Getting Started

In order to run this project you need to create the data model (schema) below using graphcool console online and setup Auth0.

graphcool - HandsUp Schema

This is the schema used

type Question {
  id: ID!
  body: String!
  votes: [Vote!]! @relation(name: "VoteOnQuestion")
  user: User @relation(name: "UserOnQuestion")
  createdAt: DateTime!
  updatedAt: DateTime!
}

type Vote {
  id: ID!
  question: Question @relation(name: "VoteOnQuestion")
  createdAt: DateTime!
  updatedAt: DateTime!
}

type User {
  auth0UserId: String
  id: ID!
  name: String
  username: String
  pictureUrl: String
  questions: [Question!]! @relation(name: "UserOnQuestion")
  role: USER_ROLE
  createdAt: DateTime!
  updatedAt: DateTime!
}
