#### Field With Missing Required Arguments

**Error Code:**

`FIELD_WITH_MISSING_REQUIRED_ARGUMENT`

**Severity:**

ERROR

**Formal Specification:**

- Let {typeNames} be the set of all object and interface types name from all
source schemas that are not declared as `@internal`
- For each {typeName} in {typeNames}:
- Let {typeDefinitions} be the list of all type definitions from different
source schemas with the name {typeName}.
- Let {fieldNames} be the set of all field names from all {typeDefinitions}
that are not declared as `@internal`.
- For each {fieldName} in {fieldNames}:
- Let {fieldDefinitions} be the list of all field definitions from
{typeDefinitions} with the name {fieldName}.
- Let {requiredArgumentNames} be the set of all argument names from
{fieldDefinitions} that have a non-nullable type in at least one
definition that does not specify `@require`
- For each {fieldDefinition} in {fieldDefinitions}:
- For each {requiredArgumentName} in {requiredArgumentNames}:
- {fieldDefinition} must have an argument with the name
{requiredArgumentName} that does not specify `@require`

**Explanatory Text:**

When merging a field definition across multiple schemas, any argument that is
non-null (i.e., “required”) in one schema must appear in all schemas that define
that field. In other words, arguments are effectively merged by intersection: if
an argument is considered required in any schema, then that same argument must
exist in every schema that contributes to the composite definition. If a
required argument is missing in one schema, there is no consistent way to define
that field across schemas.

If an argument is marked with `@require`, it is treated as non-required.
Consequently, this argument must either be nullable in all other schemas or must
also be marked with `@require` in all other schemas.

**Examples**

All schemas agree on having a required argument `author` for the `books` field:

```graphql example
# Schema A
type Query {
books(author: String!): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema B
type Query {
books(author: String!): [Book] @shareable
}
```

In the following example, the `author` argument on the `books` field in Schema A
specifies a dependency on the `author` field in Schema C. The `author` argument
on the `books` field in Schema B is optional. As a result, the composition
succeeds; however, the `author` argument will not be included in the composite
schema.

```graphql example
# Schema A
type Collection {
books(author: String! @require(field: "author")): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema B
type Collection {
books(author: String): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema C
type Collection {
author: String!
}
```

In the following counter-example, the `author` argument is required in one
schema but not in the other. This will result in a
`FIELD_WITH_MISSING_REQUIRED_ARGUMENT` error.

```graphql counter-example
# Schema A
type Query {
books(author: String!): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema B
type Query {
books: [Book] @shareable
}
```

In the following counter-example, the `author` argument on the `books` field in
Schema A specifies a dependency on the `author` field in Schema C. The `author`
argument on the `books` field in Schema B is **not** optional. This will result
in a `FIELD_WITH_MISSING_REQUIRED_ARGUMENT` error.

```graphql counter-example
# Schema A
type Collection {
books(author: String! @require(field: "author")): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema B
type Collection {
books(author: String!): [Book] @shareable
}

# Schema C
type Collection {
author: String!
}
```
