I think there's definitely value in supporting a common set of schema definitions type resolvers as a standalone package (which then could be used by graphql-yoga).

I remember @RomanGotsiy and @IvanGoncharov coming up with the same idea. Would be great to hear their thoughts!

We still have this idea and to release such package. However, it blocked by graphql/graphql-spec#326 since if you define custom scalars without specifying underlying serialization type you create a lot of problems for tooling and especially for code generation.

@IvanGoncharov as I guess its still a draft implementation and I think we can add those scalars today and describe serialization type for them when it will be possible and stable.

There's already graphql-iso-date for date scalars, and graphql-type-json for JSON types. I don't think we need to reinvent them again.

@kbrandwijk my proposal was just to use already implemented scalars and put the in graphql-yoga out of the box.

@playerx Yes, and I completely agree with that. My response was more for @IvanGoncharov who mentioned releasing another package like that.

This is also related to prisma-labs/prisma-binding#15

@kbrandwijk In graphql-js 0.12.x you don't need to use any external package for JSON scalar since all scalars by default will accept all values:
https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/blob/master/src/type/definition.js#L498
Just define it as scalar JSON inside your SDL schema 🎉

As for package I planning to do I have a few very specific features in mind not sure if it will work like intended but I will try 😄

Hey 👋, It seems like this issue has been inactive for some time. In need for maintaining clear overview of the issues concerning the latest version of graphql-yoga we'll close it.
Feel free to reopen it at any time if you believe we should futher discuss its content. 🙂

Hey, @Urigo from The Guild here!

You might know us from projects such as graphql-code-generator, envelop or graphql-tools.

For a long time we thought that the Javascript ecosystem is still missing a lightweight cross-platform, but still highly customizable GraphQL Server.

In the past the awesome Prisma team took on that great challenge and now we are happy to announce that we are continuing them and just released GraphQL Yoga 2.0 - Build fast, extensible, and batteries-included (Subscriptions, Serverless, File uploads support) GraphQL APIs in Node.js 🚀

And regarding the issue here, we also maintain the GraphQL Scalars library

We have been working a long time on version 2.0 and have been using it in our clients projects for a few months now and shared a couple of alpha cycles here.
Thank you all for your feedback and suggestions, you made this release possible!

Please try Yoga out again, give us feedback and help us spread the word on the new release!
