Upgrade v0.12.x > dev-master
Breaking (major): minimum supported version of PHP
New minimum required version of PHP is 7.1+
Breaking (major): default errors formatting changed according to spec
Category and extensions assigned to errors are shown under extensions key
$e = new Error(
'msg',
null,
null,
null,
null,
null,
['foo' => 'bar']
);
Formatting before the change:
'errors' => [
[
'message' => 'msg',
'category' => 'graphql',
'foo' => 'bar'
]
]
After the change:
'errors' => [
[
'message' => 'msg',
'extensions' => [
'category' => 'graphql',
'foo' => 'bar',
],
]
]
Note: if error extensions contain category key - it has a priority over default category.
You can always switch to custom error formatting to revert to the old format.
Try it: Experimental Executor with improved performance
It is disabled by default. To enable it, do the following
<?php
use GraphQL\Executor\Executor;
use GraphQL\Experimental\Executor\CoroutineExecutor;
Executor::setImplementationFactory([CoroutineExecutor::class, 'create']);
Please post your feedback about new executor at https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php/issues/397 Especially if you had issues (because it may become the default in one of the next releases)
Breaking: multiple interfaces separated with & in SDL
Before the change:
type Foo implements Bar, Baz { field: Type }
After the change:
type Foo implements Bar & Baz { field: Type }
To allow for an adaptive migration, use allowLegacySDLImplementsInterfaces option of parser:
Parser::parse($source, [ 'allowLegacySDLImplementsInterfaces' => true])
Upgrade v0.11.x > v0.12.x
Breaking: Minimum supported version is PHP5.6
Dropped support for PHP 5.5. This release still supports PHP 5.6 and PHP 7.0 But the next major release will require PHP7.1+
Breaking: Custom scalar types need to throw on invalid value
As null might be a valid value custom types need to throw an
Exception inside parseLiteral(), parseValue() and serialize().
Returning null from any of these methods will now be treated as valid result.
Breaking: Custom scalar types parseLiteral() declaration changed
A new parameter was added to parseLiteral(), which also needs to be added to any custom scalar type extending from ScalarType
Before:
class MyType extends ScalarType {
...
public function parseLiteral($valueNode) {
//custom implementation
}
}
After:
class MyType extends ScalarType {
...
public function parseLiteral($valueNode, array $variables = null) {
//custom implementation
}
}
Breaking: Descriptions in comments are not used as descriptions by default anymore
Descriptions now need to be inside Strings or BlockStrings in order to be picked up as
description. If you want to keep the old behaviour you can supply the option commentDescriptions
to BuildSchema::buildAST(), BuildSchema::build() or Printer::doPrint().
Here is the official way now to define descriptions in the graphQL language:
Old:
# Description
type Dog {
...
}
New:
"Description"
type Dog {
...
}
"""
Long Description
"""
type Dog {
...
}
Breaking: Cached AST of version 0.11.x is not compatible with 0.12.x.
That's because description in AST is now a separate node, not just a string. Make sure to renew caches.
Breaking: Most of previously deprecated classes and methods were removed
See deprecation notices for previous versions in details.
Breaking: Standard server expects operationName vs operation for multi-op queries
Before the change:
{
"queryId": "persisted-query-id",
"operation": "QueryFromPersistedDocument",
"variables": {}
}
After the change:
{
"queryId": "persisted-query-id",
"operationName": "QueryFromPersistedDocument",
"variables": {}
}
This naming is aligned with graphql-express version.
Possibly Breaking: AST to array serialization excludes nulls
Most users won't be affected. It may affect you only if you do your own manipulations with exported AST.
Example of json-serialized AST before the change:
{
"kind": "Field",
"loc": null,
"name": {
"kind": "Name",
"loc": null,
"value": "id"
},
"alias": null,
"arguments": [],
"directives": [],
"selectionSet": null
}
After the change:
{
"kind": "Field",
"name": {
"kind": "Name",
"value": "id"
},
"arguments": [],
"directives": []
}
Upgrade v0.8.x, v0.9.x > v0.10.x
Breaking: changed minimum PHP version from 5.4 to 5.5
It allows us to leverage ::class constant, generators and other features of newer PHP versions.
Breaking: default error formatting
By default exceptions thrown in resolvers will be reported with generic message "Internal server error".
Only exceptions implementing interface GraphQL\Error\ClientAware and claiming themselves as safe will
be reported with full error message.
