Ben KraftandGitHub 6e2b1a5811 Fix broken behavior for several options on the same node (#105)
## Summary:
Previously, we actually allowed you to put several genqlient directives
on the same node, but the semantics were undocumented (and somewhat
confusing, when it comes to `typename`).  In order to support directives
on input options, we're actually going to be encouraging this usage (see
notes in #14), so it's time to fix it.  To avoid confusion, I just had
conflicting directives be an error, rather than defining which one
"wins".  The same applies to specifying the same option several
times in one directive.

I also fixed two small bugs:
- `typename` on an operation would incorrectly cascade down to
  all input types in a query (causing conflicts).
- directive parse errors had useless positions, now they're correct

Ben KraftandGitHub 8de55d352e Add support for binding with a custom marshal/unmarshal function (#104)
## Summary:
This is useful if you want to bind to a type you don't control (or use
for other things) but need different serialization than its default.
This is a feature gqlgen has and we've found it very useful.  For
example, in webapp we want to bind `DateTime` to `time.Time`, but its
default serialization is not compatible with Python, so currently we
have to bind to a wrapper type and cast all over the place, which is
exactly the sort of boilerplate genqlient is supposed to avoid.

For unmarshaling, the implementation basically just follows the existing
support for abstract types; instead of calling our own generated
helper, we now call your specified function.  This required some
refactoring to abstract the handling of custom unmarshalers generally
from abstract types specifically, and to wire in not only the
unmarshaler-name but also the `generator` (in order to compute the right
import alias).

For marshaling, I had to implement all that stuff over again; it's
mostly parallel to unmarshaling (and I made a few minor changes to
unmarshaling to make the two more parallel).  Luckily, after #103 I at
least only had to do it once, rather than implementing the same
functionality for arguments and for input-type fields.  It was still
quite a bit of code; I didn't try to be quite as completionist about the
tests as with unmarshal but still had to add a few.

Ben KraftandGitHub 5995653583 Refactor argument-handling to use a struct (#103)
## Summary:
In this commit I refactor the argument-generation logic to move most of
the code out of the template and into the type-generator.  This logic
predates #51, and I didn't think to update it there, but I think it
benefits from similar treatment, for similar reasons.

Specifically, the main change is to treat variables as another struct
type we can generate, rather than handling them inline as a
`map[string]interface{}`.  Users still pass them the same way, but
instead of putting them into a `map[string]interface{}` and JSONifying
that, we generate a struct and put them there.

This turns out to simplify things quite a lot, because we already have a
lot of code to generate types.  Notably, the omitempty code goes from a
dozen lines to basically two, and fixes a bug (#43) in the process,
because now that we have a struct, `json.Marshal` will do our work for
us! (And, once we have syntax for it (#14), we'll be able to handle
field-level omitempty basically for free.)  More importantly, it will
simplify custom marshalers (#38, forthcoming) significantly, since we do
all that logic at the containing-struct level, but will need to apply it
to arguments.

It does require two breaking changes:

1. For folks implementing the `graphql.Client` API (rather than just
   calling `NewClient`): we now pass them variables as an `interface{}`
   rather than a `map[string]interface{}`.  For most callers, including
   Khan/webapp, this is basically a one-line change to the signature of
   their `MakeRequest`, and it should be a lot more future-proof.
2. genqlient's handling of the `omitempty` option has changed to match
   that of `encoding/json`, in particular it now never considers structs
   "empty".  The difference was never intentional (I just didn't realize
   that behavior of `encoding/json`); arguably our behavior was more
   useful but I think that's outweighed by the value of consistency with
   `encoding/json` as well as the simpler and more correct
   implementation (fixing #43 is actually quite nontrivial otherwise).
   Once we have custom unmarshaler support (#38), users will be able to
   map a zero value to JSON null if they wish, which is mostly if not
   entirely equivalent for GraphQL's purposes.

Ben KraftandGitHub ab1aaed845 Fix a bug in type-name collapsing introduced by #71 (#110)
## Summary:
We typically name our types `OperationFieldTypeFieldType`, but if a
type's name matches the preceding field-name, we omit the type-name.
In #71 I changed the behavior such that we no longer do that in the case
where the type's name matches some suffix of the name-so-far that's
longer than just the leaf field-name.

This was semi-intentional; I assumed it didn't matter and would be more
predictable this way.  But it turns out that was a feature, both in the
sense that almost any change to the type-name-generator is breaking, and
in the sense that it made the names uglier.  Plus, now that we have
better conflict-detection (#94), the possibility that some tricksy
type-names could cause problems is no longer as much of an issue, so we
can be a little less careful here.  (Although I think this is no less
safe than before; the field-names are the important part.)  So in this
commit I revert the change.

Specifically, this comes up a lot at Khan where we do
```
mutation ForcePhantom {
    forcePhantom {     # type: ForcePhantom
        error { ... }  # type: ForcePhantomError
    }
}
```
Before #71, and again after this change, we'll generate
`ForcePhantomForcePhantomError` for `error`; before we'd generate
`ForcePhantomForcePhantomErrorForcePhantomError`.

Ben KraftandGitHub f72933fa0e Refactor import-loading to simplify the type-generation code (#101)
## Summary:
genqlient has some code (`imports.go`) dedicated to tracking which
imports we need and avoiding conflicts, as well as converting a
(restricted) Go expression like `map[string]github.com/me/mypkg.MyType`
to an import (`github.com/me/mypkg`) and a type-reference
(`map[string]mypkg.MyType`) to be used in the context of that import,
and at least making some attempt to track conflicts.  (Right now the
conflict-avoidance is not very smart, and not very well tested, but it
comes up rarely anyway.)  Sadly, that code was a bit cumbersome to use,
because you had to first register the imports (typically from
`convert.go`), then use them (often from the template).

