Hey guys, is it possible to convert @InputType() fields? Say I have an InputType ts @InputType() class Foo { @Field() value: string }, is it possible to provide a value as a number, and have it converted to a string?

Looking at the docs I suppose I could write a middleware that converts numbers to strings, but is there a more built-in method?
Although trying that out doesn't seem to work, I guess the middleware is run after type validation?

@Type(() => String) should do it. Though you'll probably have to tell GQL that it's a number like @Field({ type: Number })

`@Type(() => String)` should do it. Though you'll probably have to tell GQL that...
hmm @Field({ type: Number }) doesn't seem to be an accepted value

this is all it should take? ```ts
@Field(() => Float)
@Type(() => String)
someFloat: string
I believe so. With transform: true set in the ValidationPipe
