I have a self-referencing model, and I was able to get it to work with the following. However, this leads to 2 different cached objects in Apollo. Ex, ChildCategory:[id] and Category:[Id]. I would like to have a single source of truth so it makes optimistic updates more manageable.

object :child_category do
  field :id, :id
  field :name, :string
  field :category_id, :id
end

object :category do
  field :id, :id
  field :name, :string
  field :categories, list_of(:child_category), resolve: dataloader(DataloaderQueries, :categories)
end

I tried this, but it leads to an error saying it can’t query the categoryId on category. I also don’t want there to be infinite recursion. I want the second level of categories to exclude the key categories.

object :category do
  field :id, :id
  field :name, :string
  field :categories, list_of(:category), resolve: dataloader(DataloaderQueries, :categories)
end
