Allow configuration of zod optional/null type

[peniqliotuv]

I'd love to use this library but since we redefine inputMaybeValue: 'T | undefined' in the graphql-codegen configuration, it's incompatible with the .nullish() that gets added to the zod schema when using graphql-codegen-tyespcript-validation-schema.

It would be great if we could have a configuration such as zodOptionalType that allowed us to specify optional or nullish.

@peniqliotuv Hi 👋

I'm sorry to delay this reply.

Could you tell me how to do this?

Hey @Code-Hex ! No worries.
Yea - I'm looking for an ability to customize the nullish values generated by graphql-codegen-typescript-validation-schema.
An example API that would be nice:

...
    config:
      maybeSchemaValue: 'nullish' | 'null' | 'undefined'

This value would default to nullish.

The behavior of nullish would be akin to what's currently in the plugin today.

z.nullish()

Providing null

z.null()

Providing undefined

z.optional()

I omitted the yup equivalents for simplicity's sake, but hopefully this makes it clearer!

I think instead of providing null, this should be nullable > .nullable().

Also to provide undefined, one needs to write optional, so that renders to .optional().

I'm also having this issue, my current workaround is to run sed -i 's/\.nullish()/.optional()/g' in afterAllFileWrite but it feels very hacky and prone to errors.
