Parser raises an error for null Boolean Type

Following a commit GitHub introduced to their schema yesterday gql can no longer parse its schema, as it fails on this null Boolean type:

{'name': 'isVerified', 'description': 'Filter by if the domain is verified.', 'type': {'kind': 'SCALAR', 'name': 'Boolean', 'ofType': None}, 'defaultValue': 'null'}

GitHub claims this change is in accordance with the GraphQL standards documentation:

By default, every type is nullable - it’s legitimate to return null as any of the scalar types. Use an exclamation point to indicate a type cannot be nullable, so String! is a non-nullable string.

Therefore, it appears that a null default value for a boolean is valid in GraphQL.

Currently the code specifically ignores null values.

@leszekhanusz You’re right, I will start using the pre-release version of gql, as it seems to solve the issue.

Yep, anyway it is graphql-core which is parsing the schema so you should create an issue there