This breaking change is done to avoid information leak in production when unhandled exceptions were reported to clients (e.g. database connection errors, file access errors, etc).
Also every error reported to client now has new category key which is either graphql or internal.
Exceptions implementing ClientAware interface may define their own custom categories.
During development or debugging use $executionResult->toArray(true). It will add debugMessage key to
each error entry in result. If you also want to add trace for each error - pass flags instead:
use GraphQL\Error\FormattedError;
$debug = FormattedError::INCLUDE_DEBUG_MESSAGE | FormattedError::INCLUDE_TRACE;
$result = GraphQL::executeAndReturnResult(/*args*/)->toArray($debug);
To change default "Internal server error" message to something else, use:
GraphQL\Error\FormattedError::setInternalErrorMessage("Unexpected error");
This change only affects default error reporting mechanism. If you set your own error formatter using
$executionResult->setErrorFormatter($myFormatter) you won't be affected by this change.
If you need to revert to old behavior temporary, use:
GraphQL::executeAndReturnResult(/**/)
->setErrorFormatter('\GraphQL\Error\Error::formatError')
->toArray();
But note that this is deprecated format and will be removed in future versions.
In general, if new default formatting doesn't work for you - just set your own error formatter.
Breaking: Validation rules now have abstract base class
Previously any callable was accepted by DocumentValidator as validation rule. Now only instances of
GraphQL\Validator\Rules\AbstractValidationRule are allowed.
If you were using custom validation rules, just wrap them with
GraphQL\Validator\Rules\CustomValidationRule (created for backwards compatibility).
Before:
use GraphQL\Validator\DocumentValidator;
$myRule = function(ValidationContext $context) {};
DocumentValidator::validate($schema, $ast, [$myRule]);
After:
use GraphQL\Validator\Rules\CustomValidationRule;
use GraphQL\Validator\DocumentValidator;
$myRule = new CustomValidationRule('MyRule', function(ValidationContext $context) {});
DocumentValidator::validate($schema, $ast, [$myRule]);
Also DocumentValidator::addRule() signature changed.
Before the change:
use GraphQL\Validator\DocumentValidator;
$myRule = function(ValidationContext $context) {};
DocumentValidator::addRule('MyRuleName', $myRule);
After the change:
use GraphQL\Validator\DocumentValidator;
$myRule = new CustomValidationRulefunction('MyRule', ValidationContext $context) {});
DocumentValidator::addRule($myRule);
Breaking: AST now uses NodeList vs array for lists of nodes
It helps us unserialize AST from array lazily. This change affects you only if you use array_
functions with AST or mutate AST directly.
Before the change:
new GraphQL\Language\AST\DocumentNode([
'definitions' => array(/*...*/)
]);
After the change:
new GraphQL\Language\AST\DocumentNode([
'definitions' => new NodeList([/*...*/])
]);
Breaking: scalar types now throw different exceptions when parsing and serializing
On invalid client input (parseValue and parseLiteral) they throw standard GraphQL\Error\Error
but when they encounter invalid output (in serialize) they throw GraphQL\Error\InvariantViolation.
Previously they were throwing GraphQL\Error\UserError. This exception is no longer used so make sure
to adjust if you were checking for this error in your custom error formatters.
Breaking: removed previously deprecated ability to define type as callable
See https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php/issues/35
Deprecated: GraphQL\GraphQL::executeAndReturnResult
Method is renamed to GraphQL\GraphQL::executeQuery. Old method name is still available,
but will trigger deprecation warning in the next version.
Deprecated: GraphQL\GraphQL::execute
Use GraphQL\GraphQL::executeQuery()->toArray() instead.
Old method still exists, but will trigger deprecation warning in next version.
Deprecated: GraphQL\Schema moved to GraphQL\Type\Schema
Old class still exists, but will trigger deprecation warning in next version.
Deprecated: GraphQL\Utils moved to GraphQL\Utils\Utils
Old class still exists, but triggers deprecation warning when referenced.
Deprecated: GraphQL\Type\Definition\Config
If you were using config validation in previous versions, replace:
GraphQL\Type\Definition\Config::enableValidation();
with:
$schema->assertValid();
See https://github.com/webonyx/graphql-php/issues/148
Deprecated: experimental GraphQL\Server
Use new PSR-7 compliant implementation instead.
Deprecated: experimental GraphQL\Type\Resolution interface and implementations
Use schema typeLoader option instead.
