Overview of this book

Spring is a powerful and widely adopted framework for building scalable and reliable web applications in Java, complemented by Spring Boot, a popular extension to the framework that simplifies the setup and configuration of Spring-based applications. This book is an in-depth guide to harnessing Spring 6 and Spring Boot 3 for web development, offering practical knowledge of building modern robust web APIs and services. The book covers a wide range of topics that are essential for API development, including RESTful web service fundamentals, Spring concepts, and API specifications. It also explores asynchronous API design, security, designing user interfaces, testing APIs, and the deployment of web services. In addition to its comprehensive coverage, this book offers a highly contextual real-world sample app that you can use as a reference for building different types of APIs for real-world applications. This sample app will lead you through the entire API development cycle, encompassing design and specification, implementation, testing, and deployment. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to design, develop, test, and deploy scalable and maintainable modern APIs using Spring 6 and Spring Boot 3, along with best practices for bolstering the security and reliability of your applications and improving your application's overall functionality.

Implementing GraphQL mutations

As per the GraphQL schema, you are going to implement two mutations – addTag and addQuantity.

The addTag mutation takes productId and a collection of tags as arguments and returns the Product object. The addQuantity mutation takes productId and the quantity to add and returns Product.

Let’s add this implementation to the existing ProductDatafetcher class as shown in the following code block:

// rest of the ProductDatafetcher class code@DgsMutation(field = MUTATION.AddTag)
public Product addTags(
    @InputArgument("productId") String productId,
    @InputArgument(value = "tags", collectionType =
         TagInput.class) List<TagInput> tags) {
  return tagService.addTags(productId, tags);
}
@DgsMutation(field = MUTATION.AddQuantity)
public Product addQuantity(
      @InputArgument...
