v1.4.0

Added

• Adds _in and _nin operators (#122)

Changed

• BREAKING: If configuration.json cannot be parsed the connector will fail to start. This change also prohibits unknown keys in that file. These changes will help to prevent typos configuration being silently ignored. (#115)

Fixed

• Fixes for filtering by complex predicate that references variables, or field names that require escaping (#111)
• Escape names if necessary instead of failing when joining relationship on field names with special characters (#113)

_in and _nin

These operators compare document values for equality against a given set of
options. _in matches documents where one of the given values matches, _nin matches
documents where none of the given values matches. For example this query selects
movies that are rated either "G" or "TV-G":

query {
  movies(
    where: { rated: { _in: ["G", "TV-G"] } }
    order_by: { id: Asc }
    limit: 5
  ) {
    title
    rated
  }
}

v1.3.0

Added

Fixed

• Selecting nested fields with names that begin with a dollar sign (#108)
• Sorting by fields with names that begin with a dollar sign (#109)

Changed

v1.2.0

Added

• Extended JSON fields now support all comparison and aggregation functions (#99)
• Update to ndc-spec v0.1.6 which allows filtering by object values in array fields (#101)

Filtering by values in arrays

In this update you can filter by making comparisons to object values inside
arrays. For example consider a MongoDB database with these three documents:

{ "institution": "Black Mesa", "staff": [{ "name": "Freeman" }, { "name": "Calhoun" }] }
{ "institution": "Aperture Science", "staff": [{ "name": "GLaDOS" }, { "name": "Chell" }] }
{ "institution": "City 17", "staff": [{ "name": "Alyx" }, { "name": "Freeman" }, { "name": "Breen" }] }

You can now write a GraphQL query with a where clause that checks individual
entries in the staff arrays:

query {
  institutions(where: { staff: { name: { _eq: "Freeman" } } }) {
    institution
  }
}

Which produces the result:

{ "data": { "institutions": [
  { "institution": "Black Mesa" },
  { "institution": "City 17" } 
] } }

The filter selects documents where any element in the array passes the
condition. If you want to select only documents where every array element
passes then negate the comparison on array element values, and also negate the
entire predicate like this:

query EveryElementMustMatch {
  institutions(
    where: { _not: { staff: { name: { _neq: "Freeman" } } } }
  ) {
    institution
  }
}

Note: It is currently only possible to filter on arrays that contain
objects. Filtering on arrays that contain scalar values or nested arrays will
come later.

To configure DDN metadata to filter on array fields configure the
BooleanExpressionType for the containing document object type to use an
object boolean expression type for comparisons on the array field. The
GraphQL Engine will transparently distribute object comparisons over array
elements. For example the above example is configured with this boolean
expression type for documents:

---
kind: BooleanExpressionType
version: v1
definition:
  name: InstitutionComparisonExp
  operand:
    object:
      type: Institution
      comparableFields:
        - fieldName: id
          booleanExpressionType: ObjectIdComparisonExp
        - fieldName: institution
          booleanExpressionType: StringComparisonExp
        - fieldName: staff
          booleanExpressionType: InstitutionStaffComparisonExp
      comparableRelationships: []
  logicalOperators:
    enable: true
  isNull:
    enable: true
  graphql:
    typeName: InstitutionComparisonExp

InstitutionStaffComparisonExp is the boolean expression type for objects
inside the staff array. It looks like this:

---
kind: BooleanExpressionType
version: v1
definition:
  name: InstitutionStaffComparisonExp
  operand:
    object:
      type: InstitutionStaff
      comparableFields:
        - fieldName: name
          booleanExpressionType: StringComparisonExp
      comparableRelationships: []
  logicalOperators:
    enable: true
  isNull:
    enable: true
  graphql:
    typeName: InstitutionStaffComparisonExp

  • new default behaviour:
    • attempt to use validator schema if available

  • don't sample from collections that already have a schema
  • if no --sample-size given on command line, default sample size is 10
  • new option --no-validator-schema to disable attempting to use validator schema
• Add any type and use it to represent mismatched types in sample documents (PR #18)
