Tag Name: v1.0.15
Release Date: 8/4/2022
Payload CMSPayload CMS is a modern, self-hosted headless content management system built with TypeScript, Node.js, and MongoDB. It's designed specifically for developers who want full control over their content management system while maintaining a powerful admin interface for content editors.
TL;DR
Payload CMS v1.0.15 introduces a minor but important update that threads the forceNullable parameter through the buildObjectType function. This change improves type handling in GraphQL schemas, ensuring that object types can be properly marked as nullable when required. While this is a small update, it enhances the consistency and reliability of GraphQL schema generation within Payload CMS.
Highlight of the Release
- Improved GraphQL schema generation with proper nullable type handling
- Enhanced consistency in object type definitions
