Inherits:
BaseType show all
Defined in:
lib/graphql/object_type.rb

Overview

This type exposes fields on an object.

Examples:

defining a type for your IMDB clone

MovieType = GraphQL::ObjectType.define do
  name "Movie"
  description "A full-length film or a short film"
  interfaces [ProductionInterface, DurationInterface]

  field :runtimeMinutes, !types.Int, property: :runtime_minutes
  field :director, PersonType
  field :cast, CastType
  field :starring, types[PersonType] do
    argument :limit, types.Int
    resolve ->(object, args, ctx) {
      stars = object.cast.stars
      args[:limit] && stars = stars.limit(args[:limit])
      stars
    }
   end
end

#all_fieldsArray<GraphQL::Field>

These fields don’t have instrumenation applied

Returns:

  • (Array<GraphQL::Field>)

    All fields, including ones inherited from interfaces

  • Get fields with instrumentation

end

#get_field(field_name) ⇒ GraphQL::Field

This fields doesnt have instrumenation applied

Returns:

  • (GraphQL::Field)

    The field definition for field_name (may be inherited from interfaces)

  fields[field_name] || interface_fields[field_name]
end

#implements(interfaces, inherit: false) ⇒ Object

Declare that this object implements this interface. This declaration will be validated when the schema is defined.

Parameters:

  • interfaces (Array<GraphQL::Interface>)

    add a new interface that this type implements

  • inherits (Boolean)

    If true, copy the interfaces’ field definitions to this type

Deprecated.

Use implements instead of interfaces.

This method declares interfaces for this type AND inherits any field definitions

Parameters:
