Create Nexus tooling

[olup]

Hello, this is a general - and hopefuly naive - quetion. Being a nexus user from the early stage I am repeatedly in the need for a way to work and transform the nexus types.

Taking inspiration from typescript, I would absolutely love a way to create a new type from another type by whitelisting or blacklisting fields (like Pick and Omit). Other transformation types can be imagined.

I have been implementing tooling to generate new types around a given one (like the search result from the node type), but figuring a way to thus derive types is lost on me - except from registering fields as objects and use that in the definition block, but i'd like to offer a turnkey solution. Maybe by getting the generated "graphql-js" objects ?

It seems I can get infos about the types from the core export, but is that the way I should follow ? Is there something else ?

Thanks a lot.
