Documentation: How to filter a set?

[sebastianmacias]

I'm looking at the example:

const myQuery = gql`{
  fish {
    red {
      name
    }

    blue {
      _chain
    }

    friends(type: Set) {
      name
      favoriteColor
    }
  }
}`;

it there a way to return only the friends whose favoriteColor is gold instead the of the full set?

Hey Sebastian, hope you are enjoying playing around with this. Since there is no filter query in gundb (that I know of) the only way I could think to do this is in JavaScript.

I would be happy to entertain any suggestions, be it custom query params or a built in filter parameter.

Thanks for your reply @brysgo.

Maybe a package like lodash-query or array-query could be integrated to make graphql-gun even more helpful. I am willing to contribute once I'm a little bit more experienced with gun.js. I just started using gun.js on some small projects a few months ago but I'm definitely often needing to further filter my query sets in javascript. I think it would save me a lot of time if it was part of this library.

Great, excited to hear some ideas once you get there!

It is a must has feature. Is there any update on this issue?

This shouldn't be that difficult to tackle for anyone who is interested. Especially if it is must has :-D
