OSS @Hasura: May Digest

At Hasura we 💜 open source contributions. We want to make the experience of contributing as smooth as possible. In our monthly digest we inform about issues that can be easily picked up and that will be especially beneficial for the Hasura community. We’re doing our best to make sure that all required information is provided, but should there be any issues, you can always reach out for help.

This month, we have the following issues:

Migrating from JavaScript to TypeScript

We are so excited that so far we've had over 30 PRs from the open source community that helped us migrating our Hasura console from JavaScript to Typescript 🙏🏼

There are still a lot of modules left to be migrated. If you're interested, check out this issue. If you'd like to work on a module or if you have any questions, please comment on the issue. To find instructions about the local development setup, head to the contributing guide for the Hasura console.

Actions codegen

Actions are a way of extending your GraphQL schema with custom business logic using custom queries and mutations.

We keep adding new codegens for actions. So far, we have codegen for the following frameworks:

nodejs-express
nodejs-zeit
typescript-zeit
nodejs-Azure-function
go-serve-mux
javascript-js-doc-express
kotlin-http4k
kotlin-ktor
python-fast-api
python-flask
ruby-rails
typescript-express
java-spring-boot

We want to have codegen for all the frameworks out there and we'd love your help in adding more! 🔥

This issue lists frameworks that we're particularly interested in. In this README you can find detailed instructions on how to contribute to Hasura codegen.

If you'd like to implement one of these, please comment on the issue so that we and everyone else knows what frameworks are currently being worked on.

We continuously add to our Learn tutorials. Currently we have the following groups of tutorials:

There are a few tasks that we'd love to have your help with:

If you're interested in working on one of these, please comment on the respective issue. Questions are also welcome :)
