# Queries

If you would rather learn by playing with a demo checkout the [client demo](https://genie-team.github.io/graphql-genie-client/). Note you can set the Data Mode to Mock in settings to have queries return demo data

## Get One

If `generateGetOne` is true in the generatorOptions (defaults to true) queries will be created for every type in the model. The name of the query will be the camel case of the type name. Arguments are any unique fields and will return a single object from the data store

## Get All

If `generateGetAll` is true in the generatorOptions (defaults to true) queries will be created for every type in the model. The name of the query will be the plural version of the type name. 

Every query will have optional arguments `where`, `first`, `last`, `skip`, `before`, `after`. As well as identifying root fields for scalar types. These root fields are the same as doing {where: match:{}}. They are a convenience and allow some more advanced caching with [Relay](https://facebook.github.io/relay/).

## Export Data

If `generateMigrations` is true in the generatorOptions (defaults to true) a query will be created called `exportData`. This exports all of the data (or the specified types) in the data base. See the [getRawData function](https://github.com/genie-team/graphql-genie/blob/master/docs/GraphQLGenieAPI.md#getrawdata) of GraphQL Genie for more details as this query calls that function

```graphql
exportData(types: [String]): JSON
```

## Query docs

For the following typedefs `user`, `users`, `city` and `cities` queries will be created.

```typescript 
const typeDefs = `
type City {
  id: ID! @unique
  name: String!
  neighborhoods: [String]
  user: User
  founded: Date
  population: Int
}
type User {
  id: ID! @unique
  displayname: String @unique
  email: String! @unique
  address: City
}
`
const genie = new GraphQLGenie({ 
  typeDefs, 
  generatorOptions: {
    generateGetAll: true,
  }
});
```

### Get One

The generated query will look like this, you can either use the where object or the root arguments

```graphql
user(
  where: UserWhereUniqueInput
  id: ID
  displayname: String
  email: String
): User
```

### Get All
Let's take a close look at what a generated query looks like

```graphql
cities(
  # Filter the results
  where: CityWhereInput
  # Sort the results
  orderBy: CityOrderByInput
  # Slice result from the start of the cursor
  first: Int
  # Slice result from the start of the cursor
  last: Int
  # Skip results from the start of the data
  skip: Int
  # Before this cursor (ID) in the data, see connection queries documentation for more info
  before: String
  # After this cursor (ID) in the data, see connection queries documentation for more info
  after: String
  # id matches at least one of argument
  id: [ID!]
  # name matches at least one of argument
  name: [String!]
  # neighborhoods matches at least one of argument
  neighborhoods: [String!]
  # founded matches at least one of argument
  founded: [Date!]
  # population matches at least one of argument
  population: [Int!]
) : [City]
```

#### where argument

The where argument will filter the returned results. 

```graphql
input CityWhereInput {
  # nested where, only find cities where the user matches this
  user: UserWhereInput
  # Filter on whether or not a field exists (or is not empty for an array)
  # input CityExistsInput {id: Boolean, name: Boolean, neighborhoods: Boolean, user: Boolean}
  exists: CityExistsInput
  # Filter on whether or not a field value matches. Can only check scalar and enum fields
  # name: 'New York' // exact match
  # name:  ['New York', 'LA'] // match any one of these values
  # neighborhoods: 'chinatown' //if neighborhoods contains 'chinatown' as neighborhoods is a list type
  match: CityMatchInput
  # Filter between lower and upper bounds, takes precedence over match
  # name: [ 'a', 'd' ], // Starting with letters A through C.
  # founded: [ null, "2016-01-01" ] // Dates until 2016.
  # population: [ 100000, null ], // From 100000 and above.
  range: CityRangeInput
  # and/or/not will be present if your fortune adapter supports those operations
  and: [CityWhereInput!]
  or: [CityWhereInput!]
  not: CityWhereInput
}
```

#### orderBy argument

The orderBy argument will sort the results. Scalar fields will simply take the ORDER_BY_OPTIONS enum which looks like.

```graphql
enum ORDER_BY_OPTIONS {
  ASCENDING
  DESCENDING
  ASC
  DESC
}
```

You can also sort related types. 

**Note:** Sorting on user here will sort the user type if it is part of the query, not change the sorting of the cities

```graphql
input CityOrderByInput {
  id: ORDER_BY_OPTIONS
  name: ORDER_BY_OPTIONS
  neighborhoods: ORDER_BY_OPTIONS
  user: UserOrderByInput
  founded: ORDER_BY_OPTIONS
  population: ORDER_BY_OPTIONS
}

```

## Examples

**Note: You can see a lot of examples by looking at the [tests](https://github.com/genie-team/graphql-genie/tree/master/src/tests).**
See the [setupTests](https://github.com/genie-team/graphql-genie/blob/master/src/tests/setupTests.ts) file to see the schema and then see the files in the [__tests__](https://github.com/genie-team/graphql-genie/tree/master/src/tests/__tests__) folder for many different examples.

### Get all the cities

```graphql
query allCities {
  cities {
    id
    name
  }
}
```

### Get a single city matching an id

```graphql
query singleCity {
  city (id: "ID") {
    id
    name
  }
}
```

### Get a single user matching a unique field

```graphql
query singleUser {
  user (displayname: "aCoreyJ") {
    id
    name
  }
}
```

### Get cities using a filter and skip

Get all cities founded before 1990-0-01 and order by ascending. Also skip the first 5 results

```graphql
query filteredCities {
  cities(
    where: {range: {founded: [null, "1990-01-01"]}}
    orderBy: {founded: ASCENDING}
    skip: 5
  ) {
    name
    population
    founded
  }
}

```
### Get cities and filter the output

When requesting objects you can filter as part of the query, this is different than filtering on that type in the arguments of the query in that it won't filter out cities that don't match the input, it will just filter out the results of the user

```graphql
query allCities {
  cities {
    name
    population
    user(where: {exists:{email: true}}) {
      email
    }
  }
}
```
