amplify codegen creates incomplete statements

Using amplify version 1.1.7

When I run amplify codegen on my schema, it ends up skipping some of the fields in one model and does not include all of the fields for a related model for the “list” statement. I can always go back and manually edit them, but it is a pain to need to do this every time.

So 2 issues/questions.

1. It seems to me that it should include all of the model fields in the return results for a list or get query.
2. I would like it to include as many levels deep as I’ve configured it to go for the query result items as well.

Here is the model from Schema.graphql:

type Instrument 
    @model 
    @auth(
    rules: [
      {allow: owner},
      {allow: owner, ownerField: "owner", mutations: [create, update, delete], queries: [get, list]},
      {allow: groups, groups: ["Admin"]}
    ]) 
{
  id: ID!
  owner: String
  name: String!
  category: InstrumentCategory!
  status: InstrumentStatus
  type: InstrumentType!
  manufacturer: String
  model: String
  color: String
  serialNumber: String
  yearManufactured: String
  description: String
  purchasedAt: String
  purchaseLocation: String
  purchasePrice: Float
  purchaseDate: AWSDate
  soldPrice: Float
  soldDate: AWSDate
  images: [S3Object] @connection(name: "InstrumentImages")
}

type S3Object @model {
    id: ID!
    bucket: String!
    key: String!
    region: String!
    order: Int
    instrument: Instrument @connection(name:"InstrumentImages")
}

When I call amplify codegen, the queries look like this:

export const getInstrument = `query GetInstrument($id: ID!) {
  getInstrument(id: $id) {
    id
    owner
    name
    category
    status
    type
    manufacturer
    model
    color
    serialNumber
    yearManufactured
    description
    purchasedAt
    purchaseLocation
    purchasePrice
    purchaseDate
    soldPrice
    soldDate
    images {
      nextToken
    }
  }
}
`;
export const listInstruments = `query ListInstruments(
  $filter: ModelInstrumentFilterInput
  $limit: Int
  $nextToken: String
) {
  listInstruments(filter: $filter, limit: $limit, nextToken: $nextToken) {
    items {
      id
      owner
      name
      manufacturer
      model
      color
      serialNumber
      yearManufactured
      description
      purchasedAt
      purchaseLocation
      purchasePrice
      purchaseDate
      soldPrice
      soldDate
    }
    nextToken
  }
}
`;

Note that for listInstruments, the category and status fields are missing as is images and for getInstrument, the properties of S3Object are missing.

Every time I do amplify codegen I need to go back and manually fix these items.

Graphqlconfig.yml does have maxDepth set to 2 so I would expect that the images fields are filled in for those queries.

I found that just using amplify codegen --max-depth 6 does not work.

I had to do amplify codegen configure and set the max-depth there and then it worked like a charm.

OK, as a user, this is problematic. In order to consistently get the same information back from calls (I always want instruments to include the images) I need to set maxLevel to 4 for listInstruments to work but then calls like getInstrument will include the instrument data multiple times. My recommendation would be to include the items as the level for the thing that includes it so that the getInstruments and listInstruments calls would be much more in sync with the data that is returned.
