Question: Transform output of M:M relationship

[rryter]

Hello :-)

I'm currently trying to achieve the following:

schema.prisma

model Post {
  tags Tag[]
}

model Tag {
  name String @unique
  posts Post[]
}

This generates the correct DB tables and queries (pal g).

But now I would like to be able receive tags as an array of strings, and not objects. I would like to be able to query it like this:

Post{
      tags
    }

I would like to avoid the following:

Post{
   tags{
     name
   }
}

Is this even possible? I was thinking I should just be able to add a .map in the resolver but it does not seem to be as simple as that.

Thank you very much.

sorry you can't because to query tag name from the DB, you must ask it in your query like

Post{
   tags{
     name
   }
}

so my Select plugin can convert to

prisma.post.findUnique({
  select: {
    tags: {
      select: {
        name: true,
      },
    },
  },
})

I see that you take the query result and make your map to return the name in your frontend
