Defined in:
lib/graphql/language/visitor.rb

Overview

Depth-first traversal through the tree, calling hooks at each stop.

Examples:

Create a visitor counting certain field names

class NameCounter < GraphQL::Language::Visitor
  def initialize(document, field_name)
    super(document)
    @field_name = field_name
    @count = 0
  end

  attr_reader :count

  def on_field(node, parent)
    # if this field matches our search, increment the counter
    if node.name == @field_name
      @count += 1
    end
    # Continue visiting subfields:
    super
  end
end

# Initialize a visitor
visitor = NameCounter.new(document, "name")
# Run it
visitor.visit
# Check the result
visitor.count
# => 3

Defined Under Namespace

Classes: DeleteNode, NodeVisitor

Constant Summary collapse

SKIP =
Deprecated.

Use super to continue the visit; or don’t call it to halt.

If any hook returns this value, the GraphQL::Language::Visitor stops visiting this node right away

:_skip
DELETE_NODE =

When this is returned from a visitor method, Then the node passed into the method is removed from parent’s children.

Instance Method Details

#[](node_class) ⇒ NodeVisitor

Deprecated.

see on_ methods, like #on_field

Get a NodeVisitor for node_class

Examples:

Run a hook whenever you enter a new Field

visitor[GraphQL::Language::Nodes::Field] << ->(node, parent) { p "Here's a field" }

Parameters:

  • node_class (Class) —

    The node class that you want to listen to

Returns:

# File 'lib/graphql/language/visitor.rb', line 61

def [](node_class)
  @visitors[node_class] ||= NodeVisitor.new
end

#on_abstract_node(node, parent) ⇒ Array?

The default implementation for visiting an AST node. It doesn’t do anything, but it continues to visiting the node’s children. To customize this hook, override one of its make_visit_methodes (or the base method?) in your subclasses.

For compatibility, it calls hook procs, too.

Parameters:

Returns:

  • (Array, nil) —

    If there were modifications, it returns an array of new nodes, otherwise, it returns nil.
