Towards release 1.0

[MichalLytek]

Today, I released the first Release Candidate version of major 1.0.0 🎉
https://www.npmjs.com/package/type-graphql/v/1.0.0-rc.1
It is also distributed as a new major version on the default latest tag.

This release contains a lot of breaking changes, so please read the release notes carefully 👀
https://github.com/MichalLytek/type-graphql/releases/tag/v1.0.0-rc.1

The 1.0.0 milestone is finished in 97% - it contains of 87 closed issues! 😵
https://github.com/MichalLytek/type-graphql/milestone/3
The work that has to be also done before final release is to write the announcement post about the 1.0.0 release, after 2 years of developing TypeGraphQL ☺️

Feel free to update your apps and let me know how the new version works for you and what improvements you would like to see in the upcoming 1.0.0 release!

And don't forget to support the project as its ongoing development is possible only thanks to the support by the community ❤️

Especially if you are using it commercially - just to ensure that the project which your product relies on is actively maintained and improved 💪

@MichalLytek I upgraded, and everything worked just fine for me. I had been on the 0.18 beta releases. Great work!

I guess graphql-15.0.0 is now supported? I thought that was some ways off...good to see!

[smolinari]

Awesome stuff! Keep up the great work!

Awesome, will try it on my current project!

Yesterday, v1.0.0-rc.2 has been released 🚀
It contains 2 last-minute fixes but also 2 small features:
https://github.com/MichalLytek/type-graphql/releases/tag/v1.0.0-rc.2

Please give the v1.0.0 RC release a try and feel free to report some bugs or lacking important features - this way we can improve the things before final 1.0 release 😉

hi,
have upgrade to rc2 today, as well as graphql V15.0.0 and graphql-tools 6.0.9.
I lost some inheritance in the @interfacetype. For example some typeorm entites were extending a base entity with a column "id".
Compiling was ok but at run time I got an error Interface: [interface] expects “fieldname” but [type] does not provide it.
I change the interfaces and type definition to add the missing field and it worked ok.

Don't know if this issue is related to rc2 or to the graphql V15.0.0

Good job anyway, thks a lot

[MichalLytek]

@jeromeSH26 please isolate the issue and create a minimal reproducible code example

[jeromeSH26]

here is a simplifed example (most of the interfaces and objects are in different files, I have put then all together for the example)

import { InterfaceType, Field, ID, ObjectType } from "type-graphql";
import { BaseEntity, Column, Index, Generated, Entity, PrimaryColumn } from "typeorm";

export interface IBasicEntityId {
	id: string;
};

@InterfaceType()
export abstract class GqlBasicId implements IBasicEntityId  {
	@Field(() => ID, { nullable: false })
	id: string;
};

export interface ITheEntity extends IBasicEntityId {
	field1: string;
	field2: boolean;
};

@InterfaceType()
export abstract class GqlTheEntity extends GqlBasicId
	implements ITheEntity{
       // uncommenting the next  2 lines fix the issue. But in v0.17.6 and graphql 14.6.0 no need these 2 lines. Inheritance was ok
	// @Field(() => ID, { nullable: false }) 
	// id: string; 
	@Field({ nullable: false })
	field1: string;
	@Field(() => Boolean, { nullable: true })
	field2: boolean;
	};

// typeorm defs
export class MyBaseEntity extends BaseEntity {
	@Column()
	@Index()
	@Generated("uuid")
	id: string;
};

//final objects

@ObjectType({ implements: GqlTheEntity })
@Entity({
	name: "test",
})
export class TheEntity extends MyBaseEntity
	implements ITheEntity{
	@PrimaryColumn({
		type: "character varying",
		length: 20,
		nullable: false,
		default: "",
	})
	field1: string;

       @Column({
		type: "bool",
		nullable: false,
		default: true,
	})
	field2: boolean;
};

error :
Interface field GqlTheEntity .id expected but TheEntity does not provide it.

@jeromemeichelbeck Looks like it might be related to #373 and I don't have an idea how to solve that issue properly 😕

[jeromeSH26]

maybe, but it's weird because it was working fine before. I will try to downgrade graphql and/or type-graphql to find which one create this regression.

it's not a big deal however although it reduces the scope of inheritance for large or shared librairies.

[mqdeandrade]

Going from RC2 to RC3 uncovered some hidden errors in my entity definitions that took a bit of head scratching to find. I had defined a field as @Field(_type => Payment, { nullable: true }) with a typeorm OneToMany and a field resolver defined as @FieldResolver(_returns => [Payment]). The error is pretty obvious when you look at them side by side but it was working happily on RC2. Going to RC3 threw a 'non-nullable field can't be null error' when querying the parent entity. The fix was simply removing the @field as per the docs because the @FieldResolver was doing the job anyway, although I could have just defined the _type as [Payment] as well which would have worked too.

[MichalLytek]

@mqdeandrade Thanks for sharing this info.
As stated in the release notes, RC3 has removed the legacy array inference, so now explicit array syntax ([Item]) is required. The first releases didn't support the array [Item] syntax, only isArray: true option, so now I'm just removing the old deprecated, not used in docs approach as a part of cleaning before the 1.0.0 release.

graphql-subscriptions which type-graphql v1-rc3 relies on does not support graphql v15.

Fresh "type-graphql": "^1.0.0-rc.3" with graphql v15 "graphql": "^15.3.0",

I get a warning npm WARN [email protected] requires a peer of graphql@^0.10.5 || ^0.11.3 || ^0.12.0 || ^0.13.0 || ^14.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.

They have an open issue for graphl v15 support from April 2nd, still unresolved. apollographql/graphql-subscriptions#221

Perhaps type-graphql should stick with graphql v14 for now? Or can I safely ignore this warning?

[MichalLytek]

@ofbeaton Yes, you can safely ignore this warning - breaking changes in v15 were really small and minor, all my test suite with subscriptions work without any issues with v15 😉
