defradb client query

Send a DefraDB GraphQL query request

Synopsis

Send a DefraDB GraphQL query request to the database.

A query request can be sent as a single argument. Example command: defradb client query 'query { ... }'

Do a query request from a file by using the '-f' flag. Example command: defradb client query -f request.graphql

Do a query request from a file and with an identity. Example command: defradb client query -i 028d53f37a19afb9a0dbc5b4be30c65731479ee8cfa0c9bc8f8bf198cc3c075f -f request.graphql

Or it can be sent via stdin by using the '-' special syntax. Example command: cat request.graphql | defradb client query -

A GraphQL client such as GraphiQL (https://github.com/graphql/graphiql) can be used to interact with the database more conveniently.
