graphql-nextjs: Can't write schema.graphql to file system (Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '/schema.graphql')

Hey all,

Trying to fool around with the graphql-nextjs example to get myself acquainted - but I am seeing problems in the console. In the console I am seeing

[Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '/schema.graphql'] {
  errno: -13,
  code: 'EACCES',
  syscall: 'open',
  path: '/schema.graphql'
}

This is a fresh install as of today. Using node 13.7.0 if this helps.

I changed __dirname to process.cwd() and it worked for me.

  types: [Query, Mutation, User],
  outputs: {
    typegen: process.cwd() + '/pages/api/nexus-typegen.ts',
    schema: process.cwd() + '/pages/api/schema.graphql',
  },
});
