<blockquote>
<p><a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Enums">GraphQL enum</a> types, like <a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Scalars">scalar</a> types, also represent leaf values in a GraphQL type system. However <a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Enums">enum</a> types describe the set of possible values.</p>
<p><a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Enums">Enums</a> are not references for a numeric value, but are unique values in their own right. They may serialize as a string: the name of the represented value.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>With <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a> a <a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Enums">GraphQL enum</a> may be defined by using the <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper/0.16.0/juniper/derive.GraphQLEnum.html"><code>#[derive(GraphQLEnum)]</code></a> attribute on a <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/enumerations.html">Rust enum</a> as long as its variants do not have any fields:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2021"><span class="boring">extern crate juniper;
</span><span class="boring">use juniper::GraphQLEnum;
</span><span class="boring">
</span>#[derive(GraphQLEnum)]
enum Episode {
NewHope,
Empire,
Jedi,
}
<span class="boring">
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {}</span></code></pre></pre>
<h3 id="renaming"><a class="header" href="#renaming">Renaming</a></h3>
<p>By default, <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/enumerations.html">enum</a> variants are converted from <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org">Rust</a>'s standard <code>PascalCase</code> naming convention into <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a>'s <code>SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE</code> convention:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2021"><span class="boring">extern crate juniper;
</span><span class="boring">use juniper::GraphQLEnum;
</span><span class="boring">
</span>#[derive(GraphQLEnum)]
enum Episode {
NewHope, // exposed as `NEW_HOPE` in GraphQL schema
Empire, // exposed as `EMPIRE` in GraphQL schema
Jedi, // exposed as `JEDI` in GraphQL schema
}
<span class="boring">
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {}</span></code></pre></pre>
<p>We can override the name by using the <code>#[graphql(name = "...")]</code> attribute:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2021"><span class="boring">extern crate juniper;
</span><span class="boring">use juniper::GraphQLEnum;
</span><span class="boring">
</span>#[derive(GraphQLEnum)]
#[graphql(name = "WrongEpisode")] // now exposed as `WrongEpisode` in GraphQL schema
enum Episode {
#[graphql(name = "LAST_HOPE")]
NewHope, // exposed as `LAST_HOPE` in GraphQL schema
Empire,
Jedi,
}
<span class="boring">
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {}</span></code></pre></pre>
<p>Or provide a different renaming policy for all the <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/enumerations.html">enum</a> variants:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2021"><span class="boring">extern crate juniper;
</span><span class="boring">use juniper::GraphQLEnum;
</span><span class="boring">
</span>#[derive(GraphQLEnum)]
#[graphql(rename_all = "none")] // disables any renaming
enum Episode {
NewHope, // exposed as `NewHope` in GraphQL schema
Empire, // exposed as `Empire` in GraphQL schema
Jedi, // exposed as `Jedi` in GraphQL schema
}
<span class="boring">
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {}</span></code></pre></pre>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>TIP</strong>: Supported policies are: <code>SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE</code>, <code>camelCase</code> and <code>none</code> (disables any renaming).</p>
