Derive Macro NewType

#[derive(NewType)]
{
    // Attributes available to this derive:
    #[graphql]
}

Define a NewType Scalar

It also implements From<InnerType> and Into<InnerType>.

Macro attributes

Attribute	description	Type	Optional
name	If this attribute is provided then define a new scalar, otherwise it is just a transparent proxy for the internal scalar.	string	Y
visible(Only valid for new scalars)	If false, it will not be displayed in introspection. See also the Book.	bool	Y
visible(Only valid for new scalars)	Call the specified function. If the return value is false, it will not be displayed in introspection.	string	Y
specified_by_url(Only valid for new scalars)	Provide a specification URL for this scalar type, it must link to a human-readable specification of the data format, serialization and coercion rules for this scalar.	string	Y
inaccessible	Indicate that an object is not accessible from a supergraph when using Apollo Federation	bool	Y
tag	Arbitrary string metadata that will be propagated to the supergraph when using Apollo Federation. This attribute is repeatable	string	Y

Examples

Use the original scalar name

use async_graphql::*;

#[derive(NewType)]
struct Weight(f64);

struct Query;

#[Object]
impl Query {
    async fn value(&self) -> Weight {
        Weight(1.234)
    }
}

// Test conversion
let weight: Weight = 10f64.into();
let weight_f64: f64 = weight.into();

let schema = Schema::build(Query, EmptyMutation, EmptySubscription).data("hello".to_string()).finish();

let res = schema.execute("{ value }").await.into_result().unwrap().data;
assert_eq!(res, value!({
    "value": 1.234,
}));

let res = schema.execute(r#"
{
    __type(name: "Query") {
        fields {
            name type {
                kind
                ofType { name }
            }
        }
    }
}"#).await.into_result().unwrap().data;
assert_eq!(res, value!({
    "__type": {
