Description

Product

Hot Chocolate

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Multiple times I've wanted to be able to filter on number of items in a list. Like return posts with more than 5 comments.

There are other ways to solve this, but it would simplify things if List filters had a count property that works like a comparable filter.

The solution you'd like

For a typical posts with comments example, something like this:

query {
  posts(where: { comments: { count: { gte: 5 } } }) {
    ...
  }
}

Research direction

The issue names Hot Chocolate list filters and the proposed GraphQL query, but no files or tests. Start by locating the list-filter implementation and existing comparable filter handling. Done means supporting the shown count comparison syntax and covering the behavior with tests.
