12/27/2018, 4:01 PMYou can use some like tsdoc. But we already document the graphql schema very well so anyone can understand the schema using graphql-playgorund

12/27/2018, 4:07 PMYes, you're right, but it's not the documentation for the developer but for the end user. 🙂
Example:
The user requests "@Bot help createUser"
The answer :
"@Bot Hello
createUser <FirstName> <LastName> <email> <company>
"
And in the backend, it's translated
`` `
prisma.createUser (data: {firstname, lastname, email, company})
`` `
Prisma has already created everything (interfaces, schema), it would be a shame to recreate the same model above. 🙂
That's why I'm trying to interpret the schema to deduce the arguments of the command

12/27/2018, 4:08 PMThe "simplest" solution I've found, at the moment, is to make an introspectionQuery gql query on the backend
David Casier
12/27/2018, 4:09 PMit seems less complicated than starting TS interfaces
h
Harshit
12/27/2018, 4:09 PMYes that would be easiest and most reliable way. We also use introspection query in graphql-playground to generate schema docs
Harshit
12/27/2018, 4:09 PMyou can refer the implementation there if you want

12/27/2018, 4:10 PMOk, that reassures me. thanks for taking the time to respond

12/27/2018, 4:11 PMhere is an implementation of schema fetcher https://github.com/prisma/graphql-playground/blob/master/packages/graphql-playground-react/src/components/Playground/SchemaFetcher.ts

David Casier
12/27/2018, 4:11 PMToo bad there is no query __Field (name: "") 🙂

Harshit
12/27/2018, 4:12 PMyou can the field name using
__typenamed
David Casier
12/27/2018, 4:12 PMHa, prisma also uses apollo tools? 🙂
h
Harshit
12/27/2018, 4:13 PMyes, apollo for frontend stuff and as a graphql client. We don't reinvent things that doesn't need to be reinvented 🙂
Harshit
12/27/2018, 4:16 PMso you can use a introspectionQuery from graphql. Then use buildClientSchema to convert that introspection to a graphql schema and then use parse or print from graphql according to your usecase

12/27/2018, 4:19 PMHey, buildClientSchema is exactly what I needed !
