I’m getting this very unspecific error and I’m not sure how to troubleshoot it. I’ve seen a few other people have had it and I’ve tried their solutions to no avail. /Users/me/Development3/my-api/node_modules/graphql/language/lexer.js:316 throw (0, _error.syntaxError)(source, pos, unexpectedCharacterMessage(code)); ^ GraphQLError: Syntax Error: Cannot parse the unexpected character “.”. Specifically, I was missing:

- generator: graphql-schema
    output: ../src/generated/graphql-schema/

Now, I have /generated/schema.graphl and /generated/graphql-schema/prisma.graphql. I added this to my data model.graphql:

# import User from '.,/../../database/datamodel.graphql'

I still get this error. Any further suggestions on what I can do to track down this issue?

In import, I can see a ., Is this a typo or copied from your actual file ?

Hi, @divyendu. Thanks for the response. You are correct, that “,” was a typo. But even corrected I get this error. I’ll have to see if I can set up a minimal repo after work.

I think that apollo-server does not have native

graphql-import

integration like

graphql-yoga

and you need to use this manually to make the import syntax work: https://github.com/prisma/graphql-import

@divyendu Ah! OK, thanks. I wasn’t aware of that, being new to the GraphQL world and tools. Thanks so much. I’ll give the import a shot.

Cheers, happy to help 🙂
