A third resolver — find many by +IDs, with `ids`, `sortBy`, `order`, `skip`, and `limit` but no `filter` — +backs list-valued relation fields such as `Post.authors`; it is not mounted +as its own top-level query. + +## Order of application + +For a list query, Flatbread applies the arguments in this order: + +1. `filter` narrows the collection. +2. `sortBy` sorts the surviving records by one field. +3. `order: DESC` reverses the sorted list (`ASC` is the default). +4. `skip` and `limit` slice the result (see the slice caveat under + [`skip` and `limit`](#skip-and-limit)). + +## `filter` + +`filter` takes a JSON object whose shape mirrors the path to the value you +want to compare. The deepest key that does not hold another object names the +comparison operation; its value is the target to compare against. The syntax +follows a subset of MongoDB's query style. + +```graphql +query HighlyRated { + allPosts(filter: { rating: { gt: 80 } }) { + id + title + rating + } +} +``` + +That filter keeps every post whose `rating` field is greater than 80. Nested +paths work the same way: `{ postMeta: { rating: { gt: 80 } } }` compares +`postMeta.rating` on each record. + +### Combining filters: peer paths AND together + +Peer keys inside one filter object must **all** match. This is a logical AND, +not a union: + +```graphql +query FilteredPosts { + allPosts(filter: { title: { wildcard: "*tion" }, rating: { gt: 80 } }) { + title + } +} +``` + +A post appears in the result only when its title ends in `tion` **and** its +rating exceeds 80. There is no OR combinator across paths; run two queries or +use `in` on one field when you need one. + +### The 14 operations + +| Operation | Meaning | Notes | +| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | +| `eq` | `fieldValue === target` | Strict equality. | +| `ne` | `fieldValue !== target` | Strict inequality. | +| `lt`, `lte`, `gt`, `gte` | `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` | Both sides must be a string, number, or boolean; anything else compares as `false` (the record is excluded). | +| `in` | `target.includes(fieldValue)` | Target must be an array; throws otherwise. | +| `nin` | `!target.includes(fieldValue)` | Target must be an array; throws otherwise. | +| `includes` | field contains the target | Field must be an array or string; throws otherwise. String matching follows `String.prototype.includes`. | +| `excludes` | field does not contain the target | Same field requirements as `includes`. | +| `exists` | `target ? field != undefined : field == undefined` | Loose check: treats `null` and `undefined` alike. | +| `strictlyExists` | `target ? field !== undefined : field === undefined` | Strict check: `null` counts as existing. | +| `regex` | `target.test(field)` | See the `regex` limits below. | +| `wildcard` | loose string matching | Case-insensitive; accepts one pattern string or an array of patterns; uses the [matcher](https://github.com/sindresorhus/matcher) API. | + +For `regex` and `wildcard`, a string-array field matches when **any** element +matches. + +When the filter path is exactly the top-level `id` field, Flatbread +normalizes both sides for `eq`, `ne`, `in`, and `nin`, so IDs compare +consistently with how records are keyed. + +### `regex` limits + +The `regex` implementation requires an actual JavaScript `RegExp` object as +the target value and throws otherwise. Standard GraphQL JSON variables cannot +carry a `RegExp` instance, so `regex` only works where the caller constructs +the filter in JavaScript and can pass a real `RegExp` — it is not usable from +a plain GraphQL document with JSON variables. Use `wildcard` for loose +matching from GraphQL clients. + +### Dates + +Filters cannot infer date strings and compare them as `Date` values. A `Date` +object passed programmatically may work but is not extensively tested. To fix +this properly, add type checks and comparators in +`packages/core/src/utils/sift.ts` and open a pull request. + +## `sortBy` and `order` + +`sortBy` accepts one root-level field name and sorts ascending by default. +Records whose field values are not sortable against each other (not both +strings, numbers, or booleans) keep their relative order. `order` accepts +`ASC` or `DESC`; `DESC` reverses the list after sorting. + +## `skip` and `limit` + +`skip` drops the first `n` records. `limit` bounds the result. Both accept +integers. + +One