Introspection

Subtopics

Like many other programming languages EdgeQL has an operator that checks whether a given object is an instance of a particular type. This is a run-time check and it takes inheritance into consideration. Try applying it to different Content objects:

Input

Run

select Content {
  id,
  __type__: {
    name
  },
  is_uploaded_type := Content is Show
};

select Content {
  id,
  __type__: {
    name
  },
  is_uploaded_type := Content is Show
};
