Strawberry Shake GraphQL Client–Update client after changing schema

I blogged about the Strawberry Shake Graphql Client before and today it is my go to tool in .NET when consuming GraphQL API’s. But I always forget the steps to take when the consumed GraphQL schema has changed. So this is a reminder for myself.

Add the CLI tools

It can be that the CLI tools are not yet installed. In that case we should run dotnet tool restore first. This will read out the tool manifest and install any missing tools:

>dotnet tool restore

Tool 'strawberryshake.tools' (version '12.0.1') was restored. Available commands: dotnet-graphql

Restore was successful.

Now we can invoke the graphql update command. This will read out the .graphqlrc.json configuration file and updates the local schema.graphqlfile.

>dotnet graphql update

Download schema started.

Download schema completed in 1328 ms

If we now build our application, the Strawberry Shake Client code generation will be triggered and new / updated C# code will be generated.

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...

DevToys–A swiss army knife for developers

As a developer there are a lot of small tasks you need to do as part of your coding, debugging and testing activities.  DevToys is an offline windows app that tries to help you with these tasks.
