Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-5495:
---------------------------------------

[~rareddy] [~rhn-engineering-vhalbert] the expectation here could be as little as something akin to our wsdl support.  Construct a json message, get json back for post-processing.  Ideally though there should be Java clients available that can provide abstract reading of graphql schema and querying.  We could then at least provide a top level entity mapping - an entity would be something that has only optional, non-default arguments.  Something with non-optional or default arguments should be represented as a procedure - or perhaps as a table with access pattern(s).  However at first glance most graphql java frameworks look to expect Java bindings (which could be generated).

> We should create translator support for graphql, which will also help us evaluate supporting graphql as a front end as well.
