Usage Examples

Incorrect

# eslint @graphql-eslint/require-selections: 'error'
 
# In your schema
type User {
  id: ID!
  name: String!
}
 
# Query
query {
  user {
    name
  }
}

Correct

# eslint @graphql-eslint/require-selections: 'error'
 
# In your schema
type User {
  id: ID!
  name: String!
}
 
# Query
query {
  user {
    id
    name
  }
}
 
# Selecting `id` with an alias is also valid
query {
  user {
    id: name
  }
}

Config Schema

The schema defines the following properties:

fieldName

The object must be one of the following types:

• asString
• asArray

Default: "id"

requireAllFields (boolean)

Whether all fields of fieldName option must be included.

Sub Schemas

The schema defines the following additional types:

asString (string)

asArray (array)

When Not To Use It

Relay Compiler automatically adds an id field to any type that has an id field, even if it hasn’t been explicitly requested. Requesting a field that is not used directly in the code can conflict with another Relay rule: relay/unused-fields.
