A small lib to help extract information about scalars from a graphql schema
It iterates through all types and input types and extracts the scalars, whether they are nullable and their descriptions and places them in a module to include and get information about.
This is particularly useful if you would like to autogenerate things like tables or form fields and want them to be auto-configured by the graph schema.
Ideally, this lib is used in combination with saving your schema from your backend.
Example in package.json:
"scripts": {
...
"graphql:save-schema": "some-script-to-save-your-schema && npm run graphql:generate-assets",
"graphql:generate-scalars": "graphql-generate-scalar-assets -s path/to/schema.json --output-path ./src/constants/scalars.js"
...
All options can be seen by running:
graphql-generate-scalar-assets -h
You can do:
import { UserStatuses } from '../path/to/scalars.js';
if (UserStatuses.type == "Boolean") {
...A good amount of this code has been lifted from: graphql-generate-flow-schema-assets this isn't really a fork, so hasn't been forked in the true sense of the word.
