Excluding Fields

There are two ways to ensure the GraphQL schema generation omits fields when using Kotlin reflection:

• The first is by marking the field as non-public scope (private, protected, internal)
• The second method is by annotating the field with @GraphQLIgnore.

class SimpleQuery {
  @GraphQLIgnore
  fun notPartOfSchema() = "ignore me!"

  private fun privateFunctionsAreNotVisible() = "ignored private function"

  fun doSomething(value: Int): Boolean = true
}

The above query would produce the following GraphQL schema:

type Query {
  doSomething(value: Int!): Boolean!
}

Note that the public method notPartOfSchema is not included in the schema.
