Limit number of characters in a GraphQL query document.

This plugin helps you to prevent DoS attacks by hard-limiting the size of the query document.

Provided by GraphQL Armor

How to use?

Install the plugin:

npm install @escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit

pnpm add @escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit

yarn add @escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit

bun add @escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit

Then, add it to your plugins:

mesh.config.ts

import { characterLimitPlugin } from '@escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit'
import { defineConfig } from '@graphql-mesh/serve-cli'
 
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: () => [
    characterLimitPlugin({
      maxLength: 15000 // Number of characters allowed | Default: 15000
    })
  ]
})

💡

We recommend using the Max Tokens Plugin instead of this one. - This plugin does not limit the size of input variables. - This plugin relies on a parser plugin to works and access query document through the context.
