[ts] Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'DocumentNode | DocumentNode[]'.

I'm guessing this is due to changes in apollo-server-express since you published? If I google, I can find several workarounds, but I am interested in how you would solve this. Thanks!

Hi @aadrew - have you found a workaround for this yet? I haven't set up the server with TypeScript before so haven't encountered this error.

Maybe try importing gql from apollo-server-express and wrap the import with gql?

const { ApolloServer, gql } from 'apollo-server-express'
var typeDefs = gql(readFileSync('./typeDefs.graphql', 'UTF-8'))

Thank you, @eveporcello. The workaround I found was exactly your solution. Sorry I didn't update this issue earlier. Thank you for your response. It's good to know we came to the same solution.
