I'm trying to figure out cascade deletion in GraphQL.
I'm attempting to delete a node of type Question
, but type QuestionVote
has a required relation to Question
. I'm looking for a way to delete a Question
and all its votes at once.
Mutation for deleting a Question
:
type Mutation {
deleteQuestion(where: QuestionWhereUniqueInput!): Question!
}
And its resolver (I'm using Prisma):
function deleteQuestion(parent, args, context, info) {
const userId = getUserId(context)
return context.db.mutation.deleteQuestion(
{
where: {id: args.id}
},
info,
)
}
How can I modify that mutation to also delete related QuestionVote
nodes? Or should I add a separate mutation that deletes one or multiple instances of QuestionVote
?
In case it's important, here are the mutations that create Question
and QuestionVote
:
function createQuestion(parent, args, context, info) {
const userId = getUserId(context)
return context.db.mutation.createQuestion(
{
data: {
content: args.content,
postedBy: { connect: { id: userId } },
},
},
info,
)
}
async function voteOnQuestion(parent, args, context, info) {
const userId = getUserId(context)
const questionExists = await context.db.exists.QuestionVote({
user: { id: userId },
question: { id: args.questionId },
})
if (questionExists) {
throw new Error(`Already voted for question: ${args.questionId}`)
}
return context.db.mutation.createQuestionVote(
{
data: {
user: { connect: { id: userId } },
question: { connect: { id: args.questionId } },
},
},
info,
)
}
Thanks!
