Hey @Alvyre 👋

Since we still haven’t implemented this, you could use the alternative approach we mentioned above. Instead of supplying resolvers and typeDefs to server directly you can provide a schema that you build upfront. Something like this;

const schema = makeExecutableSchema({ typeDefs, resolvers })

const schemaWithMiddleware = applyMiddleware(
  schema,
  metricsMiddleware,
  authMiddleware,
  beepMiddleware,
)

const server = new ApolloServer({
  mocks: false,
  schema: schemaWithMiddleware,,
});

You can find even more information about it in the link below. I hope this helps you solve the problem; I will try to make a PR by the end of the week 🤞

@notrab yeah, you can use it with makeExecutableSchema and then applyMiddleware like this;

const schema = makeExecutableSchema({ typeDefs, resolvers })

const schemaWithMiddleware = applyMiddleware(
  schema,
  metricsMiddleware,
  authMiddleware,
  beepMiddleware,
)

I believe it would be a lot more convenient though to have general support for it. I will try to make a PR in the coming days!
