Description

Parse Graphql queries

Changelog (versions):

  1. Initial
  2. Version 2 is much improved and intended to integrate well with customized highlighting with the help of the awesome Rich library.
  3. Bug fixes and added rich example.
  4. Bugfixes and now the regex is actually recognizing the different parts of field_with_params. And an improved example to go with that.

Todo (maybe):

  • Improve the beginning, opening, closing and ending curly bracket recognition with better support for malformed queries and make sure there's only one BEGIN and one END in situations where newlines are present.
  • Also differentiate between arbitrary text and actual graphql query language content. For example, the string "asdf" is currently recognized and categorized as a child_field when it shouldn't be recognized at all.

Version 4
