How GraphQL Code Formatter Works

Format your GraphQL code in three simple steps

1

Paste Your Code

Copy your unformatted or messy GraphQL code and paste it into the input editor. The formatter supports standard GraphQL syntax and common formatting patterns.

2

Click Format

Hit the "Format Code" button and watch as our intelligent formatter instantly restructures your code with proper indentation, spacing, and GraphQL best practices.

3

Copy or Download

Your beautifully formatted code appears in the output panel. Copy it to your clipboard with one click or download it as a .graphql file for immediate use in your projects.

GraphQL Formatting Best Practices

Writing clean, readable, and properly structured GraphQL queries and schemas ensures easier debugging, better collaboration, and maintainable code.

1. Use Consistent Indentation

Maintain a consistent indentation style:

  • Use 2 spaces per level consistently.
  • Proper indentation improves readability and reduces parsing errors.

2. Keep Queries and Mutations Organized

Group fields logically and consistently:

  • List related fields together.
  • Helps understand the structure of queries and mutations quickly.

3. Use Meaningful Names

Name queries, mutations, and fragments clearly:

  • Descriptive names improve readability and maintainability.
  • Supports better debugging and team collaboration.

4. Avoid Excessive Nesting

Keep nested queries manageable:

  • Deeply nested queries can be hard to read.
  • Consider breaking them into fragments or multiple queries.

5. Include Comments Wisely

Use comments to clarify complex queries or schema sections:

  • Use # for single-line comments in GraphQL.
  • Keep comments short, relevant, and maintainable.

6. Validate GraphQL Syntax

Always validate queries, mutations, and schemas:

  • Prevent runtime errors and invalid requests.
  • Use GraphQL linting tools or IDE plugins for accuracy.

Before Formatting

query GetUsers{users{id name age posts{id title content}}active status}

After Formatting

query GetUsers {
  users {
    id
    name
    age
    posts {
      id
      title
      content
    }
  }
  active
  status
}

Why GraphQL Formatting Matters

Properly formatted GraphQL improves readability, prevents syntax errors, and makes queries easier to debug and maintain.

  • Readable queries and mutations reduce mistakes.
  • Organized fields improve collaboration and understanding.
  • Valid GraphQL ensures consistent API interactions.
  • Encourages professional and consistent formatting habits.
