Marking fields as deprecated with graphql shorthand

Question

I'm using GraphQL shorthand to specify the types in a schema, eg

type Car {
  id: ID!
  make: String
  model: String
  description: String
}

Using this shorthand, is there a way to mark a field as deprecated? Say I wanted to mark description as deprecated. Here's my wild guess on how to do this.

type Car {
  id: ID!
  make: String
  model: String
  @deprecated
  description: String
}

But no dice. Is field deprecation achievable in GraphQL shorthand?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Yup, you can mark fields as deprecated like this:

type Car {
  id: ID!
  make: String
  model: String
  description: String @deprecated(reason: "Field is deprecated!")
}
