gerardnico/dockiql repository overview

⁠DockiQL

⁠About

GraphiQL⁠ in Docker.

⁠Security Concerns

As you are going to use a browser, you wil hit the Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)⁠ problem. Ie the browser by default does not allow you to make a request to another domain if this domain does not allow it.

There is actually four solutions:

• use ChromeIql⁠ (for Php debugging⁠, you can set it to all request and open or close the debug listener in the IDE)
• put the public⁠ directory on the same web server than your application (and then don't use this image)
• disable web security when starting your browser. Example for chrome:

chromium-browser --disable-web-security --user-data-dir

• allow the request by configuring your server with the CORS headers. Example for the whole www directory:

<Directory /var/www/>
	<IfModule mod_headers.c>
      Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "http://graphiql"
      Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Content-Type"
      Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials "true"
    </IfModule>
</Directory>

⁠Docker command, if you want to

⁠Modify DockiQL

• When you want to develop or modify the code (with cmder⁠ as console)

git clone https://github.com/gerardnico/DockiQL .
MOUNT_POINT=$(cygpath -u $(readlink -f ./public/))
docker run \
   --name DockiQL \
   -p 80:80 \
   --rm \
   --detach \
   --mount type=bind,source=/$MOUNT_POINT,target=/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/ \
   httpd:2.4

When you want to build the docker image

docker build -t gerardnico/dockiql:1.0.0 .

⁠Credits

This project was largely inspired by:

• ChromeIql⁠
• the GraphiQL example⁠ that shows how to use it directly the GraphiQL minifed script.
