apollo-android v2.4.2 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-11-02 // over 3 years ago

  • 🔖 Version 2.4.2 is a maintenance release with language improvements and fixes, better SQL cache debug, Websocket management and more.

    SDL type extensions

    👍 Type extensions are now supported in SDL schemas. SDL schema can now include extension like below:

    extend type Starship { shieldLevel: Float!}

    0️⃣ Variable default values

    0️⃣ Apollo Android now supports default values for variables (#2709)

    query GetHero( $myBool: Boolean = true, $unit: LengthUnit! = FOOT, $listOfInts: [Int] = [1, 2, 3] ) { ...}

    will generate:

    data class GetHero( val myBool: Input\<Boolean\> = Input.optional(true), val unit: LengthUnit = LengthUnit.safeValueOf("FOOT"), val listOfInts: Input\<List\<Int?\>\> = Input.optional(listOf(1, 2, 3)) )

    ⚡️ This only works for scalar types and their list/nonnull declinations. Full support for input object will be added later. Follow #2572 for updates

    👍 Better subscription Websocket management

    SubscriptionManger.reconnect is now exposed as public API. It can be called to reconnect a WebSocket if credentials/token needs to be refreshed.
