Let's try MonadThrow/MonadCatch. It looks nice at a first glance. The
monad transformer stack contains only the ReaderT, less lifts are
required. Exception subtyping is easier, the user can (and should)
define custom error types and throw them. And it is still possible to
use pure error handling, if someone doesn't like runtime exceptions or
need to run a query in a pure environment.
Fixes#42.
This is experimental support.
The implementation is based on conduit and is boring. There is a new
resolver data constructor that should create a source event stream. The
executor receives the events, pipes them through the normal execution
and puts them into the response stream which is returned to the user.
- Tests are missing.
- The executor should check field value resolver on subscription types.
- The graphql function should probably return (Either
ResponseEventStream Response), but I'm not sure about this. It will
make the usage more complicated if no subscriptions are involved, but
with the current API implementing subscriptions is more
difficult than it should be.
It makes using variables with queries more approachable, but some work
still has to be done.
- The type `Subs` should be renamed and moved out of `Schema`, together with
`AST.Core.Value` probably.
- Some kind of conversion should be possible from a user-defined input
type T to the Value. So the final HashMap should have a type like
`HashMap name a`, where a is an instance of a potential typeclass
InputType.
Fixes#18.
- `Language.GraphQL.Encoder` moved to `Language.GraphQL.AST.Encoder`.
- `Language.GraphQL.Parser` moved to `Language.GraphQL.AST.Parser`.
- `Language.GraphQL.Lexer` moved to `Language.GraphQL.AST.Lexer`.
- All `Language.GraphQL.AST.Value` data constructor prefixes were removed. The
module should be imported qualified.
- All `Language.GraphQL.AST.Core.Value` data constructor prefixes were removed.
The module should be imported qualified.
- `Language.GraphQL.AST.Transform` is now isn't exposed publically anymore.
It is not a schema (at least not a complete one), but a resolver list,
and the resolvers should be provided by the user separately, because the
schema can originate from a GraphQL document. Schema name should be free
to provide a data type for the real schema later.
This replaces the most usages of MonadPlus, which is not appropriate for
the resolvers, since a resolver is unambiguously chosen by the name (no
need for 'mplus'), and the resolvers are often doing IO.
