Rails GraphQL query on nested type

Rails GraphQL query on nested type


0

I have a rails app and I use gem GraphQL.
The app contain this type in:

app/graphql/types/category_type.rb

module Types
  class CategoryType < Types::BaseObject
    field :id, ID, null: false
    field :name, String, null: false
    field :weight, Integer, null: false
    field :parent_id, Integer
    field :categories, [Types::CategoryType]
    field :shoes, [Types::ShoeType]

    def categories
      object.categories.all
    end

    def shoes()
        object.shoes.all
    end
  end
end

and this query in

app/graphql/types/query_type.rb

field :category, CategoryType, "Find shoes by category" do
      argument :name, String
      argument :order_by, String
    end
    def category(name:, order_by:)
      @category = Category.find_by(name: name)
      if order_by == "name"
          @category.shoes = @category.shoes.order(name: :asc)
      elsif order_by == "popularity"
          @category.shoes = @category.shoes.order(popularity: :asc)
      end
      @category
    end

This line of code: @category.shoes = @category.shoes.order(name: :asc) does absolutely nothing.
How can I query one category and have all the shoes belonging to that category ordered by my custom order option?

I have tried to do this in

app/graphql/types/category_type.rb

field :shoes, [ShoeType], null: true do
      argument :order_by, String, required: false
    end
...
def shoes(order_by: nil)
      if order_by == "popularity"
        object.shoes.all.order(order: :asc)
      elsif order_by == "name"
        object.shoes.all.order(name: :asc)
      else
        object.shoes.all
      end
    end

app/graphql/types/query_type.rb

field :category, CategoryType, "Find shoes by category" do
      argument :name, String
    end
    def category(name:)
      @category = Category.find_by(name: name)
      @category
    end

But when I query with this:

query { category (name: "Casual") {name shoes(order_by: "popularity"){name} } }

I get this error:

"message": "Field 'shoes' doesn't accept argument 'order_by'"
