View Source DSL: AshGraphql.Resource

This Ash resource extension adds configuration for exposing a resource in a graphql.

graphql

Configuration for a given resource in graphql

Nested DSLs

Examples

graphql do
  type :post

  queries do
    get :get_post, :read
    list :list_posts, :read
  end

  mutations do
    create :create_post, :create
    update :update_post, :update
    destroy :destroy_post, :destroy
  end
end

Options

Name Type Default Docs
type * atom The type to use for this entity in the graphql schema
derive_filter? boolean true Set to false to disable the automatic generation of a filter input for read actions.
derive_sort? boolean true Set to false to disable the automatic generation of a sort input for read actions.
encode_primary_key? boolean true For resources with composite primary keys, or primary keys not called `:id`, this will cause the id to be encoded as a single `id` attribute, both in the representation of the resource and in get requests
relationships list(atom) A list of relationships to include on the created type. Defaults to all public relationships where the destination defines a graphql type.
field_names Keyword.t A keyword list of name overrides for attributes.
hide_fields list(atom) A list of attributes to hide from the api
argument_names Keyword.t A nested keyword list of action names, to argument name remappings. i.e `create: [arg_name: :new_name]`
keyset_field atom If set, the keyset will be displayed on all read actions in this field. It will be `nil` unless at least one of the read actions on a resource uses keyset pagination or it is the result of a mutation
attribute_types Keyword.t A keyword list of type overrides for attributes. The type overrides should refer to types available in the graphql (absinthe) schema. `list_of/1` and `non_null/1` helpers can be used.
attribute_input_types Keyword.t A keyword list of input type overrides for attributes. The type overrides should refer to types available in the graphql (absinthe) schema. `list_of/1` and `non_null/1` helpers can be used.
primary_key_delimiter String.t "~" If a composite primary key exists, this can be set to determine delimiter used in the `id` field value.
depth_limit integer A simple way to prevent massive queries.
generate_object? boolean true Whether or not to create the GraphQL object, this allows you to manually create the GraphQL object.
filterable_fields list(atom) A list of fields that are allowed to be filtered on. Defaults to all filterable fields for which a GraphQL type can be created.

graphql.queries

Queries (read actions) to expose for the resource.

Nested DSLs

Examples

queries do
  get :get_post, :read
  read_one :current_user, :current_user
  list :list_posts, :read
end

graphql.queries.get

get name, action

A query to fetch a record by primary key

Examples

get :get_post, :read

Options

Name Type Default Docs
action * atom The action to use for the query.
identity atom The identity to use for looking up the record. Pass `false` to not use an identity.
allow_nil? boolean true Whether or not the action can return nil.
modify_resolution mfa An MFA that will be called with the resolution, the query, and the result of the action as the first three arguments. See the [the guide](/documentation/topics/modifying-the-resolution.html) for more.
name atom :get The name to use for the query.
type_name atom Override the type name returned by this query. Must be set if the read action has `metadata` that is not hidden via the `show_metadata` key.
metadata_names Keyword.t [] Name overrides for metadata fields on the read action.
metadata_types Keyword.t [] Type overrides for metadata fields on the read action.
show_metadata list(atom) The metadata attributes to show. Defaults to all.
as_mutation? boolean false Places the query in the `mutations` key instead. Not typically necessary, but is often paired with `as_mutation?`. See the [the guide](/documentation/topics/modifying-the-resolution.html) for more.

graphql.managed_relationships

Generates input objects for manage_relationship arguments on resource actions.

Nested DSLs

Examples

managed_relationships do
  manage_relationship :create_post, :comments
end

Options

Name Type Default Docs
auto? boolean Automatically derive types for all arguments that have a `manage_relationship` call change.

graphql.managed_relationships.managed_relationship

managed_relationship action, argument

Instructs ash_graphql that a given argument with a manage_relationship change should have its input objects derived automatically from the potential actions to be called.

For example, given an action like:

actions do
create :create do
argument :comments, {:array, :map}

change manage_relationship(:comments, type: :direct_control) # <- we look for this change with a matching argument name
end
end

You could add the following managed_relationship

graphql do
...

managed_relationships do
managed_relationship :create, :comments
end
end

By default, the {:array, :map} would simply be a json[] type. If the argument name is placed in this list, all of the potential actions that could be called will be combined into a single input object. If there are type conflicts (for example, if the input could create or update a record, and the create and update actions have an argument of the same name but with a different type), a warning is emitted at compile time and the first one is used. If that is insufficient, you will need to do one of the following:

1.) provide the :types option to the managed_relationship constructor (see that option for more) 2.) define a custom type, with a custom input object (see the custom types guide), and use that custom type instead of :map 3.) change your actions to not have overlapping inputs with different types

Since managed relationships can ultimately call multiple actions, there is the possibility of field type conflicts. Use the types option to determine the type of fields and remove the conflict warnings.

For non_null use {:non_null, type}, and for a list, use {:array, type}, for example:

{:non_null, {:array, {:non_null, :string}}} for a non null list of non null strings.

To remove a key from the input object, simply pass nil as the type.

Options

Name Type Default Docs
argument * atom The argument for which an input object should be derived.
action atom The action that accepts the argument
lookup_with_primary_key? boolean If the managed_relationship has `on_lookup` behavior, this option determines whether or not the primary key is provided in the input object for looking up.
lookup_identities list(atom) Determines which identities are provided in the input object for looking up, if there is `on_lookup` behavior. Defalts to the `use_identities` option.
type_name atom The name of the input object that will be derived. Defaults to `___input`
types `any` A keyword list of field names to their graphql type identifiers.
