AbstractTypes
=============
An AbstractType contains fields that could be shared among
``graphene.ObjectType``, ``graphene.Interface``,
``graphene.InputObjectType`` or other ``graphene.AbstractType``.
The basics:
- Each AbstractType is a Python class that inherits from ``graphene.AbstractType``.
- Each attribute of the AbstractType represents a field (could be a ``graphene.Field`` or
``graphene.InputField`` depending on where is mounted)
Quick example
-------------
In this example UserFields is an ``AbstractType`` with a name. ``User`` and
``UserInput`` are two types that will have their own fields
plus the ones defined in ``UserFields``.
.. code:: python
import graphene
class UserFields(graphene.AbstractType):
name = graphene.String()
class User(graphene.ObjectType, UserFields):
pass
class UserInput(graphene.InputObjectType, UserFields):
pass
.. code::
type User {
name: String
}
inputtype UserInput {
name: String
}
