Nexus v2 Ideas / Checklist

[tgriesser]

Adding this as a running list of plans/ideas, will continue to add to it:

• Drop official support for GraphQL 14
• Continue to refine nexus-decorators APIs & add into core: import { nxs } from 'nexus/decorators' edit: not going to do this
• Add additional builder api for constructing field args:

t.field('users', {
  args(a) {
    a.field('status', { type: 'Status' })
    a.list.id('ids')
  }
})

• Docs for schema stitching & mergeSchema
• Deprecate nullabilityGuardPlugin / remove from core
• More configuration for type generation, along the lines of feat: ConfiguredTypegen for splitting global types & configuring input type emission #967
• Add extendType({ name }) syntax, for consistency with other definition blocks
• Remove export * from plugins, only export the top level API, not all of the types

Since it seems more and more people are using subscriptions these days, enhancing the SubscriptionBuilder support (or refactoring somehow so it works the same as ObjectDefinitionBlock, etc) would be great!

I was recently trying to write a plugin to support automatically generating "graphql relay modern" style Input/Payload types for subscriptions (similar to an existing one, "nexus-plugin-relay-mutation" for mutations) and eventually realized subscriptions use a completely different builder that is not extensible with plugins. Was confused why my added dynamicOutputMethod wasn't showing up in the typeBuilder...
