Invariant Violation: Could not find "client" in the context or passed in as an option. Wrap the root component in an <ApolloProvider>, or pass an ApolloClient instance in via options.

Intended outcome:

I was hoping to connect with the Hasura server using Apollo Actual outcome:

Got the error response: Invariant Violation: Could not find "client" in the context or passed in as an option. Wrap the root component in an <ApolloProvider>, or pass an ApolloClient instance in via options.

How to reproduce the issue:

I have a very simple setup.

1. Followed the react native setup for Typescript from : https://reactnative.dev/docs/typescript
2. Modified App.tsx to:

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, ScrollView, Text, FlatList } from 'react-native';
import { ApolloProvider, ApolloClient, useQuery } from '@apollo/client';


import makeApolloClient from './apollo';
import gql from 'graphql-tag';
// import { useQuery } from '@apollo/react-hooks';

export const FETCH_TODOS = gql`
query {
  todos (
    order_by: {
      created_at: desc
    },
    where: { is_public: { _eq: false} }
  ) {
    id
    title
    is_completed
    created_at
    is_public
    user {
      name
    }
  }
}
`;

const App: () => React.ReactNode = () => {
  let [client, setClient] = React.useState({} as ApolloClient<any>);

  client = makeApolloClient("eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIsImtpZCI6Ik9FWTJSVGM1UlVOR05qSXhSRUV5TURJNFFUWXdNekZETWtReU1EQXdSVUV4UVVRM05EazFNQSJ9");
  setClient(client);

  const { data, error, loading } = useQuery(
    FETCH_TODOS,
  );

  return (
    <ApolloProvider client={client}>
      <ScrollView
        contentInsetAdjustmentBehavior="automatic"
        style={styles.scrollView}>
        <FlatList
          data={data.todos}
          renderItem={({ item }) => <Text>{item}</Text>}
          keyExtractor={(item) => item.id.toString()}
        />
      </ScrollView>
    </ApolloProvider>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  scrollView: {
    backgroundColor: "white",
  }
});

export default App;

1. Apollo function import from apollo.ts:

import {
    ApolloClient,
    InMemoryCache,
    NormalizedCacheObject,
    createHttpLink
} from '@apollo/client'

export function makeApolloClient({ token }: any): ApolloClient<NormalizedCacheObject> {
    // create an apollo link instance, a network interface for apollo client
    const link = createHttpLink({
        uri: `https://hasura.io/learn/graphql`,
        headers: {
            Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`
        }
    });
    // create an inmemory cache instance for caching graphql data
    const cache = new InMemoryCache()
    // instantiate apollo client with apollo link instance and cache instance
    const client = new ApolloClient({
        link: link as any,
        cache
    });
    return client;
}

export default makeApolloClient;

1. ran npx react-native run-android.

I actually downgraded @apollo/client from 3.2.4 to test this. Both of the versions did not work.

@karansinghgit Ahh, I think the problem is that you’re calling useQuery before you’ve created your <ApolloProvider client={client}/> component, so useQuery can’t find any ApolloProvider above it in the component tree, and thus can’t find the client. I think you might want to move the client creation and ApolloProvider wrapping code out of your App component, so the App component can safely call useQuery. If that’s not an option, you can move the useQuery code down into a nested component that’s rendered inside the <ApolloProvider/> component.

After long hours i figured out this nonesense https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/7112#issuecomment-702884623 works. This project starting to become ridiculous. @apollo/client@^3.4.0-beta.20
