Class GraphQLFieldDefinition

java.lang.Object

graphql.schema.GraphQLFieldDefinition

All Implemented Interfaces:

GraphQLDirectiveContainer, GraphQLNamedSchemaElement, GraphQLSchemaElement

@PublicApi
public class GraphQLFieldDefinition
extends java.lang.Object
implements GraphQLNamedSchemaElement, GraphQLDirectiveContainer

Fields are the ways you get data values in graphql and a field definition represents a field, its type, the arguments it takes and the DataFetcher used to get data values for that field. Fields can be thought of as functions in graphql, they have a name, take defined arguments and return a value. Fields can also be deprecated, which indicates the consumers that a field wont be supported in the future. See http://graphql.org/learn/queries/#fields for more details on the concept.
