Ben KraftandGitHub e88305ecbd Add support for abstract-typed named fragments (#79)
## Summary:
In previous commits I added support to genqlient for interfaces,
inline fragments, and, most recently, named fragments of concrete
(object) type.  This leaves only named fragments of interface type!
Like other named fragments, these are useful for code-sharing,
especially if you want some code that can handle the same fields of
several different types.

As seems to be inevitable with genqlient, this was mostly pretty
straightforward, although there turned out to be surprisingly many
places we needed to add some handling; almost anywhere that touches
interfaces *or* named fragments needed some updates.  But it's all
hopefully fairly clear code.

As a part of this change I made three semi-related improvements:
1. I refactored the handling of descriptions (i.e. GoDoc), because it
   was getting more and more confusing and duplicative.  I'm still not
   sure how much of it it makes sense to inline vs. separate, but I
   think this is better than it was.  This resulted in some minor
   changes to descriptions, generally in the direction of making things
   more consistent.
2. I bumped the minimum Go version to 1.14 so we can guarantee support
   for duplicate interface methods.  These are useful for
   abstract-in-absstract spreads; we generate an interface for the
   fragment, and (if the fragment-type implements the scope-type) we
   embed it into the interface we generate for its spread-context, and
   if the two have a duplicated field we thus duplicate the method.  It
   wouldn't be impossible to support this on 1.13 (maybe just by
   omitting said embed) but it didn't seem worth it.  This also removes
   a few special-cases in tests.
3. I added a bunch of code to better format syntax errors in the
   generated code (which we see from `gofmt`).  This is mostly just an
   internal improvement; I wrote it because I got annoyed while hunting
   down a few such errors..

Fixes, at last, #8.

Ben KraftandGitHub f99c10d6fd Add support for concrete-typed named fragments (#75)
## Summary:
In previous commits I added support to genqlient for interfaces and
inline fragments.  This means the only query structures that remain are
named fragments and their spreads, e.g.
```
fragment MyFragment on MyType { myField }
query MyQuery { getMyType { ...MyFragment } }
```
Other than mere completionism, these are potentially useful for code
sharing: you can spread the same fragment multiple places; and then
genqlient can notice that and generate the same type for each.  (They
can even be shared between different queries in the same package.)

In this commit I add support for named fragments of concrete
(object/struct, not interface) type, spread into either concrete or
abstract scope.  For genqlient's purposes, these are a new "root"
type-name, just like each operation, and are then embedded into the
appropriate struct.  (Using embeds allows their fields to be referenced
as fields of the containing type, if convenient.  Further design
considerations are discussed in DESIGN.md.)

This requires new code in two main places (plus miscellaneous glue),
both nontrivial but neither particularly complex:
- We need to actually traverse both structures and generate the types
  (in `convert.go`).
- We need to decide which fragments from this package to send to the
  server, both for good hyigene and because GraphQL requires we send
  only ones this query uses (in `generate.go`).
- We need a little new wiring for options -- because fragments can be
  shared between queries they get their own toplevel options, rather
  than inheriting the query's options.

Finally, this required slightly subtler changes to how we do
unmarshaling (in `types.go` and `unmarshal.go.tmpl`).  Basically,
because embedded fields' methods, including `UnmarshalJSON`, get
promoted to the parent type, and because the JSON library ignores their
fields when shadowed by those of the parent type, we need a little bit
of special logic in each such parent type to do its own unmarshal and
then delegate to each embed.  This is similar (and much simpler) to
what we did for interfaces, although it required some changes to the
"method-hiding" trick (used for both).  It's only really necessary in
certain specific cases (namely when an embedded type has an
`UnmarshalJSON` method or a field with the same name as the embedder),
but it's easier to just generate it always.  This is all described in
more detail inline.

This does not support fragments of abstract type, which have their own
complexities.  I'll address those, which are now the only remaining
piece of #8, in a future commit.

Ben KraftandGitHub 6c86eed770 Clean up, test, and document ContextType and ClientGetter options (#77)
## Summary:
ContextType is in use at Khan as a part of our ka-context system; it
basically just lets you configure the type to pass as the `ctx` argument
to genqlient helpers (or say to omit such an argument).  ClientGetter I
wrote thinking we might use it; then we didn't (because we have a few
different clients we may use) but it's not much code and may be helpful
to others.  In this commit I clean up, document, and add tests for both
options.

