GraphQL spec version

[xzyfer]

It would be good to have some indication of what version of the GraphQL spec this implementation is currently aligned with. The current version is graphql-js@v0.8.2.

The spec version is a little outdated, it is an implementation of the October 2015 spec. I have been following the spec but most of the changes to it seem non-critical, and mainly in the validation rules which we are yet to implement. I will update the implementation once I have more time on my hands, however it is production ready as it stands today. We've been using it for over a year now internally.

Hi, Any update on this? Would love to know when an updated spec implementation will be addressed.

For example, to enable descriptions closer to the current spec the parser could be updated like this...

func (parser *Parser) description() (string, error) {
        text := ""
        isBody := false
        token := parser.lookahead
        for token.Type == STRING {
                text += strings.Trim(token.Val, " ")
                if isBody {
                        text += " "
                } else {
                        isBody = true
                }
                err := parser.match(STRING)
                if err != nil {
                        return text, err
                }
                token = parser.lookahead
        }
        return text, nil
}

Obviously, it doesn't handle multi-line strings but at least it recognizes single-line strings properly. Btw, as a side-effect, multiple single-line strings one after the other simulate a multi-line strings without any issues as well. Many Thnxs!
