02/16/2019, 12:31 PMHi,
Prisma client internally uses that. In the near future we might add alias based batching to it
b
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 3:41 PMThanks! So could it be used to build a batched schema stitching api gateway?
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 3:44 PMWhat do you mean by alias based batching?
h
Harshit
02/16/2019, 3:45 PMIt batches requests to the API so I don't think you should have any problem using it as a client but not server side implications
b
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 3:45 PMSo you advise against using it in a server-side service?

Aliased based batching explanation
Harshit
02/16/2019, 3:49 PMYou can definitely use it on server (Prisma does it)

Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 3:59 PMThank you! I am going to try and use it!
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:10 PMOkay I've looked into it
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:11 PMAnd I have a couple of ideas / questions
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:11 PMWhen do you plan to add support for "aliased based" batching?
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:15 PMAnd what about adding a mode where you can transform many "oneQuery(id: "<id>")" queries into a manyQuery(id: ["<id1>", "<id2>", "<id3>"])

02/16/2019, 4:16 PMI can't give an ETA, but if you can work on this that would be awesome. This project is not the topmost priority right now, please understand
b
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:16 PMAnd if things are named "properly" (using the prisma style) it could even be applied automatically!
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:17 PMOkay, I understand. What do you think about this last proposal?
h
Harshit
02/16/2019, 4:18 PMWe automatically do that in the prisma core ie server
b
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 4:19 PMAnd could it be used on the layer we (users of prisma) put on top of prisma?
h
Harshit
02/16/2019, 4:20 PMAre you talking about the package or the query optimization
b
Biel Simon
02/16/2019, 6:05 PMYes, the query optimization
