Define connection types that provide a standard mechanism for slicing and paginating result sets. For information about the connection model, see the Relay Cursor Connections Specification at https://facebook.github.io/relay/graphql/connections.htm. ## Connection Given an object type, eg: ``` object :pet do field :name, :string end ``` You can create a connection type to paginate them by: ``` connection node_type: :pet ``` This will automatically define two new types: `:pet_connection` and `:pet_edge`. We define a field that uses these types to paginate associated records by using `connection field`. Here, for instance, we support paginating a person's pets: ``` object :person do field :first_name, :string connection field :pets, node_type: :pet do resolve fn pagination_args, %{source: person} -> connection = Absinthe.Relay.Connection.from_list( Enum.map(person.pet_ids, &pet_from_id(&1)), pagination_args ) {:ok, connection} end end end end ``` The `:pets` field is automatically set to return a `:pet_connection` type, and configured to accept the standard pagination arguments `after`, `before`, `first`, and `last`. We create the connection by using `Absinthe.Relay.Connection.from_list/2`, which takes a list and the pagination arguments passed to the resolver. Note: `Absinthe.Relay.Connection.from_list/2`, like `connectionFromArray` in the JS implementation, expects that the full list of records be materialized and provided -- it just discards what it doesn't need. Planned for future development is an implementation more like `connectionFromArraySlice`, intended for use in cases where you know the cardinality of the connection, consider it too large to materialize the entire array, and instead wish pass in a slice of the total result large enough to cover the range specified in the pagination arguments. Here's how you might request the names of the first `$petCount` pets a person owns: ``` query FindPets($personId: ID!, $petCount: Int!) { person(id: $personId) { pets(first: $petCount) { pageInfo { hasPreviousPage hasNextPage } edges { node { name } } } } } ``` `edges` here is the list of intermediary edge types (created for you automatically) that contain a field, `node`, that is the same `:node_type` you passed earlier (`:pet`). `pageInfo` is a field that contains information about the current view; the `startCursor`, `endCursor`, `hasPreviousPage`, and `hasNextPage` fields. ### Pagination Direction By default, connections will support bidirectional pagination, but you can also restrict the connection to just the `:forward` or `:backward` direction using the `:paginate` argument: ``` connection field :pets, node_type: :pet, paginate: :forward do ``` ### Customizing Types If you'd like to add additional fields to the generated connection and edge types, you can do that by providing a block to the `connection` macro, eg, here we add a field, `:twice_edges_count` to the connection type, and another, `:node_name_backwards`, to the edge type: ``` connection node_type: :pet do field :twice_edges_count, :integer do resolve fn _, %{source: conn} -> {:ok, length(conn.edges) * 2} end end edge do field :node_name_backwards, :string do resolve fn _, %{source: edge} -> {:ok, edge.node.name |> String.reverse} end end end end ``` Just remember that if you use the block form of `connection`, you must call the `edge` macro within the block. ## Creating Connections This module provides two functions that mirror similar Javascript functions, `from_list/2,3` and `from_slice/2,3`. We also provide `from_query/2,3` if you have Ecto as a dependency for convenience. Use `from_list` when you have all items in a list that you're going to paginate over. Use `from_slice` when you have items for a particular request, and merely need a connection produced from these items. ## Schema Macros For more details on connection-related macros, see `Absinthe.Relay.Connection.Notation`.
