Can I do dynamic queries?

[mrange]

Hi

I hope this hasn't been already in the docs or in the issues but I didn't find anything.

First, I am a big fan of what you do and especially Strawberry shake. It works great for us.

We do have a bit of a need for dynamic queries and was wondering if you have any tips around that. We interact with an ERP system that have 12 dimensions which meaning depends on the config.

We can fetch batches like this

query GetBatches() {
  company(123) {
    batch() {
      items {
        batchNo
        dimension1
        dimension2
        dimension3
      }
    }
  }
}

Let's say in this case the dimension1 is department, dimension2 is project and dimension3 is order.

Now for another customer dimension4 is department, dimension7 is project and dimension1 is order. Then the query should look like this:

query GetBatches() {
  company(123) {
    batch() {
      items {
        batchNo
        dimension4
        dimension7
        dimension1
      }
    }
  }
}

If we talked to the GQL directly we could do some string interpolation but I don't know of some way to inject that into Strawberry Shake.

What we do today is requesting all 12 dimensions and sort it out in C# but that has a few drawbacks to us.

So I am just hoping for some tips and tricks on how we could do this smarter.

Hope I made some sense.