Non-breaking: usage on async platforms
When using the library on async platforms use separate method GraphQL::promiseToExecute().
It requires promise adapter in it's first argument and always returns a Promise.
Old methods GraphQL::execute and GraphQL::executeAndReturnResult still work in backwards-compatible manner,
but they are deprecated and will be removed eventually.
Same applies to Executor: use Executor::promiseToExecute() vs Executor::execute().
Upgrade v0.7.x > v0.8.x
All of those changes apply to those who extends various parts of this library. If you only use the library and don't try to extend it - everything should work without breaks.
Breaking: Custom directives handling
When passing custom directives to schema, default directives (like @skip and @include)
are not added to schema automatically anymore. If you need them - add them explicitly with
your other directives.
Before the change:
$schema = new Schema([
// ...
'directives' => [$myDirective]
]);
After the change:
$schema = new Schema([
// ...
'directives' => array_merge(GraphQL::getInternalDirectives(), [$myDirective])
]);
Breaking: Schema protected property and methods visibility
Most of the protected properties and methods of GraphQL\Schema were changed to private.
Please use public interface instead.
Breaking: Node kind constants
Node kind constants were extracted from GraphQL\Language\AST\Node to
separate class GraphQL\Language\AST\NodeKind
Non-breaking: AST node classes renamed
AST node classes were renamed to disambiguate with types. e.g.:
GraphQL\Language\AST\Field -> GraphQL\Language\AST\FieldNode
GraphQL\Language\AST\OjbectValue -> GraphQL\Language\AST\OjbectValueNode
etc.
Old names are still available via class_alias defined in src/deprecated.php.
This file is included automatically when using composer autoloading.
Deprecations
There are several deprecations which still work, but trigger E_USER_DEPRECATED when used.
For example GraphQL\Executor\Executor::setDefaultResolveFn() is renamed to setDefaultResolver()
but still works with old name.
Upgrade v0.6.x > v0.7.x
There are a few new breaking changes in v0.7.0 that were added to the graphql-js reference implementation with the spec of April2016
1. Context for resolver
You can now pass a custom context to the GraphQL::execute function that is available in all resolvers as 3rd argument.
This can for example be used to pass the current user etc.
Make sure to update all calls to GraphQL::execute, GraphQL::executeAndReturnResult, Executor::execute and all
'resolve' callbacks in your app.
Before v0.7.0 GraphQL::execute signature looked this way:
GraphQL::execute(
$schema,
$query,
$rootValue,
$variables,
$operationName
);
Starting from v0.7.0 the signature looks this way (note the new $context argument):
GraphQL::execute(
$schema,
$query,
$rootValue,
$context,
$variables,
$operationName
);
Before v.0.7.0 resolve callbacks had following signature:
/**
* @param mixed $object The parent resolved object
* @param array $args Input arguments
* @param ResolveInfo $info ResolveInfo object
* @return mixed
*/
function resolveMyField($object, array $args, ResolveInfo $info) {
//...
}
Starting from v0.7.0 the signature has changed to (note the new $context argument):
/**
* @param mixed $object The parent resolved object
* @param array $args Input arguments
* @param mixed $context The context object hat was passed to GraphQL::execute
* @param ResolveInfo $info ResolveInfo object
* @return mixed
*/
function resolveMyField($object, array $args, $context, ResolveInfo $info){
//...
}
2. Schema constructor signature
The signature of the Schema constructor now accepts an associative config array instead of positional arguments:
Before v0.7.0:
$schema = new Schema($queryType, $mutationType);
Starting from v0.7.0:
$schema = new Schema([
'query' => $queryType,
'mutation' => $mutationType,
'types' => $arrayOfTypesWithInterfaces // See 3.
]);
3. Types can be directly passed to schema
There are edge cases when GraphQL cannot infer some types from your schema. One example is when you define a field of interface type and object types implementing this interface are not referenced anywhere else.
In such case object types might not be available when an interface is queried and query validation will fail. In that case, you need to pass the types that implement the interfaces directly to the schema, so that GraphQL knows of their existence during query validation.
For example:
$schema = new Schema([
'query' => $queryType,
'mutation' => $mutationType,
'types' => $arrayOfTypesWithInterfaces
]);
Note that you don't need to pass all types here - only those types that GraphQL "doesn't see" automatically. Before v7.0.0 the workaround for this was to create a dumb (non-used) field per each "invisible" object type.
