Encapsulate Transform

The encapsulate transform allows to easily encapsulate a specific schema into a single field under the root type.

For instance, if your handler created a schema like this, named mySchema:

type Query {
  something: String
}
 
type Mutation {
  doSomething: String
}

The encapsulate transform will change your schema to this:

type Query {
  mySchema: mySchemaQuery!
}
 
type Mutation {
  mySchema: mySchemaMutation!
}
 
type mySchemaQuery {
  something: String
}
 
type mySchemaMutation {
  doSomething: String
}

This transformer is useful when you have multiple APIs in your Mesh Gateway and you wish to have it wrapped with a name to better understand where each field is coming from.

To get started with this transform, install it:

npm i @graphql-mesh/transform-encapsulate

pnpm add @graphql-mesh/transform-encapsulate

yarn add @graphql-mesh/transform-encapsulate

bun add @graphql-mesh/transform-encapsulate
