Ability to write custom resolvers in JavaScript

I think that could be pretty useful too

Thank you!

We support custom javascript scripting with the @script directive. It won't be too hard to extend that same code to build custom resolvers in JS. The core package has support for you to add custom resolvers in Go currently we have one for remote apis. I think adding another JS one can be done. https://github.com/dosco/graphjin/wiki/Guide-to-GraphQL#adding-business-logic-with-javascript

Here's some example code for a custom redis resolver. https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/dosco/graphjin/core#Resolver

Thank you for considering this!

I meant more like adding JS resolvers without having to compile GraphJin, i.e. by adding some configuration like "resolver (for something) is redisResolver-1.0.js" and then redisResolver-1.0.js is a file with some function (or better yet a class, so that you can have some persistent connection), which does all the heavy lifting.

That way people only with JS knowledge (or those who use standalone binary) will be able to add them.
