While updating from alpha 6 to alpha 7 of the new normalized cache (with Apollo 4.3.3), following the release notes guidance, I'm seeing the compiler error Apollo: unknown foreign schema 'cache/v0.3' for the following at the top of my updated graphqls file:

extend schema
@link(url: "<https://specs.apollo.dev/kotlin_labs/v0.5>", import: ["BuiltIn", "@mapTo"])
@link(url: "<https://specs.apollo.dev/cache/v0.3>", import: ["@connection", "@typePolicy"])

Does this require an Apollo 5.0 alpha, or is there something else going on here?

Did you add the cache compiler plugin?

Ahh, my bad, I did have it already but the version was mismatched – https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin-normalized-cache/issues/216 strikes again, I know this is fixed in v5 though 😅

Thanks again Martin!

[mbonnin]

Sure thing!

As a quick workaround, I'm curious why this doesn't work:

plugin("com.apollographql.cache:normalized-cache-apollo-compiler-plugin:${libs.versions.apolloCache}")

[mbonnin]

It's technically exactly the same as

plugin("com.apollographql.cache:normalized-cache-apollo-compiler-plugin:1.0.0-alpha.5") { .. }

[mbonnin]

You might just be missing a call to `.get()`:

[mbonnin]

plugin("com.apollographql.cache:normalized-cache-apollo-compiler-plugin:${libs.versions.apolloCache.get()}")

[mbonnin]

(Because libs.version.apolloCache is an instance of some class that doesn't have a toString() )

Cheers, plugin("com.apollographql.cache:normalized-cache-apollo-compiler-plugin:${libs.versions.apolloCache.get()}") does indeed work!