In this commit I refactor the order we write things in order to allow a
significant simplification of how we import; in particular we no longer
have to guess in advance what imports which template will need; it can
just do `{{ref <expr>}}` as before, and it just works.  To do this, I:
- changed the importer to have only one API, which adds the import if
  needed, and returns the reference either way
- added a check that we don't add imports after they're written
- reorganized the toplevel templates a bit to make sure that check never
  fires; we now generate all the types and operations, then write the
  imports and glue it all together
This removes a bunch of silly code, and should simplify the process of
adding custom (un)marshalers (#38).

While I was at it, I put the documentation of what expressions we
support in a more visible place, and added a type-assertion that your
custom context type implements context.Context (if applicable).

Ben KraftandGitHub fcae8dd1d7 Add support for specifying type-names, and conflict-detection (#94)
## Summary:
In this commit I add two related features to genqlient:
conflict-detection to avoid generating two distinct types with the same
name, and an option to specify the type-name genqlient should use for
some type.

The conflict-detection was pretty simple once I realized I had already
written all the code to do it in #70.  There was a bunch of wiring,
since we now need to keep track of the GraphQL type/selection-set that
each type corresponds to, but it was pretty straightforward.  This
allows us to:
- detect and reject if you have really sneaky type-names (there are some
  examples documented in `names.go`)
- more clearly crash if genqlient accidentally generates two conflicting
  types, and
- avoid stack-overflow when handing recursive (input) types (although
  sadly the poor support for options on input types (#14) makes them
  difficult to use in many cases; you really need to be able to set
  `pointer: true`)

And with that all set up, the type-naming was also easy!  (It doesn't
have to get into the core of the type-generator, just plug in where we
choose names.  The desire for conflict detection was the main reason I
hadn't set it up already.)  Note that the existing limitation of #70 that
the fields have to be in exactly the same order remains (and is now
documented as #93); it's not deeply hard to fix but it's surprisingly
much work.

Ben KraftandGitHub 5211442843 Add a new option to treat an interface like an object (#97)
## Summary:
The basic idea here is if you only request interface fields (no
fragments) you may not care about the concrete type, and so we could
just generate a struct as if it were an object.  I don't think it's a
good idea to do that by default, because then if you later add a
fragment all your code totally changes, but it's quite reasonable as an
option!

Most of the code involved is just wiring and validation; the
core implementation is literally just: treat it like an object.

Ben KraftandGitHub 4d2058c617 Add a bunch more documentation (and rewrite README) (#86)
## Summary:
In this commit, I add a bunch more documentation of how to use
genqlient, including a getting started guide, and a FAQ that also acts
as a how-to shaped index of common configuration options and extension
points.  Much of this is adapted from the internal doc I wrote at Khan,
or reorganized from what was in the README.  Speaking of which, now that
there are better places for all the details, I rewrote the README to be
a bit more of an overview and index of other documentation.  (For now I
left the "unmaintained" notes, which I'll remove fairly soon once all
our ducks are in a row.)

Fixes #26, #39.

Ben KraftandGitHub 9804d42e2f Make README logo work in dark mode (#87)
## Summary:
Dark mode is, they say, the new thing, and the logo doesn't work super
well with it, because it's black on dark grey.  This is surprisingly
hard to fix.  There are a few options:
- make the logo colored; sorry, but I like black
- add a white border to the logo; this is what Apollo does but I
  think it's pretty ugly in dark mode
- add svg with media queries; this works well but only if the github
  dark mode setting matches the browser(/OS) dark mode setting, since
  that's what the media queries look at
I opted for option 3.  This required converting the text in the SVG to
paths, since it really matters that you have the exact same font.  (I
tested on Android Firefox, which empirically doesn't have the same fonts
I have on desktop.)

Fixes #17.

Issue: https://github.com/Khan/genqlient/issues/17

## Test plan:
tested that it looks good on both mobile firefox in dark mode, and
desktop firefox+chrome in light mode.

Ben KraftandGitHub 2eba9a2c30 Reorganize documentation to make room to grow (#84)
## Summary:
In this commit I reorganize much of our documentation into a new `docs`
directory, where there will hopefully be more room to grow and to
organize things in a user-friendly way.  There's almost no net-new
documentation, although of course it's a great time to review it anyway.

In particular:
- I moved the documentation for the `genqlient.yaml` config file into an
  example file instead of GoDoc (which now just points to the example
  file); I think this will be a lot clearer for casual users.
- I moved the documentation for the `@genqlient` directive out of GoDoc
  and into a GraphQL schema file (since while it's a comment it's all
  real syntax), likewise, and made the `GenqlientDirective` type private
  (since there's now nothing useful to do with it).
- I moved `DESIGN.md` and the logo into `docs/` (just to keep the
  toplevel a bit cleaner), and separated the Contributing section of the
  README into `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md` (which github will automatically
  link on various issue and PR pages).

This leaves it so that:
- README.md is the only documentation at the toplevel (and will become
  just the high-level introduction as I add more user docs to `docs/`)
- GoDoc is only documentation for if you want to call genqlient
  programmatically (which is fairly limited as the API surface is quite
  small: it's now just Main, Generate, and Config, plus a constructor, a
  single method, and a bunch of fields on the latter)

In future commits, I'll add some more new documentation to the `docs`
directory.
