Hey do you have any code or sample code repo which we can run and see how custom scalar works ?? because theortically hard to understand its usage

[ardatan]

You can refer to this documentation;

The codegen integration sample isn't great - can you explain why those three (and how to add more), and how the string type should be set, if at all?

[user928]

I tried this but it is not working for NonEmptyString

import { NonEmptyStringResolver } from 'graphql-scalars';

and then in CodegenConfig

config: {
scalars: {
NonEmptyString: NonEmptyStringResolver.extensions.codegenScalarType,
},
},

[ardatan]

PRs are welcome to improve the example. Those three are just for example. You can add more for sure.
For NonEmptyString, you can just use string.

[user928]

Thanks, but I was thinking that custom scalars like NonEmptyString will validate in runtime and prevent me from using empty string in my code, if I set it to just string, I can still use empty string in code without any ts warning

How are we supposed to use this with clientside codegen for something like a scalar Time which is the DateTime scalar in the libary?