implementation caveat matters when you combine them: the result is +computed as `records.slice(skip, limit)`, so **when `skip` is set, `limit` +acts as the slice end index, not a page size**. For example, `skip: 10, limit: 15` returns records 11 through 15 (five records), and `skip: 10, limit: 5` returns nothing. Without `skip`, `limit: 5` returns the first five +records as you would expect. Account for this when paging: to fetch a page of +`n` records after skipping `s`, pass `limit: s + n`. + +## Field overrides + +Overrides define a custom GraphQL type or resolver on top of a field in one +collection — for example to +[optimize images](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/tree/main/packages/resolver-svimg) +or reshape a value at read time. + +`overrides` is an array on each **content entry**, not a global config key: + +```js +export default defineConfig({ + source: sourceFilesystem(), + transformer: transformerMarkdown(), + content: [ + { + path: 'content/markdown/authors', + collection: 'Author', + overrides: [ + { + // The source field name. + field: 'name', + // The GraphQL type to expose. + type: 'String', + // Transform the value before returning it. + resolve: (name) => String(name).toUpperCase(), + }, + ], + }, + ], +}); +``` + +Each override takes `field`, `type`, `resolve`, and optional `args` and +`description`. The `resolve` function receives the raw field value plus an +object with `source`, `context`, and `args`. + +### Supported `field` path syntax + +| Pattern | Meaning | +| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ | +| `nested.object` | A field inside a nested object | +| `an.array[]` | Map over every element of an array field | +| `an.array[]with.object` | Map over an array and reach into each element's object | + +The Next.js example config +([`examples/nextjs/flatbread.config.js`](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/blob/main/examples/nextjs/flatbread.config.js)) +exercises all three patterns on its `OverrideTest` collection and uses +`createSvImgField` from `@flatbread/resolver-svimg` on the `Author` +collection. + +## `fieldNameTransform` + +`fieldNameTransform` is a top-level config function that rewrites every field +name before schema generation. The default removes spaces by capitalizing the +letter that follows each one (`date joined` becomes `dateJoined`); it changes +nothing else. Override it when you need a different global naming rule: + +```js +export default defineConfig({ + // Replace all spaces in field names with an underscore. + fieldNameTransform: (fieldName) => fieldName.replace(/\s/g, '_'), + // ... +}); +``` + +The transform applies to schema fields, override paths, and `refs` lookups +consistently, so a `refs` key declared with the raw field name still resolves +after transformation. diff --git a/packages/flatbread/README.md b/packages/flatbread/README.md index 85514897..42e284ec 100644 --- a/packages/flatbread/README.md +++ b/packages/flatbread/README.md @@ -16,233 +16,169 @@

Any leaf field can be used in a filter. - -The syntax for `filter` is based on a subset of [MongoDB's query syntax](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/query/). - -#### `filter` syntax - -A filter is composed of a nested object with a shape that matches the path to the value you want to compare on every entry in the given collection. The deepest nested level that does not have a JSON object as its value will be used to build the comparison where the `key` is the comparison operation and `value` is the value to compare every entry against. - -#### Example - -```js -filter = { postMeta: { rating: { gt: 80 } } }; - -entries = [ - { id: 1, title: 'My pretzel collection', postMeta: { rating: 97 } }, - { id: 2, title: 'Debugging the simulation', postMeta: { rating: 20 } }, - { - id: 3, - title: 'Liquid Proust is a great tea vendor btw', - postMeta: { rating: 99 }, - }, - { id: 4, title: 'Sitting in a chair', postMeta: { rating: 74 } }, -]; -``` - -The above filter would return entries with a rating greater than 80: - -```js -result = [ - { id: 1, title: 'My pretzel collection', postMeta: { rating: 97 } }, - { - id: 3, - title: 'Liquid Proust is a great tea vendor btw', - postMeta: { rating: 99 }, - }, -]; -``` - -#### Supported `filter` operations - -- `eq` - equal - - This is like `filterValue === resultValue` in JavaScript -- `ne` - not equal - - This is like `filterValue !