An implementation of GraphQL's type system in Dart. Supports any platform where Dart runs. An implementation of GraphQL's type system in Dart. Supports any platform where Dart runs.
The decisions made in the design of this library were done to make the experience
as similar to the JavaScript reference implementation as possible, and to also
correctly implement the official specification.

### Input values and parameters
Take the following GraphQL query:
```graphql
{
anime {
characters(title: "Hunter x Hunter") {
name
age
}
}
}
```
The field `characters` accepts a parameter, `title`. To reproduce this in
`package:graphql_schema`, use `GraphQLFieldInput`:
```dart
final GraphQLObjectType queryType = objectType('AnimeQuery', fields: [
field('characters',
listType(characterType.nonNullable()),
inputs: [
new GraphQLFieldInput('title', graphQLString.nonNullable())
]
),
]);
final GraphQLObjectType characterType = objectType('Character', fields: [
field('name', graphQLString),
field('age', graphQLInt),
]);
```
In the majority of cases where you use GraphQL, you will be delegate the
actual fetching of data to a database object, or some asynchronous resolver
function.
`package:graphql_schema` includes this functionality in the `resolve` property,
which is passed a context object and a `Map<String, dynamic>` of arguments.
A hypothetical example of the above might be:
```dart
var field = field(
'characters',
graphQLString,
resolve: (_, args) async {
return await myDatabase.findCharacters(args['title']);
},
);
```
