This doc does a good job explaining/breaking down the resolver map https://www.apollographql.com/docs/graphql-tools/resolvers/#resolver-function-signature. What it names obj
we named root
.
The rule for the type of root
is pretty simple, root
is just the parent type of the field.
For example, the name
resolver for the below type would have the signature: name: (root: Foo): string
, because name
is defined within Foo
.
type Foo {
id: ID!
name: String!
}
https://graphql-code-generator.com is able to generate the correct type for root
for every field in our schema based on what is defined by us in the SDL.
The generated types aren't the most strait forward to read through, but looking at the definition for Resolvers
may help show this (https://github.com/DerekCuevas/workshop/blob/master/backend/src/index.ts#L3)

I'm not quite sure I fully understand this question. Specifically, i'm uncertain about what you mean by "since it has to resolve every field of every object". But, will try to answer, let me know if this gets at what you were wondering about.
When resolving a GraphQL query, on the server, only the field resolvers for fields specified in the query will be executed. Similarly, only data for those fields will be encoded and sent to the client.
A benefit of this, when compared to a traditional REST endpoint, would be that clients can specific only the fields they need to use. This helps clients minimize the size of the corresponding response. So if anything, I would say that GraphQL is more optimal in this regard when compared to REST.
