2) What if there was a super graphQL structure: mutation($model: String!, $mutation: String!, $id: String!, $changingVar: String!){ updateModel(model : $model, mutation: $mutation, id: $id, changingVar: $changingVar){ id } } This may simplify api gql tag use for using models that are alike but need to be different. Or maybe I'm just thinking too much...

@brad.barnes ,two things

ids are unique across all projects even

we use https://github.com/graphcool/cuid-java

you can use node(id) query

@nilan Thanks! With node(id) can you return the model type?

no you have to use fragments I guess

your second point sounds interesting but it's not something yet possible. at some point we might think of an npm package for example That offers this

@nilan Yeah, I was thinking it would save the front end developer from a lot of: if object.type === "something": huge gql tag... repeat...

hmm so what is the final query you are running? seems you want to fetch multiple things at once?

@nilan Just one query from a reusable react list element component that serves multiple models...just thinking too much

@nilian Then again I do like to put all my gql tags into a node export object and call them in my component files like: ModelApi.mutate.updateModelFieldById

ahh I see

is it a static set of different models?

No, just the the tags.

@nilan later I call them with graphql(ModelApi.query.allModels...or plug in the vars that the tag asks for

With node(id) can you return the model type?

Couldn't you do

node(id) { __typename }

that is, the same way introspection works

Yup

right!

@brad.barnes ^^

@nilan @sorenbs do you guys have an apple tv remote at your office by any chance?

nope, sorry

You guys never sleep 😂

hey guys, thought you might find this interesting. I was struggling which composer to pick (i.e. komposer2 vs recompose vs react-apollo's compos), this I think settles it. https://dev-blog.apollodata.com/simplify-your-react-components-with-apollo-and-recompose-8b9e302dea51#.gyghodvdk

Nice! Also saw that and remember our little conversation about that 🙂

@aryan glad it was helpful! The

react-apollo

compose function is provided as a convenience in case you don't want to import recompose

@sashko thanks for the clarification on react-apollo
