Handle lists and non-null properly
See original GitHub issueHello,
Right now gql-gen doesn’t check if ! (non-nullable) applies to a list or elements inside the list:
As a result, the list is considered required even when it isn’t:
| GraphQL type | Expected Typescript Type | Actual Generated Type |
|---|---|---|
[String] |
(string | null)[] | null |
string[] | null |
[String]! |
(string | null)[] |
string[] |
[String!] |
string[] | null |
string[] |
[String!]! |
string[] |
string[] |
More generally, GraphQL allows arbitrary nesting of list and non-null modifiers according to http://graphql.org/learn/schema/#lists-and-non-null .
