on Node.js NPM

Major Changes

• #12463 3868df8 Thanks @jerelmiller! - ObservableQuery.setOptions has been removed as it was an alias of reobserve. Prefer using reobserve directly instead.

  const observable = client.watchQuery(options);
  
  // Use reobserve to set new options and reevaluate the query
  - observable.setOptions(newOptions);
  + observable.reobserve(newOptions);

  As a result of this change, reobserve has been marked for public use and is no longer considered an internal API. The newNetworkStatus argument has been removed to facilitate this change.

• #12470 d32902f Thanks @phryneas! - ssrMode, ssrForceFetchDelay and disableNetworkFetches have been reworked:

  Previously, a ObservableQuery created by client.query or client.watchQuery
  while one of those were active would permanently be changed from a fetchPolicy
  of "network-only" or "cache-and-network" to "cache-first", and stay that way
  even long after disableNetworkFetches would have been deactivated.

  Now, the ObservableQuery will keep their original fetchPolicy, but queries
  made during disableNetworkFetches will just apply the fetchPolicy replacement
  at request time, just for that one request.

  ApolloClient.disableNetworkFetches has been renamed to ApolloClient.prioritizeCacheValues to better reflect this behaviour.

• #12465 a132163 Thanks @jerelmiller! - Flatten out React hook types. As a result, the base types have been removed. Prefer using the hook types instead. Removed types include:

  • BaseMutationOptions
  • BaseQueryOptions
  • BaseSubscriptionOptions
  • ObservableQueryFields
  • MutationSharedOptions
  • QueryFunctionOptions

• #12463 3868df8 Thanks @jerelmiller! - useQuery no longer returns reobserve as part of its result. It was possible to use reobserve to set new options on the underlying ObservableQuery instance which differed from the options passed to the hook. This could result in unexpected results. Instead prefer to rerender the hook with new options.

Patch Changes

• #12465 a132163 Thanks @jerelmiller! - Rename all React hook result types and options. These types have all moved under a namespace that matches the hook name. For example, useQuery exports useQuery.Options and useQuery.Result types. As such, the old hook types have been deprecated and will be removed in v5.
