Usage with GraphQL

This library also exposes GraphQL resolvers and type definations.

es6

import { countries, locales } from "@doubco/countries/graphql";

export default {
  typeDefs: [
    countries.typeDefs, // this is it.
    locales.typeDefs, // this is it.
    User.typeDefs,
    Log.typeDefs,
  ...
  ],
  resolvers: merge(
    countries.resolvers, // this is it.
    locales.resolvers, // this is it.
    Auth.resolvers,
    User.resolvers,
    ...
  ),
};

nodejs

const { countries, locales } = require("@doubco/countries/graphql");

module.exports = {
  typeDefs: [
    countries.typeDefs, // this is it.
    locales.typeDefs, // this is it.
    Auth.typeDefs,
    User.typeDefs,
    Log.typeDefs,
  ...
  ],
  resolvers: merge(
    countries.resolvers, // this is it.
    locales.resolvers, // this is it.
    Auth.resolvers,
    User.resolvers,
    ...
  ),
};

This usage is for Apollo Server, you can use similar approach on other frameworks.
