Executing a query

For executing a query a schema, you can directly call the execute method on it.

schema = graphene.Schema(...)
result = schema.execute('{ name }')

result represents the result of execution. result.data is the result of executing the query, result.errors is None if no errors occurred, and is a non-empty list if an error occurred.

Context

You can pass context to a query via context.

class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
    name = graphene.String()

    def resolve_name(root, info):
        return info.context.get('name')

schema = graphene.Schema(Query)
result = schema.execute('{ name }', context={'name': 'Syrus'})

Variables

You can pass variables to a query via variables.

class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
    user = graphene.Field(User, id=graphene.ID(required=True))

    def resolve_user(root, info, id):
        return get_user_by_id(id)

schema = graphene.Schema(Query)
result = schema.execute(
    '''
      query getUser($id: ID) {
        user(id: $id) {
          id
          firstName
          lastName
        }
      }
    ''',
    variables={'id': 12},
)
