I'm having difficulty implementing a scalar in lacinia. I'm cannibalizing the leaderboard app for testing and I've added this to my schema file on the same level as :queries

and changed the schema compiler to look like this

however, all i get back on the client is whatever my resolver sends. so resolve device sends "red" and i get red for this field even though my scalar serializer is called

what does the rest of your schema look like?

i feel like i'm so close but I just don't really know what to try next

I'm wondering if you need to add a resolver to the :created field

in the docs, i assumed that was just to resolve it with a today date to show it being parsed as a scalar but I can try that. My :scalar-date-serializer is getting called which is odd

i wonder if i need to include that spec stuff

you could try adding the conform-stuff

I know in libraries in other languages (e.g. elixir using absinthe), enforcing types on nested data has never really worked

I remember running into a very similar problem there

adding a resolver for the date field doesn't help. I tried to add the conform stuff but as soon as i depend on clojure 1.9 it breaks the app unfortunately

I'm trying to convert an apollo project to clojure so i can learn clojure and this is the last bit before I can start converting it all

and the scalars work fine in my node graphql instance

conform should work without clojure 1.9?

when i do (clojure.pprint/pprint (keys (ns-publics 'com.walmartlabs.lacinia.schema))) there is no as-conformer method

thanks for you help btw

np

ah, i think the docs might be wrong

should it be s/as-conformer?

which version of lacinia are you using?

0.15.0

try updating to 0.17.0

it might break some other parts of the app but I wouldn't trust the docs to be correct for anything but the current version

upgraded to 17, wrapped in the conformer and it is working

thanks a bunch

👍

did you get io.aviso/pretty working?

I did 🙂

is all that you have to do is add it to project.clj under deps and plugins?

or am i missing a step

that was all I had to do

okay, maybe i'll try one of the alternate methods

is it erroring, or just not doing anything?

doing nothing differently

the leaderboard is setup as a ring server so i start it with lein ring server

not sure if that is related

hmm

it is much niecer than the pedestal example provided for testing since it recompiles everything each request

and you're triggering an exception in your code?

i've had plenty while trying to get this working

yeah, reloading code is a bit of an annoyance with pedestal I'm finding -_-

sometimes I just restart my repl just to make sure

and i have no clue the differences between pedestal and ring so for now it is just whatever is easiest

I have to run, but if you're here in a few hours when I get back I'll try and set up aviso again and see if we can figure it out

no worries. thanks for all the help
