Update resolver syntax

[chrisschaub]

I have been trying to get an update mutation to work correctly, and I can't get past an unkown type error:

In my resolver definition, I have

  @Mutation(returns => Customer)
  async updateCustomer(
    @Arg("updateCustomerInput") updateCustomerInput: UpdateCustomer,
    @Ctx() ctx: Context,
  ): Promise<Customer> {
    return ctx.prisma.customer.update({
      where: { id: updateCustomerInput.id },
      data: { 
        name: updateCustomerInput.name,
        email: updateCustomerInput.email,
        user_id: updateCustomerInput.user_id,
        updated: Date.now()
      },
    })
  }

I have the following input defined

@InputType()
export class UpdateCustomer implements Partial<Customer> {
  @Field(type => ID)
  readonly id: string

  @Field()
  name: string

  @Field()
  email: string

  @Field()
  user_id: string
}

I've keep getting this error:

react_devtools_backend.js:4026 Error: Unknown type "updateCustomerInput".: {"response":{"errors":[{"message":"Unknown type \"updateCustomerInput\".","extensions":{"code":"GRAPHQL_VALIDATION_FAILED"...

The query comes in as

{
  "query": "mutation ($input: updateCustomerInput) {\n  updateCustomer (input: $input) {\n    id, name, email, user_id, created, updated\n  }\n}",
  "variables": {
    "input": {
      "where": {
        "id": "6286b2a73ca0f733ecd4bc46"
      },
      "data": {
        "id": "6286b2a73ca0f733ecd4bc46",
        "name": "Chris Test",
        "email": "[email protected]",
        "user_id": "123"
      }
    }
  }
}

I just am stuck on the correct styntax for defining this update mutation. My other queries are working, but have been looking at this, trying to find a better example, but there are not many update examples anywhere. Ok, thanks for any help!

Show the document (mutation) you're sending in a readable format

[MichalLytek]

updateCustomer (input: $input)
it's wrong because you've set the name to updateCustomerInput

Sorry, reformatted the json query that is being sent

I've tried changing the name to "input". Can you point to an example of an update so I can compare and stare at it? I am not writing the query, just the backend. But the query looks pretty standard. Just looking for a guide to the syntax for an update mutation. Thanks again.

You should have autocomplete and errors in the graphql playground / apollo studio.
