Is it possible to have a define a field as Date or JSON in my graphql schema ?
type Individual {
id: Int
name: String
birthDate: Date
token: JSON
}
actually the server is returning me an error saying :
Type "Date" not found in document.
at ASTDefinitionBuilder._resolveType (****node_modules\graphql\utilities\buildASTSchema.js:134:11)
And same error for JSON...
Any idea ?
Have a look at custom scalars: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/graphql-tools/scalars.html
create a new scalar in your schema:
scalar Date
type MyType {
created: Date
}
and create a new resolver:
import { GraphQLScalarType } from 'graphql';
import { Kind } from 'graphql/language';
const resolverMap = {
Date: new GraphQLScalarType({
name: 'Date',
description: 'Date custom scalar type',
parseValue(value) {
return new Date(value); // value from the client
},
serialize(value) {
return value.getTime(); // value sent to the client
},
parseLiteral(ast) {
if (ast.kind === Kind.INT) {
return parseInt(ast.value, 10); // ast value is always in string format
}
return null;
},
}),
