GraphQL–HotChocolate–How to handle an incomplete schema

HotChocolate does a lot of effort to validate that you produced a valid schema before your application starts up. This is useful when a feature is ready but during development it can be annoying as maybe you already want to run your application before having resolvers ready for every field in your schema.

By default when you try to run with an incomplete schema, you’ll get an error message similar to the following:

An error occurred while starting the application.

SchemaException: The schema builder was unable to identify the query type of the schema. Either specify which type is the query type or set the schema builder to non-strict validation mode.

HotChocolate.SchemaBuilder.Create() in SchemaBuilder.Create.cs, line 0

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
