Can i create custom query for @find directive with nuwave/lighthouse 6.6?

In laravel 9.48 / nuwave/lighthouse 6.6 app I need getting single row with @find directive to add some additive fields
which I do not have in database ,but calculate “on fly” published_label based on published and created_at_formatted and created_at_formatted
based on created_at :

{
  article(id:1)  {
     id
     title
     text
     text_shortly
     creator {
        id
        username
        email
        status
     }
      published
      published_label
      created_at_formatted 
      created_at
  }
}

I tried to create custom query, like I do with custom query for @paginate( directiver, which has possibility to use custom resolver and withc command

php artisan lighthouse:query Article

new file app/GraphQL/Queries/Article.php was created.

and modified graphql file :

extend type Query {
    articles(
        filterByPublished: Boolean @where(key: "filterByPublished")
        filterByTitle: String @where(key: "filterByTitle")
        sortedBy: String @where(key: "sortedBy")
        page: Int @where(key: "page")
        count: Int @where(key: "count")
    ): [Article!]! @paginate(defaultCount: 10, resolver: "App\\GraphQL\\Queries\\Builders\\CustomArticles@index")

#    article(id: ID! @eq): Article @find
    article(id: ID! @eq): Article @find(resolver: "App\\GraphQL\\Queries\\Article")
}

Command did not raise any errors

php artisan lighthouse:validate-schema

and my request returned error :

"Cannot return null for non-nullable field \"Article.published_label\"

looks like my custom query was not called.

Reading docs at https://lighthouse-php.com/6/api-reference/directives.html#find
I did not fond any resolver mentioned here...
How can I make it ?

No need to create a custom @find directive here.

I can see two ways to achieve what you want:

1. Create a the "published_label" attribute on your Article model, the quick and dirty way :

public function publishedLabel(): Attribute
{
  return Attribute::get(fn () => "Published since " . $this->published_at->format(...));
}

2. Create a dedicated resolver, the clean way IMHO :

namespace App\GraphQL\Resolvers\Types\Article;
use App\Models\Article;

class PublishedLabel {
  public function __invoke(Article $parent): string {
    return "Published since " . $parent->published_at->format(...);
  }
}

// then in your graphql definition
type Article {
  ...
  published: Datetime!
  published_label: String! @field(resolver: "App\\GraphQL\\Resolvers\\Types\\Article\\PublishedLabel")
}

Read more about this here : https://lighthouse-php.com/master/api-reference/directives.html#field

Bonus

With this second way, you can even imagine some arguments, such as "locale", "format" (short/long), ... for endless possibilities

type Article {
  ...
  published: Datetime!
  published_label(locale: String = "en"): String! @field(resolver: "App\\GraphQL\\Resolvers\\Types\\Article\\PublishedLabel")
}

namespace App\GraphQL\Resolvers\Types\Article;
use App\Models\Article;

class PublishedLabel {
  public function __invoke(Article $parent, $args): string {
    $locale = $args['locale'];
    $publishedAt = $parent->published_at;

    return ....;
  }
}
