Add default values to fields in GraphQL schemas for AWS Amplify. Confirmed working with Amplify CLI 4.17.2.
Amplify CLI requires custom transformers to be installed globally as of right now:
npm i -g graphql-default-value-transformer
In your Amplify project, find the transform.conf.json file under <project-path>/amplify/backend/api/<your-api-name>/. Add the npm package name for this transformer - graphql-default-value-transformer - to the transformers property:
{
"transformers": [
"graphql-default-value-transformer"
]
}
Supply the @default directive with a single value parameter on any scalar/enum field under a @model. The value parameter must be formatted as a string regardless of the corresponding field type.
type Post @model {
id: ID!
title: String! @default(value: "hello world")
viewCount: Int @default(value: "9001")
tag: Tag @default(value: "RANDOM")
}
enum Tag {
NEWS
RANDOM
}
This transformer only supports scalar and enum types, include the AWS specific types (e.g.: AWSDateTime).
