Class: GraphQL::Schema::RelayClassicMutation

Inherits:
Mutation show all
Defined in:
lib/graphql/schema/relay_classic_mutation.rb

Overview

Mutations that extend this base class get some conventions added for free:

  • An argument called clientMutationId is always added, but it’s not passed to the resolve method. The value is re-inserted to the response. (It’s for client libraries to manage optimistic updates.)
  • The returned object type always has a field called clientMutationId to support that.
  • The mutation accepts one argument called input, arguments defined in the mutation class are added to that input object, which is generated by the mutation.

These conventions were first specified by Relay Classic, but they come in handy:

  • clientMutationId supports optimistic updates and cache rollbacks on the client
  • using a single input: argument makes it easy to post whole JSON objects to the mutation using one GraphQL variable ($input) instead of making a separate variable for each argument.

See Also:

  • for an example, it's basically the same.

.input_object_class(new_class = nil) ⇒ Class

The base class for generated input object types

Parameters:

  • new_class (Class) (defaults to: nil) —

    The base class to use for generating input object definitions

Returns:

  • (Class) —

    The base class for this mutation’s generated input object (default is InputObject)

  if new_class
    @input_object_class = new_class
  end
  @input_object_class || (superclass.respond_to?(:input_object_class) ? superclass.input_object_class : GraphQL::Schema::InputObject)
end

.input_type(new_input_type = nil) ⇒ Class

Returns The generated InputObject class for this mutation’s input

Parameters:

  • new_input_type (Class, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    If provided, it configures this mutation to accept new_input_type instead of generating an input type

Returns:

  • (Class) —

    The generated InputObject class for this mutation’s input
