Interesting indeed. Do you have an example babashka script somewhere?

We found pathom-datomic to be a really nice default to get up and running. We use that as a "baseline", in order to not write a resolver for every single attribute in the DB, and then switch to resolvers for things where we need to inject more intelligence.

Though we're currently on Pathom 2.

Hi! Thanks so much @henrik. This is what I was thinking, starting out with pathom-datomic. Pathom3 looks tempting thought, esp. for a new/early stage project. Those two are incompatible though right? (i.e. pathom-datomic & pathom3)

I'm not sure @prnc, we haven't tried Pathom 3 yet. When you use Datomic, it's crucial that you can update the environment mid-mutation (since when you transact to Datomic, you need to get a new DB from the result, and inject it into the Pathom env in order for subsequent resolvers to use the correct DB for responses). I'm not sure if Pathom 3 has that yet (@wilkerlucio did take notice of this in a previous thread), but if it doesn't, I'd recommend sticking to Pathom 2 for the time being.

Alright! Will need to do some experimenting now I guess but this very helpful to get me started, thank you!

one thing to also consider is that Pathom 2 datomic support relies on reader3, which I suggest everyone to avoid, its a dropped experiment in Pathom 2, the Pathom 3 port for that should be easy enough, I'm currently working on dynamic resolvers support (starting with GraphQL because its a harder problem and will get more things clear)

@wilkerlucio Would you suggest that it's a better idea to go with Pathom 3 at this point, and just write the resolvers required, than to go with Pathom 2 + pathom-datomic + reader3?

at this exact point you couldn't use the Pathom Datomic with Pathom 3, the safe way to go still Pathom 2 + reader2 + manual resolvers. reader3 has issues that were fixes in Pathom 3 already (bad planning in some situations) but not backported (because there is a lot of non Pathom 2 related things on the Pathom 3 impl). But I'm getting confident with the basics in Pathom 3, experiments have been running fine, and Datomic for Pathom 3 is right around the corner (I guess 1 week, 2 tops), Pathom 3 + Datomic dynamic will be probably safer than Pathom 2 + reader3

> Datomic for Pathom 3 is right around the corner (I guess 1 week, 2 tops) that’s some good news, very exciting!
