I am using neo4j-graphql-js library to auto generate resolvers from the schema. For a node in the schema(Employee) i need to get a particular node property(empid) from a rest call as we plan to remove that property from our neo4j database due to privacy issues. I am trying to write a custom resolver for that field . I have added @neo4j directive to that field in the schema for neo4j to ignore it. I need to make a rest call that accepts a parameter named uid and returns the corressponding empid. This iuid is a property of Employee node and so is present in my neo4j DB. The issue is while writing the resolver the root objects only holds the filed values accesed in the query. So if iuid is not part of the query i'm unable to get it's value in the root obj. Here is my employee node: -
type Employee{
empId: String @neo4j_ignore
buCode: String
iuid: String
name: String
projectCode: String
roleCode: String
grade: String
mailid: String
duCode: String
txtmailid_new: String
Here is my resolver where for my i am returning a dummy string instead of making a rest call: -
const resolvers={
Employee: {
empId: async (obj, params, ctx, resolveInfo) => {
console.log(obj.iuid);
var result="dummy_emp_id";
return result;
}
}
};
const schema = makeAugmentedSchema({ typeDefs, resolvers} );
const server = new ApolloServer({ schema, context: { driver } });
server.listen(3003, '127.0.0.1').then(({ url }) => {
console.log(`GraphQL API ready at ${url}`);
});
Here is my query:- {
Employee(first : 10)
{
empId
name
}
}
I want to access all the value of all the field of the employee node so i can get the iuid.The console log returns undefined as the root object only has the queried field. I don't know even if it is possible and if not is there any workaround this?
