Unions In Typegraphql

Following up our previous post on generic types, we created a ServiceResponse<T> type which had a statusCode: string field to differentiate between the responses. In Typescript, a common pattern to differentiate between success and error is to create a union. In today’s post, we will see how we can leverage typegraphql to translate Typescript unions into graphql schema unions.

Data classes make is easier to construct a class with a name and meaning while keeping the value aspect in term of equality. In today’s post we will see how we can define data classes using the dataclass decorator from the dataclasses module.
