Autocomplete for required variables

See original GitHub issue

I’ve just created a createUser mutation and there are about 30 potential fields, around 20 are required.

As I type I get told that I’m missing lots of required fields like so:

I think it’d be nice for autocomplete to add all of the required input fields so you can change booleans and fill in strings really quick. Right now it’s a case of looking at the error tooltip and adding each of them manually

@intellix eek that’s painful. I can think of a couple of ways to help with this case - one is to add a button that fills all required fields with some temporary values (e.g. “” for strings, false for booleans, {} for objects, and etc).

Another is to automatically suggest variables when the query gets run, inferring from the default values for input types from your schema. Do your required fields have default values?
