execute({ schema, document: doc, rootValue, }) console.log(result.data) // { hello: 'world' }

Use import syntax or dynamic import() instead of require().

affects: >=16.0.0

gotchaVersion numbers differ from graphql-js; 16.6.0-4 is a fork, not official graphql-js.

fix

Check compatibility with graphql-js versions carefully; treat as independent.

affects: >=16.0.0

deprecatedexecuteSync is not exported; only async execute is available.

fix

Use execute (async/await) instead.

affects: >=16.0.0

Errors
