# [2.0.0](v1.14.0...v2.0.0) (2020-11-20) ### Features * **server:** Make and use with your own flavour ([#64](#64)) ([38bde87](38bde87)), closes [#61](#61) [#73](#73) [#75](#75) ### BREAKING CHANGES * **server:** You now "make" a ready-to-use server that can be used with _any_ WebSocket implementation! Summary of breaking changes: - No more `keepAlive`. The user should provide its own keep-alive implementation. _(I highly recommend [WebSocket Ping and Pongs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSockets_API/Writing_WebSocket_servers#Pings_and_Pongs_The_Heartbeat_of_WebSockets))_ - No more HTTP `request` in the server context. - No more WebSocket in the server context (you're the one that creates it). - You use your own WebSocket server - Server exports only `makeServer` _(no more `createServer`)_ ### Benefits - You're responsible for the server (_any_ optimisation or adjustment can be applied) - Any WebSocket server can be used (or even mocked if necessary) - You control the disposal of the server (close or transfer clients however you wish) - New `extra` field in the `Context` for storing custom values useful for callbacks - Full control of authentication flow - Full control over error handling - True zero-dependency ### Migrating from v1 **Only the server has to be migrated.** Since this release allows you to use your favourite WebSocket library (or your own implementation), using [ws](https://github.com/websockets/ws) is just one way of using `graphql-ws`. This is how to use the implementation shipped with the lib: ```ts /** * ❌ instead of the lib creating a WebSocket server internally with the provided arguments */ import https from 'https'; import { createServer } from 'graphql-ws'; const server = https.createServer(...); createServer( { onConnect(ctx) { // were previously directly on the context ctx.request as IncomingRequest ctx.socket as WebSocket }, ...rest, }, { server, path: '/graphql', }, ); /** * ✅ you have to supply the server yourself */ import https from 'https'; import ws from 'ws'; // yarn add ws import { useServer } from 'graphql-ws/lib/use/ws'; // notice the import path const server = https.createServer(...); const wsServer = new ws.Server({ server, path: '/graphql', }); useServer( { onConnect(ctx) { // are now in the `extra` field ctx.extra.request as IncomingRequest ctx.extra.socket as WebSocket }, ...rest, }, wsServer, // optional keepAlive with ping pongs (defaults to 12 seconds) ); ```
