Multiline description to generated schema

[sunghwan-daim]

Using HotChocolate as a GraphQL backend, it would be great if it could generate a schema file with a block string description for better readability.

Given code

public class Query {
    [GraphQLDescription("""
        abc
        def
        """)]
    public string GetApplicationName() => "app";
}

generates a schema like:

type Query {
  """
  abc
  def
  """
  applicationName: String!
}

I am not sure if i understand this correctly. This works already as you describe.

I made a small repo.

When I download schema by visiting http://127.0.0.1:5294/graphql?sdl, HotChocolate outputs single-line descriptions with ugly \n character (\r\n in CRLF encoding btw).

schema {
  query: BookService
  subscription: Subscriptions
}

type Book {
  id: Int!
}

"hi\nhello"
type BookService {
  "hello\nworld"
  books(count: Int!): [Book!]!
}

type Subscriptions {
  bookPublished(seed: Int!): Book!
}

I want "hi\nhello" to be

"""
hi
hello
"""

Thanks!

Did this get completed? It's related to an issue in an Apollo repo here: apollographql/apollo-ios#3553 (comment)

I think there is a test for this, so it should work...:

graphql-platform/src/HotChocolate/Core/test/Types.Tests/Types/DescriptionTests.cs

Lines 306 to 311 in b7c00cf

	[InterfaceType("SomeInterface")]
	[GraphQLDescription("""
	Multi line
	comment
	""")]
	public interface ISomeInterface

graphql-platform/src/HotChocolate/Core/test/Types.Tests/Types/__snapshots__/DescriptionTests.Schema_With_All_Possible_Descriptions.graphql

Lines 11 to 15 in b7c00cf

	"""
	Multi line
	comment
	"""
	interface SomeInterface {

How do you get the schema? by ast? by url?
By url, this is working: http://localhost/graphql/schema.graphql

Sorry, I didn't see that this was marked as resolved, I just saw that it was closed. We are using an older version of HotChocolate and will need to update to 14.0 to fix this. Thank you.
