Resolving Query Without Server (for generating mocks)

[a-laughlin]

Love the project! Looking to generate mocks for testing client state. Is there any way to render query output to a file without starting the server? It looks like graphqlHTTP is the only query api currently.

@a-laughlin Do you want a CLI flag for that or you want to use graphql-faker as a library in your framework?

Simple and flexible is good. Perhaps a query function to generate various mocks on demand. e.g., "require('graphql-faker').query(<querytext>, vars)". It might even be possible to use the graphql-js execute function as is. CLI would be more complicated. Running 'node -e "require('graphql-faker').query(<querytext>, vars)" would likely work good enough for cli scenarios, and allows optionally substituting fs.readFileSync to read queries from files.

Through a library will be good!
