How to exclude fields? about graphql-compose-mongoose

[nodkz]

For removing fields from output:

UserTC.removeField('password');
UserTC.removeField(['password', ...otherFields]);

For removing some sub-fields from input argument:

UserTC.getResolver('updateOne').getArg('record').removeField('password');

Completely remove input argument:

UserTC.getResolver('updateMany'). removeArg(['skip', 'limit']);

@nodkz is it possible to pick fields(removeOtherFields ?)?

[nodkz]

Yep, removeOtherFields
May be better to rename this method. pickFields also not a good name.

console.log(userTypeComposer.getResolver('findOne').getArg('filter').removeField);
console.log(userTypeComposer.getResolver('findOne').getArg('filter').removeArg);

Arguments has InputType and served by InputTypeComposer which has removeField method https://github.com/nodkz/graphql-compose/blob/master/src/inputTypeComposer.js

Try to debug via console.dir what you recieve via getArg

const customizationOptions = {};
const userTypeComposer = composeWithMongoose(UserModel, customizationOptions);

userTypeComposer.removeOtherFields(['_id', 'name', 'email', 'status', 'role']);

const extendedResolver = userTypeComposer.getResolver('pagination').addFilterArg({
    name: 'search',
    type: 'String',
    description: 'Search by regExp',
    query: (rawQuery, value, resolveParams) => {
        if (value !== null && value !== undefined && value !== '') {
            Object.assign(rawQuery, {
                $or: [
                    { name: new RegExp(value, 'i') },
                    { email: new RegExp(value, 'i') },
                ],
            });
        }
    },
});

extendedResolver.name = 'pagination';
userTypeComposer.addResolver(extendedResolver);

GQC.rootQuery().addFields({
    userById: userTypeComposer.getResolver('findById'),
    users: userTypeComposer.getResolver('pagination'),
});

GQC.rootMutation().addFields({
    userCreate: userTypeComposer.getResolver('createOne'),
});

console.dir(userTypeComposer.getResolver('findOne').getArg('filter').removeField);
console.dir(userTypeComposer.getResolver('findOne').getArg('filter').removeArg);

Agr, sorry for late response.

getArg - returns arg config { type, description, deprecationReason, defaultValue }

For working with type need to use getArgTC which returns InputTypeComposer which can modify arg type.

@nodkz console.log(userTypeComposer.getResolver('pagination').getArgTC('sort'));

[1] Error: Cannot get InputTypeComposer for arg 'sort' in resolver User.pagination(User.pagination). This argument should be InputObjectType, but it has type 'GraphQLEnumType'

This is expected behavior. InputTypeComposer can work only on complex input types with fields. Enum is a scalar type (like String, Int, Boolean).

Frankly graphql-compose does not allow to modify Enum types. I want to add EnumTypeComposer for adding/removing values from GraphQLEnum but I do not have any ETA when it will land.

Anyway you may manually edit Enums in such way https://github.com/nodkz/graphql-compose/blob/bb834cb03c43989571881e4aa27bef2194918829/src/resolver.js#L514-L536

@nodkz thanks, please keep it issue until you add EnumTypeComposer, or I will try add it by myself.

[nodkz]

Close this issue due "nothing to-do with graphql-compose-mongoose".

Open new issue about EnumTypeComposer implementation in right place/package graphql-compose/graphql-compose#79
Please keep track there.

How would I exclude a sub-field?
My query looks like this:

query {
    UserMany {
        _id
        firstName
        lastName
        local {
            password
        }
}

I tried the following and neither seems to work:

UserTC.removeField('local.password');
UserTC.removeField('local').removeField('password');

[nodkz]

@chanm003
UserTC.getFieldOTC('local').removeField('password').

PS. Removing fields via dot-notation is a good feature request. I will add it later.
