Frequently Asked Questions

How are REST paths mapped to JSON-RPC methods?: REST paths like '/users/{id}' with GET are converted to methods like 'getUser'. The HTTP method and resource are combined to form a logical JSON-RPC method name.
How are JSON-RPC parameters converted to GraphQL?: JSON-RPC parameters are mapped to GraphQL input variables. Object parameters become InputTypes, and the parameter names are preserved.
Can I convert between any protocols?: Yes, the tool supports conversion between REST, JSON-RPC, and GraphQL in any direction. Some concepts may not have direct equivalents, but the tool makes reasonable approximations.
Are the generated code examples executable?: The examples are meant to be illustrative. You may need to modify them slightly (such as providing actual server URLs) before using them in a real application.
How accurate are the conversions?: The conversions follow common practices and conventions for each protocol. However, there's no one 'official' way to convert between protocols, so the results may need adjustments for your specific use case.
