[near-operation-file] Option to name generated files after operations instead of .grapqhl filenames

[msakrejda]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

We're looking at migrating from Apollo CLI for codegen. With Apollo, generated files are named after the operation defined in the GraphQL file. With graphql-code-generator and the near-operation-file preset, it looks like the generated files are always named after the source file name.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great to have an option to name the generated file after the operation, instead of after the source file, when using the near-operation-file preset.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatives are to remain on the deprecated Apollo codegen, or go through our project and rename a lot of imports (possibly writing a codemod for it). I'm sure many other users are facing a similar situation.

Additional context

Thanks for working on this library!

Also in the context of migrating from Apollo CLI, the generated types from near-operation-file incorrectly append the operation to the end of the operation name.

ie:

query Company($id: Int!) {
  company(id: $id) {
    id
    name
  }
}

will result in

export type CompanyQuery = { company: { __typename: 'Company', id: number, name: string }};

where

export type Company = { company: { __typename: 'Company', id: number, name: string }};

is expected

Turns out my comment above is incorrect. It is unrelated to near-operation-file but rather the plugin typescript-operations and there in fact is a config for it. https://the-guild.dev/graphql/codegen/plugins/typescript/typescript-operations#omitoperationsuffix

Facing the same issue. Is there a way to name the generated files after the operations ?

Facing the same issue as well. We would like to be able to name the generated file after the operation rather than the source file name. This causes a significant amount of refactoring work when making the transition from Apollo CLI

Hi all 👋

Here's a config filePerOperation which uses named operation in source documents to name generated files: #1399

For context, @ikusakov2 has been doing a lot of work to make the Apollo Tooling -> Codegen migration possible. His guide can be found here: https://the-guild.dev/graphql/codegen/docs/migration/apollo-tooling
(There's only a little more work to be done before it's available)
