Today, we are excited to release v0.6.0
This version contains breaking changes, you may need to manually resolve conflicts in your custom code. Read below for more details.
GraphQL and REST API advanced search
The search queries in GraphQL and REST API were updated with advanced filtering, sorting, and pagination:
Filters
You can filter the results of your search query by any field of the queried object, with advanced filters like startsWith, Contains and more. The available filters are determined by the data type of each field. (e.g. String. Boolean, DataTime)
query{
customers(where:{
firstName:{
contains:"jack"
}
}){
id
firstName
lastName
createdAt
updatedAt
}
}
Sorting
You can sort the results of your search query by using the orderBy parameter
query{
customers(orderBy:{
firstName:Asc
}
){
id
firstName
lastName
createdAt
updatedAt
}
}
Paginations
The search queries now support pagination using the skip and take parameters
query{
customers(
skip:10,
take:5
){
id
firstName
lastName
createdAt
updatedAt
}
}
Searchable flag
The Searchable flag in the entity field settings now determines whether the records can be searched based on the value of that field.
_Meta query in GraphQL
The new _EntitiesMeta API can be used to get the record count of a query.
The meta query support all the parameters that are supported in the FindMany query.
query{
_customersMeta(where:{
firstName:{
contains:"jack"
}
}){
count
}
}
The meta query can be used together with the findMany query in order to get the result count.
query customers($where: CustomerWhereInput, $orderBy: CustomerOrderByInput, $skip: Float, $take: Float) {
items: customers(where: $where, orderBy: $orderBy, skip: $skip, take: $take) {
id
createdAt
updatedAt
firstName
lastName
__typename
}
total: _customersMeta(where: $where, orderBy: $orderBy, skip: $skip, take: $take) {
count
__typename
}
}
New Admin UI built with react-admin
New and feature-reach Admin UI was built from scratch using React-Admin.
The new Admin UI includes pagination, sorting, and a master-details view.
The new admin UI is generated to a new folder named "admin-ui".
In case you already generated the admin UI with a previous version and pushed the code to GitHub, the previously generated code is left untouched in the "admin" folder.
Import data schema from Excel file
You can now create a full app, just by importing an Excel file or one of many other flat-file formats (e.g. CSV).
A visual entity diagram allows you to normalize the data schema before you create the app.
Rebuild app without changes
You can now rebuild your app and trigger a sync with GitHub and a deployment to sandbox even without making any changes in your app. The Commit button is available and enabled, so you can use it any time you need it.
Improved code generation
All DTOs, and models are now generated with an additional line break after each property for better readability.
