-- GraphQL distinguishes between input and output types. Input types are field
-- argument types and they are defined in Language.GraphQL.Type.In. Output types
-- are result types, they are defined in Language.GraphQL.Type.Out. Root types
-- are always object types.
--
-- Here we define a type "Query". The second argument is an optional
-- description, the third one is the list of interfaces implemented by the
-- object type. The last argument is a field map. Keys are field names, values
-- are field definitions and resolvers. Resolvers are the functions, where the
-- actual logic lives, they return values for the respective fields.

    -- 'ValueResolver' is a 'Resolver' data constructor, it combines a field
    -- definition with its resolver function. This function resolves a value for
    -- a field (as opposed to the 'EventStreamResolver' used by subscriptions).

    -- The first argument is an optional field description. The second one is

    -- Named types are nullable by default. To make our "cite" field
    -- non-nullable, we wrap it in the wrapping type, Non-Null.

-- Now we can execute a query. Since our schema defines only one field,
-- everything we can do is to ask to resolve it and give back the result.
-- Since subscriptions don't return plain values, the 'graphql' function returns
-- an 'Either'. 'Left' is for subscriptions, 'Right' is for queries and
-- mutations.
