This API was developed in collaboration with the Ucraft Team.

Requirements:

  • Bagisto: ^2.3.0

Installation:

To install the Bagisto GraphQL API, follow these steps:

  1. Install via Composer

    Run the following command in your terminal to install the GraphQL API package:

    composer require bagisto/graphql-api:dev-main
  2. Run the following commands to complete the setup

    php artisan bagisto-graphql:install

Usage:

  1. GraphQL Playground

    After installation, you can test your API through the GraphQL Playground. Visit:

    http://your-domain.com/graphiql
    
  2. Postman Integration

    Alternatively, you can test the API using Postman by accessing:

    http://your-domain.com/graphql
    

3. Authorization

To call certain APIs, you need to include x-app-secret-key in the request header.

  1. Set the Key

    The APP_SECRET_KEY is generated automatically during installation and stored in your .env file:

    APP_SECRET_KEY=generated-secret-key
  2. Share Securely

    Provide this key to the frontend or mobile team as needed.

  3. Include in Requests

    Add the header to your API calls:

    x-app-secret-key: generated-secret-key
    
  1. GraphQL Playground Endpoint Configuration

    Ensure that the GRAPHQL_ENDPOINT in your .env file is set to your application's URL followed by /graphiql. For example:

    GRAPHQL_ENDPOINT=https://your-domain.com/graphiql
  2. Cache Your GraphQL Schema for Better Performance

    To avoid rebuilding the schema on every request, you can cache it. This improves performance significantly in production environments.

    Run the following Artisan command to cache the schema:

    php artisan lighthouse:cache

    If you make changes to your schema, remember to clear the cache:

    php artisan lighthouse:clear-cache

That's it! Your Bagisto GraphQL API is now ready. Execute the project on your specified domain and start building your headless eCommerce solution.
