An extensible client for connecting with GraphQL over Websockets following the
[graphql-ws](https://github.com/enisdenjo/graphql-ws) conventions.

## Installation

The package can be installed by adding `graphql_ws_client` to your list of
dependencies in `mix.exs`.

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:graphql_ws_client, "~> 1.0"},
  ]
end
```

If you are using the default configuration, `GraphQLWSClient.Drivers.Gun` is
used as driver and you will need the `gun` and `jason` packages as well.

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    # ...
    {:gun, "~> 2.0"},
    {:jason, "~> 1.4"},
  ]
end
```

Take a
look in the driver documentation to find out how to customize driver options.

Alternatively, you can write your own driver based on the
`GraphQLWSClient.Driver` behaviour.

## Usage

```elixir
{:ok, socket} = GraphQLWSClient.start_link(url: "ws://localhost:4000/socket")

{:ok, subscription_id} = GraphQLWSClient.subscribe(
  socket,
  "subscription PostCreated { ... }"
)

{:ok, _} = GraphQLWSClient.query(socket, "mutation CreatePost { ... }")

receive do
  %GraphQLWSClient.Event{} = event ->
    IO.inspect(event)
end

GraphQLClient.close(socket)
```

## Custom Client

If you want to run the client as part of a supervision tree in your
application, you can also `use GraphQLWSClient` to create your own client.

```elixir
defmodule MyClient do
  use GraphQLWSClient, otp_app: :my_app
end
```

Then, you can configure your client using a config file:

```elixir
import Config

config :my_app, MyClient,
  url: "ws://localhost:4000/socket"
```
