I'm using node.js, express and apollo-server-express. With the following code:
const express = require('express');
const { ApolloServer, gql } = require('apollo-server-express');
const typeDefs = gql`
type Book { title: String author: String }
type Query { books: [Book] }
type Mutation { change_title(new_title: String): Book }
`;
const books = [
{ title: 'The Awakening', author: 'Kate Chopin', },
{ title: 'City of Glass', author: 'Paul Auster', },
];
const resolvers = {
Query: { books: () => books, },
Mutation: {
change_title: (parent, args) => {
books[0].title = args.new_title
return books[0]
}
}
};
const server = new ApolloServer({ typeDefs, resolvers, });
const app = express();
server.applyMiddleware({ app });
app.listen({ port: 4000 }, () =>
console.log(`Server ready at http://localhost:4000${server.graphqlPath}`)
);
When I enter the mutation in the GraphQL Playground, like so:
{
change_title(new_title: "Something") {
title
}
}
I get the following error: "Cannot query field "change_title" on type "Query"."
My goal is to be able to run mutations. If I should be doing it another way or if there's eror, please let me know. Thanks!
GraphQL playground treats all types as queries unless otherwise specified.
mutation {
change_title(new_title: "Something") {
title
}
}
