GraphQL Voyager not compliant with latest specs, breaks HotChocolate

voyager.min.js:82 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Name "__AppliedDirective" must not begin with "__", which is reserved by GraphQL introspection.

This was first brought to the attention of the HotChocolate team in ChilliCream/graphql-platform#5154, but it seems that the __DirectiveArgument is indeed part of the official spec as an official type, but as a DRAFT feature. Could we please have this fixed? Thanks.

@SpiritBob which version of Voyager are you using? And how are you using it?

@LunaticMuch I'm using GraphQL.Server.Ui.Voyager which is maintained by GraphQL-DotNet. How can I check the version from the UI? The worker file is delivered via a cdn, so I'll toss a link to that if it helps you in any way.

Cool. It's not a worker problem per se.
My best guess is that while we made an update to the graphql core library, this has not been pushed yet on the CDN/NPMJS so whoever is using voyager still have a version which depends on a wrong graphql library.

Would be able to share the schema/introspection you're using to reproduce the issue?

For example:

schema {
  query: QueryType
  mutation: MutationType
}

"""
The `@defer` directive may be provided for fragment spreads and inline fragments to inform the executor to delay the execution of the current fragment to indicate deprioritization of the current fragment.

Ok, I see it.
You named a directive with a double __ at the beginning. The error is correct, and it's not voyager, it's the graphql library telling you that it's a reserved prefix. You can check the official specs.

The double underscore is returned by the introspection, but this is an SDL and it can't be there.

@SpiritBob this is a issue of GraphQL Voyager as they do apparently not support these types. The __DirectiveArgument is a offical introspection type, but it's a DRAFT feature on the spec.
I woudl suggest to raise this issue on the graphql voyager repository, as HC is spec compliant in this case

Could you please toss a link to where they specify that it's an official introspection type? Latest working draft doesn't specify it, unless my CTR +F is playing tricks on me. https://spec.graphql.org/draft/

@SpiritBob Its this feature graphql/graphql-spec#300. It's a stage 0 spec draft so hasnt made it into the offical draft specification. The introspection types are returned by the normal introspection aswell, but are not part of the SDL.

@SpiritBob correct and because it's draft, it's not usable. graphql-js library does not support it. I doubt you can find another supporting it.

You should refrain from using it. If you decide to use it, you need to accept the risk.
