Error: Unable to merge GraphQL directive "abstractEntity"

[dwalker93]

Codegen worked fine with "@graphql-codegen/add": "^3.1.0", "@graphql-codegen/cli": "1.21.7", "@graphql-codegen/typescript": "1.23.0", "@graphql-codegen/typescript-resolvers": "1.20.0", "@graphql-codegen/typescript-mongodb": "^1.19.5", and then accidently updated all packages to latest. Then got TypeError:

yarn gen

        →       directive @abstractEntity(additionalFields: [AdditionalEntityFields], discriminatorField: String!) on INTERFACE

Something went wrong

I tried roll back the updated packages. But now error is not getting disappeared.

ok retried with rollbacking to different versions and fixed the error with older versions. So the bug in graphql-codegen/cli and also not working with graphql 16.

Can see the bug again if updated to graphql-codegen/cli to version 2.0.0.
