How to create conditional queries

[abhiche]

query getOrders($keyword: String!, $orderStartDate: String!, $orderEndDate: String!) {
  orders(filter: {
    _and: [
      {date_created: {_gte: $orderStartDate}}, 
      {date_created: {_lte: $orderEndDate}},
      {_or: [{phone: {_contains: $keyword}}, {shipping_name: {_contains: $keyword}}]}
    ]}, sort: ["-date_created"]) {
    id
    order_no
    date_created
    channel
    payment_method
    shipping_name
    phone
    total_amount
    status
  }
}

The API doesn't allow $keyword to be empty in the query.

Is there a way to build a query conditionally like below?

Eg:

$keyword.isNotEmpty() ? 
    _and: [
      {date_created: {_gte: $orderStartDate}}, 
      {date_created: {_lte: $orderEndDate}},
      {_or: [{phone: {_contains: $keyword}}, {shipping_name: {_contains: $keyword}}]}
    ]
    :
    _and: [
      {date_created: {_gte: $orderStartDate}}, 
      {date_created: {_lte: $orderEndDate}},
    ]

Thanks for reaching out @abhiche.

While I don't think the question is specific to this code-generator but a general GraphQL question, I believe the answer is: No.

The GraphQL language does not support any conditional expressions. Instead, what you can do is to expose the filter through a variable.

query getOrders($filter: FilterInputType) {
  orders(filter: $filter, sort: ["-date_created"]) {
    id
    order_no
    date_created
    channel
    payment_method
    shipping_name
    phone
    total_amount
    status
  }
}

This will allow you to conditionally generate any filter you need.
