Compound keys aren't currently supported in the federation plugin, but are allowed per the Apollo spec. This patch adds support by modifying the federation plugin to handle a list of key fields on an entity rather than a single top-level key field. It will now look for "findEntityNameByKeyField1AndKeyField2..." in the resolver, rather than the original "FindEntityNameByKeyField". The change does not support more complicated FieldSets in the key, such as nested selections.

We are using this internally with Go services that use compound keys in federation.

References:

I have:

  • Added tests covering the bug / feature (see testing)
  • Updated any relevant documentation (see docs) - I didn't find anything docs specific to federation.

Summary:
Compound keys are not yet supported for federation in gqlgen. This diff adds support by modifying the federation plugin to handle a list of key fields on an entity rather than a single top-level key field. It will now look for "find<EntityName>By<KeyField1><KeyField2>..." in the resolver, rather than the original "Find<EntityName>By<KeyField>". The federation plugin does not yet support more complicated FieldSets in the key, such as nested selections.

References:
- Apollo federation spec: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/federation/federation-spec/
- Selection sets: https://graphql.github.io/graphql-spec/draft/#sec-Selection-Sets

Will update https://phabricator.khanacademy.org/D59469 with multiple key changes.

Test Plan:
- Tested Go GQL services using both single- and multiple-key federated types (assignments and content-library in webapp/services)
- Ran gqlgen on non-federated services in webapp to ensure regular generation still works (donations service)
- WIP: creating unit tests; will submit as separate diff

Summary: The current federation test schema only has types with single keys (or no keys). Adding a type with multiple keys, including one non-String key, to test compound key federation code gen.

Test Plan: - go test
