Build Plugin: Adding Custom Additional Types

[dhartung]

Hi there! I read in the documentation that you can register additional types which do not appear in a query, mutation or subscription. This is awesome as I need this feature for types that are only used in resolveres for Federation.

However, I can't find the correct hook to access or override the SchemaGenerator like described in the documentation when using the Gradle Build Plugin. I was able to provide a SchemaGeneratorHooksProvider to define custom scalars, but I need a pointer where to look to access the actual SchemaGenerator :)

Thanks in advance!

Hello 👋
Federation is already supported (see docs - any types annotated with @ExtendsDirective will be automatically picked up and processed as if they were exposed as if they were accessible through regular query/mutation path.

You could try overriding the fun willBuildSchema(builder: GraphQLSchema.Builder): GraphQLSchema.Builder hook and manually add the types in there but it won't let you to call in to the schema generator methods.