== resultValue` in JavaScript -- `in` - - This is like `filterValue.includes(resultValue)` in JavaScript - - Can only be passed an array of values which pass strict comparison -- `nin` - - This is like `!filterValue.includes(resultValue)` in JavaScript - - Can only be passed an array of values which pass strict comparison -- `includes` - - This is like `resultValue.includes(filterValue)` in JavaScript - - Can only be passed a single value which passes strict comparison -- `excludes` - - This is like `!resultValue.includes(filterValue)` in JavaScript - - Can only be passed a single value which passes strict comparison -- `lt`, `lte`, `gt`, `gte` - - This is like `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` respectively - - Can only be used with numbers, strings, and booleans -- `exists` - - This is like `filterValue ? resultValue != undefined : resultValue == undefined` - - Accepts `true` or `false` as a value to compare against (`filterValue`) - - For checking against a property that could be both `null` or `undefined` -- `strictlyExists` - - This is like `filterValue ? resultValue !== undefined : resultValue === undefined` - - Accepts `true` or `false` as a value to compare against (`filterValue`) - - Checking against a property for `undefined` -- `regex` - - This is like new RegExp(filterValue).test(resultValue) in JavaScript -- `wildcard` - - This is an abstraction on top of `regex` for loose string matching - - Case insensitive - - Uses [matcher](https://github.com/sindresorhus/matcher) and matcher's [API](https://github.com/sindresorhus/matcher#usage) - -Caveats: - -- Currently cannot infer date strings and then compare `Date` types in filters - - should work if you dynamically pass in a `Date` object from your client, though not extensively tested - - to fix this, add argument `typeof` checks and the matching comparator functions in [`packages/core/src/utils/sift.ts`](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/blob/main/packages/core/src/utils/sift.ts), then open a pull request - -#### Combining multiple filters - -You can union multiple filters together by adding peer objects within your filter object to point to multiple paths. - -#### Example - -Using the `entries` from the previous example, let's combine multiple filters. - -```graphql -query FilteredPosts { - allPosts( - filter: { title: { wildcard: "*tion" }, postMeta: { rating: { gt: 80 } } } - ) { - title - } -} -``` - -Results in: - -```js -result = [{ title: 'My pretzel collection' }]; -``` - -### `sortBy` - -Sorts by the given field.

For scripts and -framework setup, use the +For a complete app, run the [Next.js example](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/tree/main/examples/nextjs). +It shows posts linked to authors, GraphQL document code generation with +`flatbread codegen`, and the prototype generated TypeScript read API. The +generated helpers still execute through GraphQL today. + +## How Flatbread works + +1. A source plugin finds files. +2. A transformer turns each file into a record. +3. `content` entries in `flatbread.config.js` group records into named + collections, such as `Post` or `Author`. +4. `refs` connect ID fields in one collection to records in another. +5. Flatbread validates the graph and exposes read interfaces: GraphQL, + generated TypeScript, or Proof's bounded CLI commands. + +One modeling note saves confusion later: a plain string list in frontmatter, +such as `tags: [cats, measurements]`, stays a scalar `[String]` field. It is +not a relation. If tags need their own records shared across posts, model a +`Tag` collection and point a `refs` field at it. The +[glossary](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/blob/main/docs/glossary.md) +defines collections, records, IDs, relations, and cardinality. + +When you want typed results in application code, run `flatbread codegen`. It +generates TypeScript types and typed document nodes for your `.graphql` +operations, plus a prototype collection-shaped read API for plain reads +without a query document at each call site. Filters, sorting, pagination, and +field overrides are documented in the +[query reference](https://github.com/FlatbreadLabs/flatbread/blob/main/docs/query-reference.md). + +## What Flatbread is not -## Field overrides - -Field overrides allow you to define custom GraphQL types or resolvers on top of fields in your content.
