Shorthand imports and require.extensions about graphql-tools

[helfer]

In a discussion I just had with @stubailo, we decided to implement the simplest version for now, which is to write and export an array of Strings. The only thing we have to do is de-duplicate the strings at the end. I'll make a PR implementing this shortly.

Have to export functions that return an array (instead of just exporting an array directly) to allow cyclical imports, but everything else stays the same.

[stubailo]

Yeah I think that would be fine! It's not really Babel though since it's not js right? It would be a separate tool probably that people would link into their gulp setup or whatever.

Here's what it's going to look like:

\\ task.js
export default [`
  type Task {
    id: ID
    text: String
  }
`]; 

// list.js
import Task from './task';
export default [`
  type List {
    id: ID
    name: String
    tasks: [Task]
  }`,
  Task
];

// query.js
import List from './list';
export default [`
  type Query {
    list(id: ID): List
    all_lists: [List]
  }`,
  List
];

// schema.js
import Query from './query';
export default [`
  schema {
    query: Query
  }
`, 
  Query
];

// server.js
import { generateSchema } from 'graphql-tools';
import resolveFunctions from './resolvers';
import schema from './schema';

const executableSchema = generateSchema(schema, resolveFunctions);

// more logic here ...

[stubailo]

I would have expected:

// query.js
import List from './list';
export default [`
  type Query {
    list(id: ID): List
    all_lists: [List]
  }`,
  ...List
];

Are we flattening arrays?

Haha, I was just going to edit my post right now :D I implemented it with flattenDeep, but for some reason it doesn't feel right to me, so I changed it to apply the spread like you wrote.
