Currently appsync schema definition mode is not strongly typed.

Use Case

Make schema definition more clearly configured. Set up for code-first schema definition.

Proposed Solution

by file

const api = new appsync.GraphQLApi(stack, 'api', {
  schemaDefinition: appsync.SchemaDefinition.FILE,
  schemaDefinitionFile: fileLocation
});

by code

const api = new appsync.GraphQLApi(stack, 'api', {
  schemaDefinition: appsync.SchemaDefinition.CODE,
});

api.updateDefinition(definition);
