question(docs): how to merge typeDefs & resolvers

[iamclaytonray]

I'm slightly confused at the paramters passed to GraphQLModule. When importing modules, it works but then I wonder what the purpose of the typeDefs and resolvers fields are for, if the imports field internally manages merging type definitions and resolvers.

I also know that I could import all of my resolvers and type definitions using array notation on each module. IE: resolvers: [ArticleModule['resolvers'], UserModule['resolvers']],

I know this is a question but I've spent a bit of time puzzled on this so this question will turn into a PR for updating docs. Thanks!

Here's my main.ts (entry point)

import { GraphQLModule } from '@graphql-modules/core';
import { ApolloServer } from 'apollo-server';
import { ArticleModule } from './modules/ArticleModule';
import { UserModule } from './modules/UserModule';

const { schema, context } = new GraphQLModule({
  typeDefs: [],
  resolvers: [],
  imports: [ArticleModule, UserModule],
});

const server = new ApolloServer({
  schema,
  context,
});

server.listen().then(({ url }) => {
  console.log(`🚀  Server ready at ${url}`);
});

If you are just merging together two modules (ArticleModule, UserModule) and you don't need additional typeDefs or resolvers as part of the new schema, then you don't need to specify them.

const { schema, context } = new GraphQLModule({
  imports: [ArticleModule, UserModule],
});