The cleanup is mainly for ClientGetter, which was kind of broken before
because it was a Go snippet but couldn't specify imports.  I was
thinking maybe you want to be able to write `ctx.Something()`, but I
just don't see how to make it work, so I made it a function of context,
which is probably the better idea anyway.

Additionally, I improved the documentation for both, and added tests for
those and several other config options that weren't completely tested.

Fixes #5.

Ben KraftandGitHub 6fdb170b99 Fix type-naming in the presence of interfaces, and refactor it a lot (#71)
## Summary:
When adding support for interfaces, I did not do the type-names as I
intended: they came out to be `MyFieldMyType`, not
`MyInterfaceMyFieldMyType`, which is inconsistent, but not strictly
wrong.  But once supporting fragments, this is also now incorrect.
(Exactly why is described in the comments inline.)  In this commit, in
any case, I fix it.

To do that, I finally did the last of the refactors I've been hoping to
do but unable to successfully implement, which is to make the type-name
and type-name-prefix management clearer.  In the past it was kind of
spread out, and each caller would have to pass the right name into
`convertDefinition`, which go quite unwieldy.  Now, the case that really
wanted that -- the operation toplevel -- just does it own thing; and the
main name-generation code  is factored out into a separate file with
tests, and with a long comment that goes into all the details of the
algorithm that the design-doc didn't cover.  (I even had some fun using
a linked list to implement the prefix-stack!)

This allowed me to fix the above bug fairly easily -- actually the fix
was pretty much automatic once I understood how to organize things.
There is one change which is that if your query name is unexported, we
no longer do the same with the input-type names; it's unclear to me if
anyone will actually care about this behavior (Khan always makes the
queries exported) but if they did it was very inconsistent (only at the
query toplevel, and only for input-objects, not enums), so we can
reimplement it properly if that comes up.  As a bonus fix, we now better
handle the case where your type-names are lowercase, which is legal if
nonstandard GraphQL.

Ben KraftandGitHub 46898ca52c Return clearer errors when __typename is missing (#68)
## Summary:
In practice, at Khan at least, this is easy to mess up when writing
mocks, because you write the mock by looking at the query, and the query
doesn't say it's asking for `__typename` (because genqlient
automatically adds that).  A sufficiently-smart mocking library might be
able to fix that, or detect it at least, but in any case, we can give a
clearer error.

I also removed an unrelated TODO that was done.

Ben KraftandGitHub 8f9d1cf792 Add support for interfaces, part 4: getter methods (#57)
## Summary:
Right now, if you make a query like `{ myInterface { field } }`, you
have to type-switch on all the possible implementations of `myInterface`
to get at `field`.  Now, we generate getter-methods (e.g. `GetField`),
to make that access easier.  Of course this only applies to shared
fields (which for now are the only ones, but once we support fragments
will no longer be).

This also includes a small change to the way we generate type-names for
interfaces: we no longer include the name of the concrete type in the
interface we propagate forward, so we generate
`MyInterfaceMyFieldMyType`, not `MyInterfaceMyImplMyFieldMyType`, in the
case where you have an interface `MyInterface` implemented by `MyImpl`
(and maybe other types) with field `myField: MyType`.  This is necessary
so the getter method returns a well-defined type, and also probably
convenient for calling code.  It will have to get a little bit more
complicated once we support fragments, where you could have two
implementing types with identically-named fields of different types, but
I think it'll be easiest to figure out how to deal with that when
implementing fragments.

While I was in the area, I added to the interface doc-comment a list of
the implementations.  (In GraphQL, we're guaranteed to know them all
assuming our schema is up to date.)

Ben KraftandGitHub 65f9e90f2b Add support for interfaces, part 3: automatically add __typename (#56)
## Summary:
In #52, I added support for interface types, but with the simplifying
restriction (among others) that the user must request the field
`__typename`.  In this commit, I remove this restriction.

