SSR: Missing cache result fields for fields with @client directives

[nathanschwarz]

Hello there,

since @apollo/client@3.0.0-beta.44 all the @client directives on fields throw a MissingFieldError when trying to render on the server (using @apollo/react-ssr@4.0.0-beta.1)

When downgrading to @apollo/client@3.0.0-beta.41 it works as usual.

Does @apollo/client@3.0.0-beta.44 introduced a breaking change on the way it handles @client directives ?

After some digging, I found the source: devs removed @client directive without saying it in migration guide.

See PR #5982 for detail.

We did remove the option to pass @client directives into the link chain, which is documented in the link section of the Migration Guide. It isn't clear though if that is the issue being originally reported here? @nathanschwarz if this isn't your problem, could you provide more details, such as a small runnable reproduction? Closing for now, but happy to re-open if this issue isn't resolved.

It seems that the bug was removed with @apollo/client@3.0.0-beta.50.

Anyway, I wasn't using the old apollo-link-state API, but the one in the core (just to clarify, I can guess that apollo-link-state is still implemented in the core). It seems that @client directives were sent to server anyway even with local resolvers setup.

Thanks anyway !
