JS heap out of memory when trying to generate schema with nested fields
Which packages are impacted by your issue?
@graphql-codegen/cli, @graphql-codegen/add, @graphql-codegen/typescript-operations, @graphql-codegen/typescript
Describe the bug
The issue is that as soon as I add a WPGraphQL Gutenberg query, which has some nested blocks->innerBlocks->..., the whole CLI crashes after it hung up for a few minutes, trying to create a gigantic infinite nested schema file.
Your Example Website or App
https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-gsvfa1
Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue
Open the Stackblitz, try to run npm run dev. You will see that it gets stuck while trying to generate the schema and after a few minutes, will throw a JS heap out of memory error.
Expected behavior
I expect the CLI to have a mechanism built-in that stops the infinite nesting type generation at e.g. 10 nesting levels and just adds "any". This could be configurable.
