Quell
Quell is an easy-to-use, lightweight JavaScript library providing a client- and server-side caching solution and cache invalidation for GraphQL.
Installation
Quell-Client and Quell-Server
Quell is divided into two npm packages:
- Download @quell/client from npm in your terminal with
npm i @quell/client - Download @quell/server from npm in your terminal with
npm i @quell/server
Features
- IP-Rate Limiting to protect your server.
- Successfully handling cache mutations with cache invalidation.
- Quell/server offers optional depth and cost limiting middleware to protect your GraphQL endpoint! To use, please explore the @quell/server readme.
- Server-side cache now caches entire queries in instances where it is unable to cache individual datapoints.
- Client-side caching utilizing LokiJS.
- Server-side caching utilizing a configurable Redis in-memory data store with batching.
- Partial and exact match query caching.
- Programmatic rebuilding of GraphQL queries to fetch only the minimum data necessary to complete the response based upon current cache contents.
- A easy-to-use Chrome Developer Tools extension designed for Quell users. With this extension, users can:
- Inspect and monitor the latency of client-side GraphQL/Quell requests.
- Make and monitor the latency of GraphQL/Quell requests to a specified server endpoint.
- View server-side cache data and contents, with the ability to manually clear the cache
- Features require zero-to-minimal configuration and can work independently of
@quell/clientand@quell/server

Usage Notes
- Currently, Quell can cache 1) query-type requests without variables or directives and 2) mutation-type requests (add, update, and delete) with cache invalidation implemented. Quell will still process other requests, but will not cache the responses.
Quell Developer Tool
Quell Developer Tool is currently available as a Chrome Developer Tools extension. The easiest way to get it is to add it from the Chrome Web Store.
