How to resolve subselections / relations in prisma (nested lists) - graphql

Question

Let's take an example from the github repo of prisma:
We have a user, the user could have multiple posts, and one post could have multiple links.
My goal is, to retrieve all posts and all links.
This means, my response is a list (links) in a list (posts).
I want to map the values I get back as two nested lists.
datamodel.prisma
type User {
id: ID! #id
email: String! #unique
name: String
posts: [Post]!
}
type Post {
id: ID! #id
createdAt: DateTime! #createdAt
updatedAt: DateTime! #updatedAt
published: Boolean! #default(value: false)
title: String!
content: String
author: User!
links: [Link]!
}
type Link {
id: ID! #id
url: String
title: String
post: Post!
}
schema.graphql
type Query {
...
}
type Mutation {
...
}
type Link {
id: ID!
url: String
title: String
post: Post!
}
type Post {
id: ID!
createdAt: DateTime!
updatedAt: DateTime!
published: Boolean!
title: String!
content: String
author: User!
}
type User {
id: ID!
email: String!
name: String
posts: [Post]!
}
I want to query all posts of a user, and all of the links for every post in the response.
How would I query this request?
user {
id
posts {
id
links {
id
}
}
}
The above code snipper would not work.
EDIT
I want to use the following:
User: {
listPosts: (parent, args, context, info) {
return context.prisma.posts().links()
}
}
So in my response (data in front-end via react-apollo Query Component), I want to map over posts AND the links in each post.
BUT the links attribute in posts is null.
Is there another way to achieve this?!

According to the docs:
Prisma client has a fluent API to query relations in your database. Meaning you can simply chain your method calls to navigate the relation properties of the returned records. This is only possible when retrieving single records, not for lists. Meaning you can not query relation fields of records that are returned in a list.
In order to get around that limitation, you can use the $fragment method:
const fragment = `
fragment UserWithPostsAndLinks on User {
id
email
name
posts {
id
title
content
links {
id
url
title
}
}
}
`
const userWithPostsAndLinks = await prisma.user({ id: args.id }).$fragment(fragment)
