Consumindo API GraphQL usando React Native e Apollo Client

No tutorial de hoje, iremos consumir uma API GraphQL usando React Native e Apollo Client.

A API GraphQL será a seguinte: https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql

Vamos à prática!

Crie um projeto usando npx react-native init NomeProjeto e após isso adicione as dependências abaixo

yarn add graphql @apollo/client@3.2.5

Observação: @apollo/client@3.2.5 essa versão específica pois há um bug nas versões mais novas que impede o pleno funcionamento da mesma no RN.

Estrutura do projeto

Editar o arquivo metro.config.js como no exemplo abaixo

/**
 * Metro configuration for React Native
 * https://github.com/facebook/react-native
 *
 * @format
 */
const { getDefaultConfig } = require("metro-config");
const { resolver: defaultResolver } = getDefaultConfig.getDefaultValues();

module.exports = {
  resolver: {
    ...defaultResolver,
    sourceExts: [...defaultResolver.sourceExts, "cjs"],
  },
  transformer: {
    getTransformOptions: async () => ({
      transform: {
        experimentalImportSupport: false,
        inlineRequires: true,
      },
    }),
  },
};

src/service/index.js

import { ApolloClient, InMemoryCache } from "@apollo/client";

const client = new ApolloClient({
  uri: "https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql",
  cache: new InMemoryCache(),
});

export default client;

src/queries/index.js

import { gql } from "@apollo/client";

const INFO_PERSON = gql`

    characters {
      results {
