SSR support: missing cache state transfer/restore?

[pimlie]

Hey, thanks for this awesome graphql client!

Was wondering whether it is supported to send the cache state after SSR to the client and restore the cache on hydration? The issue at the moment is that this happens:

• Request SSR page A, fetch data from API
• Navigate (client side) to page B
• Hit back button to return to page A, data is again fetched because cache is still empty as previously the query was run on the server side.

Thank you for the suggestion, I think this is a good enhancement to have but I'm not sure how to approach it at the moment.

Feel free to PR it if you have any ideas

I would also need to investigate the best approach but probably would look at the approach that our friends over at vue-apollo have taken:

• Docs: https://apollo.vuejs.org/api/ssr.html
• Code: https://github.com/vuejs/vue-apollo/tree/dev/packages/vue-apollo/ssr
• VueApollo SSR used in Nuxt.js module: https://github.com/nuxt-community/apollo-module/blob/master/lib/templates/plugin.js#L118-L133

Currently dont have much time to work on a PR unfortunately, will let you know when that changes.
