I have this input type and I would like to add a default Value to one of the fields. I want to add 0 to the value field inside the ExampleInput.
type ExampleType {
value: Int
another: String
}
type Mutation {
example(input: ExampleInput): ExampleType
}
input ExampleInput {
value: Int
another: String
}
Any ideas?
It looks like the grammar allows default values on input object types, so you can declare
input ExampleInput {
value: Int = 0
another: String
isAvailable: Boolean = false
}
The spec is clear that default values exist and explains how they get used (first bullet under "Input Coercion").
(Whether any specific tooling supports this is probably variable: graphql.org had an informal version of the IDL for quite a while before it was actually in the spec, and I have the impression some libraries haven't caught up to the released spec yet.)
