Flutter GraphQl client cache

I am using Flutter graphql_client which implemented pretty much as in this example

My client creation looks like this:

abstract class AbstractAdapter {
  Link get httpLink;

 GraphQLClient client;

 AbstractAdapter() {
   client = GraphQLClient(cache: InMemoryCache(), link: httpLink);
 }

 Future<QueryResult> query(QueryOptions options) {
   return client.query(options);
 }
}

It works pretty well but the problem is with the caching If I send the same mutation twice, it returns the cached result instead of sending it again!

Appreciates any help.

You can either use FetchPolicy.networkOnly or updateCache after mutation is completed.

you must use FetchPolicy.networkOnly in QueryOptions and MutationOptions , fetchPolicy property

      String query, Map<String, dynamic> variables) async {
    QueryOptions options = QueryOptions(
        documentNode: gql(query),
        variables: variables,
        fetchPolicy: FetchPolicy.networkOnly);

    final result = await _client.query(options);

    return result;
  }

Future<QueryResult> performMutation(
      String query, Map<String, dynamic> variables) async {
    MutationOptions options = MutationOptions(
        documentNode: gql(query),
        variables: variables,
        fetchPolicy: FetchPolicy.networkOnly);

    final result = await _client.mutate(options);
    return result;
  }

I've found the problem, I was trying to send mutation on a query api, this will return the last cached response which is not good for mutation.

I've added mutation query with MutationOptions to my GraphQL adapter like this:

abstract class AbstractAdapter {
Link get httpLink;

GraphQLClient client;

AbstractAdapter() {
  client = GraphQLClient(cache: InMemoryCache(), link: httpLink);
}

Future<QueryResult> query(QueryOptions options) {
  return client.query(options);
 }

Future<QueryResult> mutate(MutationOptions options) {
  return client.mutate(options);
 }
}
