I'm learning how the GraphQL query generation works. If one of the 
schema.AttributeFilter
s is removed, will the 
Cloud Pricing API Server
respond successfully? E.g.:
Copy code
// computeCostComponent returns a cost component for server compute requirements.

yep, it should work, try it 🙂 that’ll just cause more data to be returned by the API as the filters narrow-down the results
a
Awesome to know!
I'm building a custom interface to the 
Cloud Pricing API Server
since I am not using Terraform, so I'm dissecting the 
infracost
internals
Any other areas of interest that I should look at?
w
you’re on the right track, the resource files that Vadim mentioned have the filters you need. I can’t remember if I asked already but what’s the interface taking as input? a yaml of the filters?
a
TOML
Nice, clean key/value format
So I'm generating a custom 
GraphQL
query based on TOML input
w
and users write that TOML?
a
yes, exactly
m
@able-pencil-95187 interesting, is this a completely custom thing for your company? I’ve not seen any IACs implemented in TOML before
a
@mysterious-teacher-68276 good morning! No, this is not an IAC, but an internal project I'm working on.
m
cool, what’s the project?
a
It is an internal project to retrieve cloud vendor cost estimates, but we don't use Terraform. I was impressed that Infracost open sourced the 
Cloud Pricing API Server
, because that could easily be a proprietary offering. Kudos! Since we don't use Terraform, a custom interface using TOML is being explored.
