Recursive GraphQL Queries

I’m using dgraph to store tree data structure. Here is my graphql schema.

type Node {
    title: String!
    parent: PalaceNode
    children: [PalaceNode] @hasInverse(field: parent)
}

I want to fetch all ancestors for a node.

query getNodeAncestors($id: ID!) {
    getNode(id: $id) {
        parent {
            id
            title
        }
    }
}

I dont know at what level this node will be so i can not add many nested parent blocks and even if a knew that would be ugly. So is there a way to fetch all ancestors of a node? Is there any recursive functionality in dgraph’s graphql?
