Description

I can see that it is possible to create a graphql type or mutation based on an existing mongoose schema using the --schema command, it would be great if creating a model without an existing mongoose schema could generate one.

For example the command:

create-graphql generate -tm User

Generates:

./src/model/User.js

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the existing codebase to understand how the generator creates files from templates. Look at the handler for the 'generate' command, specifically how it processes the schema flag. Add logic to generate a Mongoose model file when no schema is provided.
