Field Value Iteration and Manipulation | Gato GraphQL for WordPress

Addition of meta directives to the GraphQL schema, for iterating and manipulating the value elements of array and object fields:

@underArrayItem
@underJSONObjectProperty
@underEachArrayItem
@underEachJSONObjectProperty
@objectClone

@underArrayItem makes the nested directive be applied on a specific item from the array.

query {
  posts {
    categoryNames
      @underArrayItem(index: 0)
        @strUpperCase
  }
}

...produces:

{
  "data": {
    "posts": {
      "categoryNames": [
        "NEWS",
        "sports"
      ]
    }
  }
}

@underJSONObjectProperty makes the nested directive receive an entry from the queried JSON object.

query {
  postData: _sendJSONObjectItemHTTPRequest(
    url: "https://newapi.getpop.org/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/1/?_fields=id,type,title,date"
  )
    @underJSONObjectProperty(by: { path: "title.rendered" })
      @strUpperCase
}

...produces:

{
  "data": {
    "postData": {
      "id": 1,
      "date": "2019-08-02T07:53:57",
      "type": "post",
      "title": {
        "rendered": "HELLO WORLD!"
      }
    }
  }
}

@underEachArrayItem iterates over the array items from some field in the queried entity, and executes the nested directive(s) on each of them.

query {
  posts {
    id
    title
    categoryNames
    frenchCategoryNames: categoryNames
      @underEachArrayItem
        @strTranslate(
          from: "en",
          to: "fr"
        )
  }
}

...produces:

{
  "data": {
    "posts": [
      {
        "id": 662,
        "title": "Explaining the privacy policy",
        "categoryNames": [
          "Not categorized"
        ],
        "frenchCategoryNames": [
          "Non classé"
        ]
      },
      {
        "id": 28,
        "title": "HTTP caching improves performance",
        "categoryNames": [
          "Advanced"
        ],
        "frenchCategoryNames": [
          "Avancé"
        ]
      },
      {
        "id": 25,
        "title": "Public or Private API mode, for extra security",
        "categoryNames": [
          "Resource",
          "Blog",
          "Advanced"
        ],
        "frenchCategoryNames": [
          "Ressource",
          "Blog",
          "Avancé"
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

@underEachJSONObjectProperty is similar to @underEachArrayItem, but operating on JSONObject elements.

{
  _echo(
    value: {
      first: "hello",
      second: "world",
      third: null
    }
  )
    @underEachJSONObjectProperty
      @default(value: "")
}

...produces:

{
  "data": {
    "_echo": {
      "first": "hello",
      "second": "world",
      "third": ""
    }
  }
}
