2) is easy, but leads to two queries no matter what, because you have to do a whereIn 3) here's the code: const EagerQL = (info, allowed) => { let fields = info.operation.selectionSet.selections[0].selectionSet.selections; return fields .map(field => field.name.value) .filter(field => allowed.includes(field)); }; // in a resolver user(_, args, context, info) { let eagers = EagerQL(info); console.log(eagers); // ['posts'] } This will give you fields that were queried for so you can do a big join. Hope this helps someone :P
