## Summary:
This lets you write code like:
```
query x {
# @genqlient(typename: "MyString")
someStringField
}
```
and genqlient will do
```
typename MyString string
type x struct {
someStringField MyString
}
```
This was not difficult to implement, though it required introducing a
new identifier type. The main difficulty I had was weird test
failures, that it turns out was due to the tests putting a bunch of
fields on the same line, so that the genqlient directive on the
previous line applied to all of them, accidentally. This became a
problem when `typename` suddenly started being respected for builtin
types! I fixed it by just spreading out the queries a bit.
Fixes #130

Breaking changes:
New features:
- genqlient now generates getter methods for all fields, even those which do not implement a genqlient-generated interface; this can be useful for callers who wish to define their own interface and have several unrelated genqlient types which have the same fields implement it.
- genqlient config now accepts either a single or multiple schema files for the
schemafield. - The
typenameoption can now be used on basic types (string, int, etc) as well as structs; this can be useful to have genqlient define new types liketype Language stringand use that type for specified fields.
Bug fixes:
- In certain very rare cases involving duplicate fields in fragment spreads, genqlient would generate code that failed to compile due to duplicate methods not getting promoted; genqlient now generates correct types. (See #126 for a more complete description.)
v0.3.0
Version 0.3.0 adds several new configuration options, allowing simplification of generated types and configuration of input types, as well as marshalers for all genqlient-generated types.
Breaking changes:
- Previously,
# @genqlientdirectives applied to entire operations applied inconsistently to fields of input types used by those operations. Specifically,pointer: true, when applied to the operation, would affect all input-field arguments, butomitempty: truewould not. Now, all options apply to fields of input types; this is a behavior change in the case ofomitempty.
New features:
- genqlient's types are now safe to JSON-marshal, which can be useful for putting them in a cache, for example. See the docs for details.
- The new
flattenoption in the# @genqlientdirective allows for a simpler form of type-sharing using fragment spreads. See the docs for details. - The new
foroption in the# @genqlientdirective allows applying options to a particular field anywhere it appears in the query. This is especially useful for fields of input types, for which there is otherwise no way to specify options; see the documentation on handling nullable fields for an example, and the# @genqlientdirective reference for the full details.
Bug fixes:
v0.2.0
Version 0.2.0 adds several convenience features for using custom scalars, as well as many internal improvements and bug fixes.
Breaking changes:
- The
graphql.Clientinterface now acceptsvariables interface{}(containing a JSON-marshalable value) rather thanvariables map[string]interface{}. Clients implementing the interface themselves will need to change the signature; clients who simply callgraphql.NewClientare unaffected. - genqlient's handling of the
omitemptyoption has changed to match that ofencoding/json, from which it had inadvertently differed. In particular, this means struct-typed arguments with# @genqlient(omitempty: true)will no longer be omitted if they are the zero value. (Struct-pointers are still omitted if nil, so addingpointer: truewill typically work fine. It's also now possible to use a custom marshaler to explicitly map zero to null.)
New features:
- The new
bindings.marshalerandbindings.unmarshaleroptions ingenqlient.yamlallow binding to a type without using its standard JSON serialization; see the documentation for details. - Multiple genqlient directives may now be applied to the same node, as long as they don't conflict; see the directive documentation for details.
Bug fixes:
- The
omitemptyoption now works correctly for struct- and map-typed variables, matchingencoding/json, which is to say it never omits structs, and omits empty maps. (#43) - Generated type-names now abbreviate across multiple components; for example if the path to a type is
(MyOperation, Outer, Outer, Inner, OuterInner), it will again be calledMyOperationOuterInner. (This regressed in a pre-v0.1.0 refactor.) (#109) - Previously, interface fields with
# @genqlient(pointer: true)would be unmarshaled to(*MyInterface)(*<nil>), i.e. a pointer to the untyped-nil of the interface type. Now they are unmarshaled as(*MyInterface)(<nil>), i.e. a nil pointer of the pointer-to-interface type, as you would expect.
