Change controller type name

[LouisMT]

Using the following code:

class SomethingController : GraphController {
  [Mutation]
  public async Task<IGraphActionResult> Create() {
    return Ok(...);
  }
}

The type name of the root mutation something becomes Mutation_Something.

I was wondering if the name of this type can be changed. I couldn't find anything about this in de docs so far.

Hey @LouisMT ,

Currently, no, its not possible to influence that name. It's on the roadmap though. There are some nuances to deal with the naming of the intermediate types that get created for longer field templates since the controller doesn't actually make it into the schema.

For example, this creates three object types on your schema, not just one Mutation_Something.

class SomethingController : GraphController 
{
      [Mutation("/field1/field2/field3"]
      public async Task<IGraphActionResult> Create() 
      {
           return Ok(...);
      }
}

But it is a solvable problem. No guarantees yet on when it would make it in, there are some higher priority items I'm trying to finish up for August. But I'll do my best to make it sooner than later.

Cheers,
Kevin

Thanks!

It's no big deal, I was just wondering if I overlooked it in the docs.

I really like this library so far, keep it up! 😃
