February 2023

:man_astronaut:t3: Executive Summary

Another great month of shipping. We converted the codebase for graph-cli to TypeScript, migrated graph-ts and graph-cli under the :open_umbrella: graph-tooling repository. We are finally ready to merge Nested Sorting behind feature flag in graph-node and soon rollout to the network. We recently started to join the monthly Dev Rel call and are working on a proposal to streamline the docs experience.

:tada: Looking back (what was delivered)

Note: many of us were away but tried our best to keep the boat sailing.

  • graph-node
    • Gathered metrics around GraphQL Validation and working on an action plan for rollout with E&N Team
    • Polishing Nested Sorting for rollout
    • Testing forward cursor pagination to support Relay Spec compliant connection cursors
  • graph-client
    • Performance improvements
  • graph-tooling
    • Migrated codebase to TypeScript
    • Merged graph-ts into graph-tooling
    • Finalizing OClif migration - this will help us ship CLI as a binary so we can avoid all sorts of dependency problems some new users face in onboarding today when getting started with graph-cli
    • graph-cli add start block prompt to make it easier easier to set a start block
    • graph-cli bug fixes
  • graph-docs
    • Worked on a proposal on unifying the Graph documentation across core devs

:rocket: Looking ahead (upcoming priorities)

  • graph-node
    • Rollout Nested Sorting
    • Execute the rollout plan with E&N team on GraphQL Validations
    • Relay style cursor pagination get feedback and test more
  • graph-client
    • Performance improvements and bug fixes
