.graphql file isn't being detected

I followed the Getting Started guide to try this but the only way to get a response is to pass a QueryContainer reading the .graphql file instead of passing the builder with the @GraphQuery annotation

I checked the demo app and it’s done the ‘same’ way the guide says. Tried moving GetMarketplaceListing.graphql to another dir and still worked. Renaming the file made stopped working.

This was tested on AVD API 30 and on a Redmi Note 5 Android 10.

NOT Working MainActivity:

val query = QueryContainerBuilder().putVariable("idMal", 40060)
val anime = apiService.get(query)

ApiService (interface):

@POST("/graphql")
@GraphQuery("GetAnime")
suspend fun get(@Body builder: QueryContainerBuilder): Response<GraphContainer<Data>>

Body is null and the errorBody is ‘Must provide query string’

Working MainActivity:

val query = QueryContainerBuilder().setQuery(assets.open("graphql/queries/GetAnime.graphql").bufferedReader().readText())
.putVariable("idMal", 40060).build()
val anime = apiService.get(query)

ApiService (interface):

@POST("/graphql")
suspend fun get(@Body builder: QueryContainer): Response<GraphContainer<Data>>

This way the request is done fine and I get the data that I want.

GetAnime.graphql

query GetAnime($idMal: Int) {
    anime(idMal: $idMal) {
        id
        idMal
        idAl
    }
}

It worked! Thanks 😃

I think I found your problem, in provideApiService

    .addConverterFactory(GraphConverter.create(context, ILogger.Level.VERBOSE))
    .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create(GsonBuilder().create()))

Swap the order of graph converter and gson converter, otherwise retrofit will default to the Gson and you should see more loggs

N.B GraphConverter has factory methods to initialise everything you need e.g. GraphConverter.create(context, ILogger.Level.VERBOSE)

If you need GsonConverterFactory for some other endpoints you could simply extend GraphConverter and override requestBodyConverter to provide a different converter for anything else that is not annotated with GraphQuery on the methodAnnotations
