Guillotine 7 Update 1

Release features

Type definitions on NPM

Guillotine type definitions are now available on NPM. You can install them using the following command:

npm install @enonic/guillotine-types --save-dev

then use them in your code like this:

Import Guillotine type definitions from NPM
import type {GraphQL, Extensions} from '@enonic-types/guillotine';

import {ObjectTypeName} from '@enonic-types/guillotine';
siteKey

A new siteKey argument has been added to the guillotine field. This argument is optional and can be used instead of the X-Guillotine-SiteKey header.

Retrieve site’s displayName and child items using siteKey argument.
{
  guillotine(siteKey: "/my-site") {
    get(key: "${site}") {
      displayName
      children {
        displayName
        type
      }
    }
  }
}
modifyUnknownFields

A new graphql.extensions.modifyUnknownFields configuration option allows you to control how Guillotine handles unknown fields in the GraphQL schema. By default, Guillotine will throw an error if an unknown field is requested. You can now change this behaviour to ignore unknown fields or log a warning instead of throwing an error. See configuration for more information.

Guillotine 7

This release includes breaking changes
All media and content URLs in the pageUrl, imageUrl, mediaUrl, attachmentUrl fields and in the processedHtml field of RichText will be absolute (server) URLs generated in the context of your endpoint. If you want to use a different domain or base URL you should implement your own custom processing.

Release features

Extensions

Extensions are a new way how to extend the GraphQL schema. They are more powerful and flexible than the creationCallbacks in the Guillotine Lib. Now you can extend the GraphQL schema with custom types, input types, enums, unions, and interfaces, set or override data fetcher and type resolvers, modify already existing interfaces and types. See extensions for more information.

LocalContext

LocalContext allows sharing data between parent and child fields. See here for more information.

createDataFetcherResult function

This function allows you to create a DataFetcherResult object with the data and localContext fields to be returned from the data fetcher. See more information here.

Migrated from JS to Java

Guillotine has been fully reimplemented from JavaScript to Java. This transition has not only improved the performance and stability of the application but also enabled the implementation of more powerful and flexible ways of extending and customizing the GraphQL schema.

Breaking changes

Subscriptions are not supported anymore

Due to limited use, GraphQL subscriptions are not supported anymore. You have to implement your own solution for this without using Guillotine.

Params as JSON instead of String

For such fields as pageUrl, mediaUrl, imageUrl and attachmentUrl the params argument has Json type instead of String.

Site configuration

It is no longer possible to obtain the siteConfig from the dataAsJson and site fields of the Content type, as well as from the dataAsJson field of the portal_Site type.
