Support Select Query

[andr-ec]

Thanks for taking the time to build this, just tried it and it works great!
One thing I'm seeing missing is the select query param: https://payloadcms.com/docs/queries/select

So it would involve steps:

• allowing the select query param in openapi
• allowing all fields to be nullable

The second step is little more involved, basically when select is used, any field can be null. This helps with optimized queries. So maybe a couple of options here would be: add an option to make all fields nullable, or add to the schema types that are nullable when the select query is used.

Would like to hear your thoughts and would be happy to contribute back.

Hi, I'm glad you like the plugin! I'm hesitant towards making all attributes of the responses of all list endpoints nullable - that would make the spec harder to use for everyone who doesn't need the select option. And I believe that would be the majority of users.

If this could somehow be done conditionally based on the select option, then that would be great, but I can't think of a way to express this in OpenAPI. Do you have something in mind?

I'm not sure about doing it conditionally based on the select option. I can look for into that and report back.

But how about just adding an option in the config like:

    openapi({
      openapiVersion: '3.0',
      allNullable: true
    }),

then it would be completely opt in.

Good point, making this configurable seems like the right way to go.
