The project established a frequent binary release cadence beginning with v0.14.0 in September 2022 and reaching v0.40.2 in March 2024. Its official mdBook grew into the main guide for installation, compilation, and language features. ### Adoption history GraphQXL distributes precompiled Linux and macOS binaries, a Homebrew formula, and a Node wrapper installable with npm or Yarn. This allows the same compiler to fit both system-package and JavaScript build-tool workflows. ### How it is used Users pass a `.graphqxl` schema to `graphqxl`; the compiler writes the corresponding `.graphql` schema. The extended syntax is aimed at large schema-first services that need reusable types, imports, and language-independent code organization. ### Why package nerds care GraphQXL is notable as a language-neutral schema preprocessor delivered as a small native executable rather than a framework plugin. Its release assets cover common Linux and macOS architectures, while node-graphqxl bridges the binary into npm-based builds. ### Timeline - 2022: The public repository is created in August. - 2022: v0.14.0 begins the recorded GitHub release series in September. - 2024: v0.40.2 is released in March with six binary assets. ### Related projects - GraphQL supplies the base schema language that GraphQXL extends and targets. - node-graphqxl integrates the compiler with Node package and build workflows. ### Sources - - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger risk:** blue / medium - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** graphqxl - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://pkg.so/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Secret-risk packages](https://pkg.so/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://pkg.so/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [rust](https://pkg.so/brew/rust/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [rover](https://pkg.so/brew/rover/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, graphql. - [ragel](https://pkg.so/brew/ragel/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, code-generation, compiler, developer-tools. - [quicktype](https://pkg.so/brew/quicktype/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, code-generation, developer-tools, graphql. - [asn1c](https://pkg.so/brew/asn1c/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, code-generation, compiler, developer-tools. - [dhall-bash](https://pkg.so/brew/dhall-bash/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, code-generation, compiler, developer-tools. - [llvm](https://pkg.so/brew/llvm/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, compiler, developer-tools. - [fbthrift](https://pkg.so/brew/fbthrift/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, code-generation, developer-tools. - [llvm@20](https://pkg.so/brew/llvm-20/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, compiler, developer-tools. - [goctl](https://pkg.so/brew/goctl/) - Local metadata places this package in an adjacent workflow.
