Pothos GraphQL error: PothosSchemaError: Ref Query has not been implemented

Question

I'm using Pothos GraphQL to create the schema and queries for my graphQL API. I'm using Prisma as the ORM and @pothos/plugin-prisma as the plugin. When I start the graphql-yoga server, I get the error below.

file:///C:/Users/user/Documents/Projects/project1/node_modules/@pothos/core/src/config-store.ts:391
    }
     ^

This is builder.ts:

import PrismaPlugin from "@pothos/plugin-prisma";
import type PrismaTypes from '@pothos/plugin-prisma/generated';
import { prisma } from "./db.js";
import SchemaBuilder from "@pothos/core";
import {DateResolver} from "graphql-scalars";

export const builder = new SchemaBuilder<{
    Scalars: {
        Date: { Input: Date; Output: Date };
    };
    PrismaTypes: PrismaTypes;
}>({
    plugins: [PrismaPlugin],
    prisma: {
        client: prisma,
    },
});

builder.addScalarType("Date",DateResolver,{});

The schema.ts just imports the builder object and the two graphQL models:

import { builder } from "./builder.js";
import "./models/Job.js";
import "./models/JobCostCode.js";

export const schema = builder.toSchema({});

index.ts creates and starts the server:

import { createYoga } from 'graphql-yoga'
import { createServer } from 'node:http'
import { schema } from "./schema.js";

const yoga = createYoga({ schema });

const server = createServer(yoga);

server.listen(4000, () => {
    console.log('  Server is running on http://localhost:4000');
});

I tried looking at the Pothos GraphQL Docs but would not find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Your schema is lacking a root query type.

Use this code to create a query type:

builder.queryType({
  description: 'The query root type.',
});

Your query type should probably also have some fields:

builder.queryType({
  description: 'The query root type.',
  fields: t => ({
    helloWorld: t.field({ resolve: () => "Hello World" }),
  }),
});

// Or somewhere else

builder.queryField('helloWorld', t => t.field({
  resolve: () => "Hello World",
}));
