updateQueries will not update the data node

[luckyyang]

updateQueries will not update the data node after successfully get data from graphQl
apollo-client version: 2.5.20
react-apollo version: 0.7.2

screenshots to illustrate the issue:

before create new data:

submit the form and get result from graphQL:

data list not update automatically:

after refresh the page got data updated:

attach my code:

// graphqlModule/updateQueries/providerList.js

export const providerList = {
  userList: (prev, { mutationResult }) => {
    const result = mutationResult.data.registerWithIdentification

    return update(prev, {
      userList: {
        data: {
          $unshift: [result]
        }
      }
    })
  },
}

======

// container.js

import { providerList as updateQueries } from 'graphqlModule/updateQueries/providerList'

  async submit() {
        const res = await mutate({ variables, updateQueries })
  }

@luckyyang Are you sure that your udpateQuery function even runs? If it runs, it most likely doesn't update because you have an error in it. I recently noticed that errors in reducers get swallowed, so it may be the same here. Make sure to check the entire update function is running, for example by putting a print statement right before the return statement.

@helfer You mean If it NOT runs ? I don't see any errors in my code and dev tools.

for example by putting a print statement right before the return statement

I can see the mutate result has been returned, I put a breakpoint before return statement and got no error and get the update data after refresh the page.

Do you have any idea about that?

I can get error when use wrong param for update:

   return update(prev, {
      userList: {
        data: {
          $push: result
        }
      }
    })

No error for below code(however not get data updated):

   return update(prev, {
      userList: {
        data: {
          $push:[result]
        }
      }
    })

works now after I deleted all the data in database, I think It's due to the bad format of my history data. We have changed data schema for several times. close this issue
