How should a Rest/GraphQL data source be used in Phoenix?
I’ve discovered Strapi as an amazing tool for defining, populating, and serving a REST or GraphQL data source:
To access and use this data in Phoenix, what are some options? Is there an Ecto adapter that will expose it as a repo alongside a Postgres repo? Or alternatively, a higher level abstraction for the entities that can be retrieved? Maybe an Ash data layer?
EDIT: Some options I’m finding as I look:

I’d use a combination of:
- GraphQL client: GitHub - team-telnyx/brains: Brains is a GraphQL client in Elixir · GitHub or GitHub - uesteibar/neuron: A GraphQL client for Elixir · GitHub or GitHub - balexand/gql: Simple GraphQL client for Elixir. · GitHub
- Query string builder: GitHub - billperegoy/graphql_builder: Library to build GraphQL queries and mutations from Elixir structs · GitHub or GitHub - bonfire-networks/grumble: An Elixir DSL for generating GraphQL queries · GitHub

Rest - Ecto embedded schemas + jason + (poison or your preferred http lib). I think that’s a decent combination.
