A Python DB API 2.0 for GraphQL APIs

This module allows you to query GraphQL APIs using SQL.

## SQLAlchemy support

This module provides a SQLAlchemy dialect.

```python
from sqlalchemy.engine import create_engine

# Over HTTPS (default):
engine_https = create_engine('graphql://host:port/path')

# Over HTTP:
engine_http = create_engine('graphql://host:port/path?is_https=0')

# With a `Bearer` token in the `Authorization` header:
engine_http = create_engine('graphql://:token@host:port/path')
```

### Example Usage

#### Querying Connections

```python
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import text

# We use GraphQL SWAPI (The Star Wars API) c/o Netlify:
engine = create_engine('graphql://swapi-graphql.netlify.app/.netlify/functions/index')

# Demonstration of requesting nested resource of homeworld
# and then selecting fields from it
query = "select name, homeworld__name from 'allPeople?include=homeworld'"

with engine.connect() as connection:
    for row in connection.execute(text(query)):
        print(row)
```

#### Querying Lists

We can mark a given GQL query as being a List when we query that "Table" using a query parameter:

```python
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import text

engine = create_engine('graphql://pet-library.moonhighway.com/')

# The default assumes top level is a Connection.
# For Lists, we must disable this:
query = "select id, name from 'allPets?is_connection=0'"

with engine.connect() as connection:
    for row in connection.execute(text(query)):
        print(row)
```

alternatively, we can set that at the `Engine` level:

```python
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import text

# We mark 'allPets' as being a List at the Engine level:
engine = create_engine(
    'graphql://pet-library.moonhighway.com/',
    list_queries=["allPets"],
)

query = "select id, name from allPets"

with engine.connect() as connection:
    for row in connection.execute(text(query)):
        print(row)
```

## Superset support

In order to use with Superset, install this package and then use the `graphql` protocol in the SQLAlchemy URI like: `graphql://swapi-graphql.netlify.app/.netlify/functions/index`. We install a [`db_engine_spec`](https://github.com/cancan101/graphql-db-api/blob/main/graphqldb/db_engine_specs.py) so Superset should recognize the driver.

## Roadmap

- [x] Non-Connections top level
- [x] Path traversal (basic)
- [ ] Path traversal (basic + nested)
- [ ] Path traversal (list / connection)
- [x] Bearer Tokens in `Authorization` Header
- [ ] Advanced Auth (e.g. with token refresh)
- [ ] Passing Headers (e.g. Auth in other locations)
- [ ] Filtering
- [ ] Sorting
- [x] Relay Pagination
