回复： [PROPOSAL] [GSOC 2019] Adding the GraphQL support for RestServices in ServiceComb SDK.

I agree with Willem. After looking at what GraphQL is doing, I can't figure out how java-chassis will benefit from this component. May be you can write a small demonstration using java-chassis and we can go on for further discussion.

Hi Asif，

I just had a quick look for the website. It looks like the GraphQL
could reduce the response message size by specifying the interested
data in requery . As the service is consumed by JS front end, I'm not
sure java-chassis's service consumer can leverage this feature.
From the implementation side, as Java chassis is based on the Open API
module to provide the service governance support, it could be a
challenge for us to bridge the GraphQL with Java-chassis. Do you have
any idea about that?
