@brant Is Graph Cool deprecated, or what?
b
I’m not sure. I haven’t checked in on it in a while but it seems like they’d changed focus to prisma
p
yes they did a long time ago but I just need a GraphQL db in the cloud, I don't want to manage anything by myself
it's always problems with those guys 😞
I wish I had selected other vendor
b
🤷‍♂️
p
I wasted so much time on their bugs
and total lack of clear communication
b
do they offer support for graph cool? I think this slack is for prisma
p
I think as you said, they rebranded
so this is the only thing
b
bummer

If you want to spin up something new and managed, I'd look at AWS App Sync
s
there is a graphcool-framework channel
but it's pretty much inactive
I've sent multiple emails to support, but never got an answer. The real-time subscriptions are not working properly, they do not really seem to care anymore, to bad, I loved there service...will avoid Prisma at any cost.
p
have you tried AppSync or how is it called from AWS?
does AppSync provide similar functionalities? Such as perrmisions?
It looks like they got 4,5M$ funding and don't bother to fix bugs... that's ridiculus
s
Looking at AppSync right now, it was in beta a few months back, seems to be generally available now
p
I mean, I assume Prisma includes whole parts of GraphCool, so same bugs are replicated
I'd gladly pay for working GraphCool
s
what issues are you having with graphcool?
p
sometimes there are no logs
the 2nd issue was today. I've got 3 services, dev, test, prod. they are identical, only data is different
I exported from prod and tried importing it into dev
CloudFron error 😞
and my DB is very small, zip file around 200 KB
CloudFront
also a lot of bugs in github which are there for years
some involve security
s
open an issue here https://github.com/prisma/graphcool-framework, maybe if we pile up some issues they will be more reactive
from april last year, it breaks support for
relay
- they don't care
basically what I like about GC is that whan I don't develop it works well and I can forget about it
but as soon as I need to change something there is always problem - like today with an import which broke my dev db
s
yeah, they've had there fair share of outages as well, but they usually fix them quickly... except for now, maybe it's a subtle way of saying "start migration to prisma", i don't know
p
I don't have a problem with migration, but I don't belive them anymore
I suspect it will be just more problems
I selected GraphCool becasue of two reasons: graphql & managed
I don't have time to deal with db hosting and other problems
