How to download schema in SDL format?

[essaji]

Hey guys!

We are using graphQL schema in SDL format at our client side. I tried to download schema from the registry using apollo client:download-schema output.graphql but it looks like its downloading it in JSON format. I know we can convert it using printSchema function from graphql library but I was wondering is there already a way or flag which I can use to directly download it in SDL format?

If not, I will be happy to create a PR to add this feature, may be add another flag i.e. --sdl to download it in SDL format.

Thanks in anticipation

Hey @essaji, that sounds good to me. And it will help with our work in apollo service:codegen, as that operates from SDL as well. I'd probably configure this as --target SDL, for better uniformity with our other commands.

@skanygin @EmadKaizen It seems to be working fine for me (I'm on v2.21.2 at the moment). Keep in mind that this feature is only available when using the client:download-schema command, not when using the service:download command.
