goodreads-graphql

Motivation: Trying to bring some semblance of order and usability to the Goodreads API by wrapping it with GraphQL and treating the original REST API as a datasource.

Feel free to use it, fork it, or play with it alongside your Goodreads REST queries. Do let me know any suggestions to improve or problems that creep up.

Endpoints Available:

1. author queries https://www.goodreads.com/api/author_url/{author_name}?key={api_key}

2. authorData queries https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/{author_id}?format=xml&?key={api_key}. USAGE: Get the Author ID from previous call

3. bookData calls https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/{book_id}?format=xml?key={api_key} USAGE: Book ID can be found in previous call

4. groupsByName calls https://www.goodreads.com/group/search.xml?key={api_key}&q={search_query}. Returns an array of groups based on the Query string.
   USAGE: Group names have dashes as delimeter like goodreads-librarians-group. However, just type "goodreads librarians group" as the search query

5. groupData NOTE: A lot of the nested author objects have values like this: user_id: { type: 'integer', nil: true }. These, I just return null
