Defined in:
lib/graphql/schema/possible_types.rb

Overview

Find the members of a union or interface within a given schema.

(Although its members never change, unions are handled this way to simplify execution code.)

Internally, the calculation is cached. It’s assumed that schema members don’t change after creating the schema!

Examples:

Get an interface’s possible types

possible_types = GraphQL::Schema::PossibleTypes(MySchema)
possible_types.possible_types(MyInterface)
# => [MyObjectType, MyOtherObjectType]
