Silent failure with graphiql hanging on body parse about graffiti-mongoose

[tothandras]

Hi!
Have you connected to the mongodb?https://github.com/RisingStack/graffiti/blob/master/example/schema/index.js#L6

[jontonsoup]

Here are the relevant parts of my server.js -- I am connecting to mongo and express graphql was working before on my normal schema. I just tested my normal schema as well with graffiti and its not working, so its possible this issue should be posted in that repo.

'use strict'

import express from 'express'
....

var User = require('./models/user')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')
var cors = cors = require('cors')
var passport = require('passport')
var session = require('cookie-session')

const app = global.app = express()
const mongo = (global.process.env.NODE_ENV == 'development') ? 'mongodb://localhost/graph' : global.process.env.MONGOLAB_URI
const port = (global.process.env.NODE_ENV == 'development') ? 8080 : global.process.env.PORT

mongoose.connect(mongo);

app.set('port', port)
app.set('view engine', 'jade')
app.set('views', __dirname + '/views')
app.use(cookieParser())
app.use(session({keys: ['secretkey1']}))
app.use(bodyParser.json())
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }))
app.use(cors())

app.use(passport.initialize())
app.use(passport.session())
initialize_passport(passport)

console.log(path.join(__dirname, '../deploy'))
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, '../deploy')))

app.use(set_locals)

app.use('/', router)

//THIS WAS WORKING BEFORE
// app.use('/graphql', graphqlHTTP(request => ({
//  schema: schema,
//  graphiql: true,
//  rootValue: { request: request},
// })))

app.use(graffiti.express({
    schema: getSchema([User])
}))

Are you sure these 3 lines are necessary?

app.use(bodyParser.json())
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }))
app.use(cors())

I am only on my phone, just guessing.

@tothandras no worries! Any help is appreciated :).

I know CORS it necessary for some other things I'm doing unrelated to graphql, but I haven't factored it out into a mounted sub-app yet. Let me see if removing them will change it.

[jontonsoup]

hah, that was quick :).

The body parser was holding everything up. Thanks for the help!

[tothandras]

I'm glad I was able to help! :)
