Migrating from apollo-link-state

Open mitjade opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

What's the problem this PR addresses? I am trying to migrate from apollo-link-state, to fix default state not being set on ssr.

When this kit migrated to apollo-client 3.0 (#1134), default state was not set on ssr. Workaround for this was to set it in code and pass it to components manualy -> https://github.com/sysgears/apollo-universal-starter-kit/pull/1134/files#diff-1c960d0cc9e1d13dca0e9950e18e5f4eR25.

Apollo docs, state that apollo-link-state is no longer needed and can be removed like this: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/v2.5/essentials/local-state/#migrating-from-apollo-link-state

It also states that defaults are no longer supported and cache.writeData should be used to set it.

How did you fix it? I followed the migration guide and removed withClientState and called cache.writeData , to set default data, but it does not seem to work. Now even when code gets regenerated on client side, local state is not working.

I console.log props.filter on /users route, to test this out.

@larixer Could you please take a look what I am doing wrong and if you have any suggestions how to fix this?

I think the problem is described here: https://github.com/apollographql/react-apollo/issues/3338.

I guess I need to rewrite my code to handle the initial loading: true state in ssr queries.
