[morrys]

• [x] adapt apollo-cache to the new apollo-client 3.0 cache management (80% done)
• [x] adapt apollo-offline with the new apollo-client 3.0 mutation management (80%)
• [x] adapt the todo example project

Thank you for the awesome package! Do you have any ETA on when the support for @apollo/client >=3.0.0 arrives?

[morrys]

Hi @terreb, at the moment I can't call you an ETA this for two reasons:

• my two PRs made in apollo are still open and it is not clear if and when they will be integrated
• with apollo 3.0, at the moment, they do not support persistence. see what's next?

For these reasons, I think it is early to make an apollo-cache and apollo-offline integration that guarantees use in production without risking significant breaking changes.

[terreb]

Hi @morrys, thank you for your reply. Makes sense indeed!

What’s the latest update on AC3? Their docs point to https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-cache-persist for cache persistence now.

[morrys]

It now appears that AC3 is mature enough and used to evaluate the release of its support 👍

At the moment I can't say when I will be able to release it but I will keep you updated so that you can help me test it 💯

[robnewton]

Yeah that would be great, please do keep us updated. We are starting a new project now so will use v2 for the moment and would be happy to help test as you progress on v3.

This is a great set of packages but the support for them are lacking, are there alternative repos that support persisted and cached graphQL requests, which work with apollo3-cache-persist (or replace it)?

[morrys]

@calliday, the support for apollo 3 has not yet been carried out because even in the future version 3.4.0, which is now at the 19th release candidate, the store is very impacted.

Also, the PR https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/pull/5601 that allows for easy integration I suppose will never be accepted.

I'm sorry for this but for now I don't feel like releasing the support with these conditions and not guaranteeing a correct functioning of the library in the medium / long term.
