Spring Boot GraphQL Schema Object

A Data Object holds other Objects, which can be either Wrapper or User Defined Objects. GraphQL provides Object Types to hold and wrap a Type Object. The Object Type can be used with Type and Input as well.

GraphiQL

GraphQL provides an inbuild UserInterface GraphiQL, which can be accessed via http://localhost:8080/graphiql or access GraphQL via Postman, in the query section add the below query

query FindAllApple {
    findAllApple {
        appleId
        available
        appleName
        vendor {
            vendorId
            vendorName
            available
        }
    }
}

For Mutation, use the below query

mutation AddApple {
    addApple(
        appleVO: {
            available: true
            appleName: "a"
            vendor: { vendorName: "Vendor A", available: false }
        }
    ) {
        appleId
        available
        appleName
        vendor {
            vendorId
            vendorName
            available
        }
    }
}
