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. | |

|
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.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 ` | ||
types |
`any`
|
A keyword list of field names to their graphql type identifiers. |
