### Option `graphqlSchemas`

When exact paths to GraphQL schemas are too cumbersome to provide in the `graphqlSchemaPaths`, use the `graphqlSchemas` block.
The parameters inside that block are the following:

| Key inside `graphqlSchemas` | Data Type    | Default value      | Description |
| --------------------------- | ------------ | ------------------ | ----------- |
| `rootDir`                   | String       | Main resources dir | The root directory from which to start searching for schema files. |
| `recursive`                 | Boolean      | `true`             | Whether to recursively look into sub directories. |
| `includePattern`            | String       | `.*\.graphqls?`    | A Java regex that file names must match to be included. It should be a regex as defined by the [Pattern](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html) JDK class. It will be used to match only the file name without path. |
| `excludedFiles`             | Set<String>  | (empty set)        | A set of files to exclude, even if they match the include pattern. These paths should be either absolute or relative to the provided `rootDir`. |


### Option `ApiInterfaceStrategy`

Defines how to generate interfaces (resolvers) for each operation: `Query`/`Mutation`/`Subscription`.
Provides ability to skip generation of separate interface class for each operation in favor of having a single "root" interface (see *[ApiRootInterfaceStrategy](#option-apirootinterfacestrategy)* and *[ApiNamePrefixStrategy](#option-apinameprefixstrategy)*)

| Value                                   | Description |
| --------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| `INTERFACE_PER_OPERATION` **(default)** | Generate separate interface classes for each GraphQL operation. |
| `DO_NOT_GENERATE`                       | Do not generate separate interfaces classes for GraphQL operation. |


### Option `ApiRootInterfaceStrategy`

Defines how root interface (`QueryResolver` / `MutationResolver` / `SubscriptionResolver` will be generated (in addition to separate interfaces for each query/mutation/subscription)

| Value                            | Description |
| -------------------------------- | ----------- |
| `INTERFACE_PER_SCHEMA`           | Generate multiple super-interfaces for each graphql file. <br>Takes into account `apiNamePrefixStrategy`. <br>E.g.: `OrderServiceQueryResolver.java`, `ProductServiceQueryResolver.java`, etc. |
| `SINGLE_INTERFACE` **(default)** | Generate a single `QueryResolver.java`, `MutationResolver.java`, `SubscriptionResolver.java` for all graphql schema files. |
| `DO_NOT_GENERATE`                | Do not generate super interface for GraphQL operations. |


### Option `ApiNamePrefixStrategy`

Defines which prefix to use for API interfaces.

| Value                    | Description |
| ------------------------ | ----------- |
| `FILE_NAME_AS_PREFIX`    | Will take GraphQL file name as a prefix for all generated API interfaces + value of `apiNamePrefix` config option. <br>E.g.:<br> * following schemas: *resources/schemas/order-service.graphql*, *resources/schemas/product-service.graphql*<br> * will result in: `OrderServiceQueryResolver.java`, `ProductServiceQueryResolver.java`, etc |
| `FOLDER_NAME_AS_PREFIX`  | Will take parent folder name as a prefix for all generated API interfaces + value of `apiNamePrefix` config option. E.g.:<br> * following schemas: *resources/order-service/schema1.graphql*, *resources/order-service/schema2.graphql*<br> * will result in: `OrderServiceQueryResolver.java`, `OrderServiceGetOrderByIdQueryResolver.java`, etc |
| `CONSTANT` **(default)** | Will take only the value of `apiNamePrefix` config option. |


### Option `parentInterfaces`

Following options can be defined if you want generated resolvers to extend certain interfaces.
Can be handy if you are using [graphql-java-tools](https://github.com/graphql-java-kickstart/graphql-java-tools) and want your resolver classes to extend only interfaces generated by this plugin.

**Note:** if you want to include a GraphQL type name into the interface name, then use `{{TYPE}}` placeholder. E.g.: `graphql.kickstart.tools.GraphQLResolver<{{TYPE}}>`

| Key inside `parentInterfaces` | Data Type | Default value | Description |
| ----------------------------- | --------- | ------------- | ----------- |
| `queryResolver`               | String    | Empty         | Interface that will be added as "extend" to all generated api Query interfaces. |
| `mutationResolver`            | String    | Empty         | Interface that will be added as "extend" to all generated api Mutation interfaces. |
| `subscriptionResolver`        | String    | Empty         | Interface that will be added as "extend" to all generated api Subscription interfaces. |
| `resolver`                    | String    | Empty         | Interface that will be added as "extend" to all generated TypeResolver interfaces. |


### Option `customTypesMapping`

Can be used to supply custom mappings for scalars. 

Supports following formats:
* Map of (GraphQLObjectName.fieldName) to (JavaType). E.g.: `Event.dateTime = java.util.Date` 
* Map of (GraphQLType) to (JavaType). E.g.: `EpochMillis = java.time.LocalDateTime`


### Option `customAnnotationsMapping`

Can be used to supply custom annotations (serializers) for scalars.
`@` in front of the annotation class is optional. 

Supports following formats:
* Map of (GraphQLObjectName.fieldName) to (JavaAnnotation). E.g.: `Event.dateTime = @com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonDeserialize(using = com.example.DateDeserializer.class)`
* Map of (GraphQLType) to (JavaAnnotation). E.g.: `EpochMillis = @com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonDeserialize(using = com.example.EpochMillisDeserializer.class)`


### Option `directiveAnnotationsMapping`

Can be used to supply custom annotations for directives in a following format: 
Map of (GraphQL.directiveName) to (JavaAnnotation). E.g.: `auth = @org.springframework.security.access.annotation.Secured({{roles}})`.
`@` in front of the annotation class is optional.

**Note:** In order to supply the value of directive argument to annotation, use placeholder `{{directiveArgument}}`. 
You can also use one of the formatters for directive argument value: `{{val?toString}}`, `{{val?toArray}}`, `{{val?toArrayOfStrings}}`.



### Option `relayConfig`

Can be used to supply a custom configuration for Relay support.
For reference see: https://www.graphql-java-kickstart.com/tools/relay/

| Key inside `relayConfig` | Data Type | Default value              | Description |
| ------------------------ | --------- | -------------------------- | ----------- |
| `directiveName`          | String    | `connection`               | Directive name used for marking a field. |
| `directiveArgumentName`  | String    | `for`                      | Directive argument name that contains a GraphQL type name. |
| `connectionType`         | String    | `graphql.relay.Connection` | Generic Connection type. |

For example, the following schema:
```
type Query { users(first: Int, after: String): UserConnection @connection(for: "User") }
```
will result in generating the interface with the following method:
```
graphql.relay.Connection<User> users(Integer first, String after) throws Exception;
```



### External mapping configuration

Provide a path to external file via property `jsonConfigurationFile`
Sample content of the file:

```json
{
  "generateApis": true,
  "packageName": "com.kobylynskyi.graphql.testconfigjson",
  "customTypesMapping": {
    "Price.amount": "java.math.BigDecimal"
  }
}
```
