Add value to Array field in mutation

[kbrandwijk]

If you have a Type with a [String!] field, it might be useful to get a mutation syntax that supports adding to the existing Array.

Please see this proposal for our suggested implementation: https://github.com/graphcool/framework/issues/1275

This feature requires a fundamental change to the data structure for scalar lists, so it would be very valuable to get feedback on the suggested functionality as soon as possible, so we can make sure the new data structure supports all required features.

Is this solved?

Update.

For further readers you can add value to array of relation in this way:

await context.prisma.updateUser({
     data: {takenOffers: {connect: [{id}]}},
     where: {id: userId}
});

@gustawdaniel please help, I still face this problem, can I see your data model? and what your id look like

//Here is my createRole mutation
async createRole(parent, args, { prisma, request }, info) {
getUserId(request);
const { permissions, name } = args.data;
return prisma.mutation.createRole({
data: {
name,
permissions: {
connect: [{ id: permissions }]
}
}
});
}

//Here is my createRoleInput
input CreateRoleInput {
name: String!
permissions: [ID!]!
}

//Here is what I'm sending from GraphQL Playground
mutation {
createRole(data:{
name: "Super Admin"
permissions: ["cjyviw68f160l0785xgy61evq", "cjywrqnab1hwt0785t6ztxj02"]
})
{
id
}
}

@onyegood It is because of you have array of ID in your model of input but you assigning this array to single id in mutation.

Of course in your QraphQL Playground example everything should work.

In backend code you can try

async createRole(parent, args, { prisma, request }, info) {
   getUserId(request);
   const { permissions, name } = args.data;
   return prisma.mutation.createRole({
      data: {
         name,
         permissions
      }
   });
}

or

async createRole(parent, args, { prisma, request }, info) {
   getUserId(request);
   const { permissions, name } = args.data;
   return prisma.mutation.createRole({
      data: {
         name,
         permissions: {connect: permissions.map( p => ( {id: p} ) ) }
      }
   });
}

I assuming that you have

permissions =  ["cjyviw68f160l0785xgy61evq", "cjywrqnab1hwt0785t6ztxj02"]
