PostGraphile plugin that removes all foreign key fields from the GraphQL schema while still allowing foreign relationships to be created. Primary key fields are not removed from the GraphQL schema.
npm install postgraphile-remove-foreign-key-fields-plugin
This PostGraphile plugin removes all foreign key fields from the GraphQL schema while still allowing foreign relationships to be created. Primary key fields (which may also be used as a foreign key) are not removed from the GraphQL schema.
Example
``graphql`
type Person {
id
firstName
lastName
addressId
address {
id
street
city
state
postalCode
}
}
This extension will remove addressId from the Person type in an effort to simplify the schema.
`graphql`
type Person {
id
firstName
lastName
address {
id
street
city
state
postalCode
}
}
You can still get the address id through the Address type.
Person->address->id.
Install npm package.
`shell`
npm install postgraphile-remove-foreign-key-fields-plugin
Add plugin to postgraphile.
`js
import express from "express";
import { postgraphile } from "postgraphile";
import { RemoveForeignKeyFieldsPlugin } from "postgraphile-remove-foreign-key-fields-plugin";
const app = express();
// Add PostGraphile middleware.
app.use(
postgraphile(postgres://username:password@localhost:5432/postgres, {
appendPlugins: [RemoveForeignKeyFieldsPlugin],
}),
);
// Start up server.
app.listen(3000, "localhost", 511, () => {
logger.info(🚀 Server listening at http://localhost:3000);``
