Amplify-cli: Resolvers in src/graphql not updating correctly on amplify push

I'm currently running version 1.1.7 of the amplify CLI.

I made a change to the graphql.schema and did amplify push but the files in src/graphql are not being updated to reflect that I removed a @model declaration. Is there a way to force rebuild those? Doing amplify api gql-compile does not do it. To be clear, mutations.js, queries.js, subscriptions.js and schema.json are all unchanged. My expectation is that they would be updated automatically whenever a change in graphql.schema is pushed.

I also just added a new model to my schema.grapql file, did amplify push, all of the services were updated with the new model but the files in src/graphql were not updated to reflect this change.

Is there a way to force this to happen?

@kaustavghosh06, this is the new issue that you asked me to create from the question in #992.
thanks.

[poppybank]

OK - I found amplify add codegen --apiId so that solves my problem. My question is why that isn't automatically running when I make changes, I think it did previously.

Is graphql.schema also reverting itself to the previous schema after amplify push?

[poppybank]

do you mean schema.graphql? It is not.

[jkeys-ecg-nmsu]

Yes, sorry. I was experiencing a similar issue, but the actual schema file itself reverted also (which led to me rewriting the same schema a couple of times before I realized what was happening lol). What is your development platform, Linux, Windows, WSL?

[poppybank]

I'm developing on Mac

@poppybank could you share your <project-root>/.graphqlconfig.yml file. Please redact sensitive info before sharing them.

Also when you do a push do you get asked if you want to generate code?

[poppybank]

@yuth I do not get asked if I want to generate code on a push.

Here's the .graphqlconfig.yml file.

projects:
  tweedcaseapi-dev:
    schemaPath: src/graphql/schema.json
    includes:
      - src/graphql/**/*.js
    excludes:
      - ./amplify/**
    extensions:
      amplify:
        graphQLApiId: <xxxx>
        codeGenTarget: javascript
        generatedFileName: ''
        docsFilePath: src/graphql
        region: us-west-2
        maxDepth: 3
      endpoints:
        prod: >-
          https://<xxx>.appsync-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/graphql

@poppybank is this .graphqlconfig.yml after you did amplify add codegen --apiId. If thats the case could you delete .graphqlconfig.yml the file and then run amplify codegen add and see the codegen happens when you push after that

[kaustavghosh06]

Closing this issue due to lack of requester response. Please feel free to re-open if you're still seeing this issue.

[poppybank]

Sorry, I missed that request. Yes, when I deleted .graphqlconfig.yml and did amplify codegen add it did start generating the code again on the next push. Thanks!
