How do I upload info associated to different Model Types using AWS & GraphQL? - swift

Question

I have an app that I have been working on that allows users to upload a post and other users can send messages after seeing their post. I am using AWS Amplify as a backend and I am trying to store user messages in a DynamoDB table. I am able to successfully store user info in a DynamoDB table after they create an account and successfully upload a post. My problem starts when I try to message another user about their post.
I get this error after pressing send Failed to create graphql GraphQLResponseError<ChatMessage>: GraphQL service returned a successful response containing errors: [Amplify.GraphQLError(message: "The variables input contains a field name \'chatMessageAuthorId\' that is not defined for input object type \'CreateChatMessageInput\' ", locations: nil, path: nil, extensions: nil)] Recovery suggestion: The list of `GraphQLError` contains service-specific messages
My GraphQL Schema is the following:
type User
#model
#auth(rules: [{ allow: owner, operations: [create, delete, update]}]) {
id: ID!
userSub: String!
fullName: String!
conversations: [ConvoLink] #connection(name: "UserLinks")
messages: [ChatMessage] #connection(name: "UserMessages", keyField: "authorId")
createdAt: String
updatedAt: String
}
type Conversation
#model
#auth(rules: [{ allow: owner, ownerField: "members" }]) {
id: ID!
messages: [ChatMessage] #connection(name: "ConvoMsgs", sortField: "createdAt")
associated: [ConvoLink] #connection(name: "AssociatedLinks")
name: String!
members: [String!]!
createdAt: String
updatedAt: String
}
type ChatMessage
#model
#auth(rules: [{ allow: owner, ownerField: "authorId" }]) {
id: ID!
author: User #connection(name: "UserMessages", keyField: "authorId")
authorId: String
content: String!
conversation: Conversation! #connection(name: "ConvoMsgs")
messageConversationId: ID!
createdAt: String
updatedAt: String
}
type ConvoLink
#model(
mutations: { create: "createConvoLink", update: "updateConvoLink" }
queries: null
subscriptions: null
) {
id: ID!
user: User! #connection(name: "UserLinks")
convoLinkUserId: ID
conversation: Conversation! #connection(name: "AssociatedLinks")
convoLinkConversationId: ID!
createdAt: String
updatedAt: String
}
type Post #model
#auth(rules: [{ allow: owner, operations: [create, delete, update] }]) {
id: ID!
userSub: String!
filename: String!
description: String!
dateUploaded: String!
}
And this is my Swift code to send a message to another user.
#objc func sendMessage(){
currentUserSub = AWSMobileClient.default().userSub!
guard let message = messageBox.text else{return}
let formatter = DateFormatter()
formatter.dateFormat = "h:mm a"
let hourString = formatter.string(from: Date())
let user = User(userSub: currentUserSub, fullName: userFullName)
let conversation = Conversation(messages: List<ChatMessage>.init(), associated: List<ConvoLink>.init(), name: "Chat between \(currentUserSub) & \(otherUserSub)", members: [currentUserSub,otherUserSub], createdAt: hourString, updatedAt: hourString)
let chatMessage = ChatMessage(author: user, authorId: currentUserSub, content: message, conversation: conversation, messageConversationId: "\(currentUserSub) & \(otherUserSub)", createdAt: hourString, updatedAt: hourString)
_ = Amplify.API.mutate(request: .create(chatMessage)) { event in
switch event {
case .success(let result):
switch result {
case .success(let convo):
DispatchQueue.main.async {
print("Successfully created the convo: \(convo)")
self.messageButton.setTitle("Message Sent", for: .normal)
self.messageButton.isEnabled = false
}
case .failure(let graphQLError):
DispatchQueue.main.async {
print("Failed to create graphql \(graphQLError)")
self.messageButton.setTitle("An error has occured, try again.", for: .normal)
// self.checkIfOffline()
}
}
case .failure(let apiError):
print("Failed to create a message", apiError)
// self.checkIfOffline()
}
}
hideKeyboard()
print(message)
}
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I am fairly new to GraphQL and AWS.
