"Cannot find package '@graphql-mesh/transport-rest'" when running gateway package container

[blakel6819]

Description

Getting the following error running any of the 1.5.x gateway package containers when trying to load transport "rest":

• Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package '@graphql-mesh/transport-rest' imported from /node_modules/.chunk/unifiedGraphManager-DAEQW3BS.mjs

Can the @graphql-mesh/transport-rest package be included in gateway package container?
Or is there an alternative way to get this working?

Additional Context

I am defining a subgraph from an OpenAPI schema using @omnigraph/openapi package and following the GraphQL-Mesh docs.

The package is installed and is available in the node_modules directory, but it is not part of the container image.

Everything works as expected when running locally, but fails when running in Docker (locally and deployed).

If I try to import the package directly from the node_modules directory, I then encounter the following duplicate graphql modules error:

• Duplicate "graphql" modules cannot be used at the same time since different versions may have different capabilities and behavior. The data from one version used in the function from another could produce confusing and spurious results.
• https://github.com/ardatan/graphql-js/blob/master/src/jsutils/instanceOf.js#L27
• I have tried using resolutions in the pnpm package.json file as well

Environment

• @graphql-hive/gateway: ^1.5.x
• @graphql-mesh/compose-cli: ^1.2.x
• @omnigraph/openapi: ^0.108.x

Not all transports are included in the docker image. You have to install it yourself. Please check the "Extend Docker Image" documentation on the how-to.

Your Dockerfile should roughly be:

FROM ghcr.io/graphql-hive/gateway
 
RUN npm i @graphql-mesh/transport-rest

I see but we still don't know about your setup, configuration and more. We'd love to reproduce it exactly the same way you did. So in order to help you better, could you please provide a reproduction within a repo like I shared above?

I've created a repo that shows the problem here @ardatan and included the steps to reproduce in the readme. Hope this is helpful.

Thank you @simonleebaker ! In this way, we can eliminate any extra trial and error steps!

@ardatan I think I've found what is causing the issue - without the 'transports' set in the gateway configuration, it appears that the gateway cannot find the package, regardless of it being installed via npm or not.

When I try it with the transports populated as above, it works as expected :-)

Glad you got it working! That's certainly a way of doing it. But what you've been experiencing is definitely a bug and we're on fixing it.

This has been fixed in #865 and released in v1.13.0 of the Hive Gateway Docker image, i.e. starting from ghcr.io/graphql-hive/gateway:1.13.0.
