Not sure if this is a Redwood error, or a user error, so posting here first, before creating a Github issue

Both yarn rw db save and yarn rw db up completes without errors. Then I scaffold the post CRUD, and that finishes without errors too. But when I then try to start the dev server I get this output

$ yarn rw dev

Trying to go to http://localhost:8910/posts I get “Something went wrong” and my browser console has this:

So, am I doing something wrong, or is Redwood doing something wrong? :slight_smile:

If I remove jsonData Json from the schema everything works as it should

Interesting… Do you have a posts.sdl.js file?

import gql from 'graphql-tag'

export const schema = gql`
  type Post {
    id: Int!
    title: String!
    jsonData: Json!
    createdAt: DateTime!
  }

  type Query {
    posts: [Post!]!
    post(id: Int!): Post!
  }

  input CreatePostInput {
    title: String!
    jsonData: Json!
  }

  input UpdatePostInput {
    title: String
    jsonData: Json
  }

  type Mutation {
    createPost(input: CreatePostInput!): Post!
    updatePost(id: Int!, input: UpdatePostInput!): Post!
    deletePost(id: Int!): Post!
  }

Err, packages/api/src/makeMergedSchema/rootSchema.ts: JSON: GraphQLJSON, that doesn’t look right, does it? I’ll dig in to that file and see if I can see something

I have no idea what I’m doing, but this seems to work so far…

in rootSchema.ts

export const schema = gql`
  scalar Date
  scalar Time
  scalar DateTime
  scalar Json
  scalar JSONObject

  type Redwood {
    version: String
    currentUser: Json
  }

  type Query {
    redwood: Redwood
  }
`

export const resolvers = {
  Date: GraphQLDate,
  Time: GraphQLTime,
  DateTime: GraphQLDateTime,
  Json: {
    ...GraphQLJSON,
    name: 'Json',
  },
  JSONObject: GraphQLJSONObject,
  Query: {
    redwood: () => ({
      version: apiPackageJson.version,
      currentUser: (_args: any, context: Context) => {
        return context?.currentUser
      }
    }),
  },
}

Just looping in here. Rob and I had a previous conversation about JSON when Prisma support first came out – it was buggy for awhile but I think it’s been resolved on their end: JSONB support (from Prisma 2.0.0.beta4)

However, this is the first time I know of anyone trying it with the RW Generators. You’re a trailblazer, Tobbe! :laughing:
