Implementing with-graphql-react example alongside createGlobalstyle from styled-components causes conflicts

Hello,

Just today I found this behavior and would like to start a discussion in order to get to the bottom of it, because really, I’m not sure how to fix it.

This is the error:

(node:22363) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'children' of undefined

It seems like a conflict between preload and createGlobalStyles (from styled-components). This is the implementation of global styles, it goes according to their docs:

import { normalize } from 'styled-normalize'
import { createGlobalStyle } from 'styled-components'

import { scales } from './variables'

export const WGlobalStyles = createGlobalStyle`
  ${normalize}
  html {
  font-size: ${scales.baseFont}px;
  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  box-sizing: border-box;

  }
  *, *:before, *:after {
    -webkit-box-sizing: inherit;
    -moz-box-sizing: inherit;
    box-sizing: inherit;
  }
`

It’s simply the implementation of base font sizes and resets from styled-normalize and just a bit of my own.

This is the _app.js implementation on the side of Next.js. Comes directly from the example with-graphql-react and trying to implement the global styles :

import 'cross-fetch/polyfill'
import {Provider} from 'graphql-react'
import {withGraphQL} from 'next-graphql-react'
import App, { Container } from 'next/app'

import { WGlobalStyles } from '@wagglio/components'

class WagglioMainApp extends App {
    render() {
    const { Component, pageProps, graphql } = this.props
    return (
      <Container>
        <Provider value={graphql}>
          <WGlobalStyles />
          <Component {...pageProps} />
        </Provider>
      </Container>
    )
  }
}

export default withGraphQL(WagglioMainApp)

Everything works whenever I comment out <WGlobalStyles />. Not sure how to pin point the unhandled promise in this case.

If there’s any other info I can provide in order to help solve this, please let me know.

Cheers
