Has anyone found a way to use both GraphQL Shield and dataloaders at the same time while using Apollo Server and NestJS?
I recently found that because I have asynchronous calls being made in some of my shield rules, it's causing my dataloader batch functions to be called multiple times, when they should only be called once, which leaves me with the N+1 problem across my entire app.
I believe this is due to how dataloader requires that all of the batch function calls occur during the same event loop "tick", and the async calls in my shield rules are preventing this.
Here's where I asked the question on reddit
