Changes to upgrade to Apollo Server v4 | remove deprecated dependencies

[stpru24]

Hi @andrejpk ,

Noticed that with Apollo Server v4, apollo-datasource package has been deprecated and will hit EOL on 22 October 2024.
Reference - https://www.npmjs.com/package/apollo-datasource

Could you please consider making the required changes to remove the apollo-datasource dependency?

Thanks

Hi @stpru24 , I noticed that in my last push of dependency updates. I'd like to make that change. I only spent about 5 min looking into it so far. Is that's a backward -compatible change or would that require a major version change in this library?

Also happy to accept a PR or collaborate if to have some time to try this. It would speed this up.

Hi @andrejpk , looks like there are some major changes, below dependencies are deprecated with Apollo Server V4 -
"apollo-datasource": "^3.3.2"
"apollo-server-caching": "^3.3.0"
"apollo-server-errors": "^3.3.1"

The KeyValueCache interface has been moved and is now in the @apollo/utils.keyvaluecache package.
The InMemoryLRUCache class has also moved to the @apollo/utils.keyvaluecache package.
