apollographql
Incompatibility with graphql 16.9.0
Description
@oneOf is not recognized as a known directive by rover
Steps to reproduce
try to compose a supergraph with a @oneOf directive in use without declaring the directive
Expected result
@oneOf should be known as an internal directive of graphql
Actual result
error[E029]: Encountered X build errors while trying to build a supergraph
Caused by:
UNKNOWN: [...] Unknown directive "@oneOf"
Environment
Run rover info and paste the results here
version: 0.25.0 OS: Windows 10 Shell: PowerShell
Normally, I'd say that this should be implemented using custom directives (also see managing custom directives. Current the @oneOF is an RFC, and not part of the official spec for graphql built-in directives. However, since it is in rfc, and many graphql tools have already implemented it, then it may be a good idea to open this as an issue in the https://github.com/apollographql/federation-rs project, which is where the plugin rover uses to compose schema comes from.

I guess all node based packages lean on graphql-js as source of truth maybe there has been no rust update of that. So having different source of truths may cause such problems. So tools like graphql codegen will filter out that directive since it is now treated as build in. And since rover does not support globs like **/*.graphql to stich together modularized graphql files this is a huge thing.
Wait I was saying is, for JS ppl it is a build in directive while for RS ppl it might not be
I'm not disputing any of that. All I'm saying is that rover isn't involved at all in the parsing or composition of the graphql, and that the issue will be more likely to be resolved if you open it in the project where this feature needs to be implemented.
(and also that you can extend it in schema until it is natively supported, since your server and client side libraries already support it.)
Hi, thanks for raising this, we're working on supporting this in both the supergraph plugin and the router, you can follow this issue here: https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-rs/issues/882. Once that has merged and new versions of supergraph and router are available we'll update rover to support this.