The basic idea is simple: we preprocess the query to add `__typename`.
The implementation isn't much more complicated!  Although it required
some new wiring in a few places.

Ben KraftandGitHub 1e87553788 Add support for interfaces, part 2: list-of-interface (#54)
## Summary:
In this commit I remove one of the limitations of our support for
interfaces, from #52, by adding support for list-of-interface fields.
This was surprisingly complex!  The issue is that, as before, it's the
containing type that has to do all the glue work -- and it's that glue
work that is complicated by list-of-interface fields.

All in all, it's not that much new code, and by far the hard part is
just 20 lines in the UnmarshalJSON template (which come with almost
twice as many lines of comments to explain them).  It may be easiest to
start by reading some of the generated code, and then read the template.

I also added support for such fields with `pointer: true` specified,
such that the type is `[][]...[]*MyInterface`, although I don't know why
you would want that.  This does *not* allow e.g. `*[]*[][]*MyInterface`;
that would require a way to specify it (see #16) but also add some extra
complexity (as we'd have to actually walk the type-unwrap chain
properly, instead of just counting the number of slices and whether
there's a pointer).

Ben KraftandGitHub 4c38cb7759 Add support for interfaces, part 1: the simplest cases (#52)
## Summary:
In this commit I begin the journey to add the long-awaited support for
interfaces (part of #8).  Well, it's not the beginning: I already had
some half-written broken code around.  But it's the first fully
functional support, and especially, the first *tested* support; it's
probably best to review the nontrivially-changed code as if it were new.

Conceptually, the code so far is pretty simple: we generate an interface
type, and the implementations.  (That code is in fact mostly unchanged.)
The complexity comes in because encoding/json doesn't know how to
unmarshal that.  So we have to add an UnmarshalJSON method, which
actually has to be on the types with interface-type fields, that knows
how.  I factored it into two methods, such that that UnmarshalJSON
method is just glue, and then there's a separate function, corresponding
to each interface-type, that actually does all the work.  (If only one
could just write it as an actual method!)  The method uses the same
trick suggested to me by a few others in another context to deserialize
all but one field, then handle that field specially, which is discussed
in the code.

This still has some limitations, which will be lifted in future commits:
- it doesn't allow for list-of-interface fields
- it requires that you manually ask for `__typename`
- it doesn't support fragments, i.e. you can only query for interface
  fields, not concrete-type-specific ones
But it works, even in integration tests, which is progress!

As a part of this, I added a proper config option for the "allow broken
features" flag, since I need to be able to set it from the integration
tests which are in a separate package (and actually shell out via `go
generate`).  I also renamed what was to be the first case
(InterfaceNoFragments), and replaced it with a further-simplified
version (avoiding list-of-interface fields.

Ben KraftandGitHub 8815d0991c Big refactor to separate operation-traversal from code-generation (#51)
## Summary:
I've felt for a while that types.go is way too confusing, and as I
started to implement some of the more complex cases of generating
interface-types, the cracks were really starting to show.  Luckily, I
also finally realized how to fix it: we need to separate the process of
traversing the GraphQL operation and schema to decide what types to
generate from the process of actually generating those types.  This
requires an extra set of intermediate data structures, but I think it
makes things quite a lot easier to understand -- and, importantly, it
means that the code-generation doesn't need to go in the order we
traverse the query/schema.

So in this commit, I did that huge refactor.  It's probably best to just
review types.go and traverse.go as if they were new; the old code was
quite hard to understand and the new code will hopefully make a lot more
sense.  (And to that end, review comments about what could be organized
better or needs more documentation are very much in order, even for code
that is mostly unchanged.)

This does introduce one bug, sort of, which is that rather than
generating broken code for list-of-interface fields, we generate no code
at all.  (A TODO in unmarshal.go describes why.)  I'll fix this when I
add support for those fields.  (It's all behind the AllowBrokenFeatures
flag, anyway.)  Otherwise, the only changes to generated code are that a
few methods are ordered differently, because we now generate the
implements-interface methods with the interface, rather than the
implementations, as it's much simpler that way.  (In GraphQL, unlike Go,
we know the list of all possible implementations of each interface, so
this is possible.)
