How to use an extending package

Install the package from Nuget

First step is to install the package from Nuget. This can be done by:

dotnet add NAME_OF_PACKAGE

Register the queries, mutations or subscriptions

If the extending package includes new queries you need to register these in the startup.cs. This can be done like this:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
services.AddUmbraco(_env, _config)
    .AddBackOffice()
    .AddWebsite()
    .AddComposers()
    .AddUHeadless(new() {
        UHeadlessGraphQLOptions = new() {
            GraphQLExtensions = (IRequestExecutorBuilder builder) => {
                builder.AddMaxExecutionDepthRule(10);
                builder.AddTypeExtension<BasicContentQuery>();
                builder.AddTypeExtension<BasicPropertyQuery>();
                builder.AddTypeExtension<BasicMediaQuery>();
                return builder;
            },
        },
    })
    .Build();
}

It’s important here to also include the queries you’re already using because this setting overrules the default settings. By default BasicContentQuery, BasicPropertyQuery and BasicMediaQuery is registered as in the code example above.
