Reload schema command doesn't reflect added fields

[venkatd]

I have a apollo.config.js like this:

module.exports = {
  client: {
    includes: ['src/**/*.js', 'src/*.js'],
    service: {
      url: 'http://localhost:4000'
    }
  },
};

If I add a field tohttp://localhost:4000 and run the Apollo: Reload schema command, this field is not picked up unless I completely restart VSCode.

Hoping to get this working for a demo on Apollo I'm giving next week :). Will make the workflow a lot smoother if I can modify the backend and then show the results immediately.

A minimal reproduction is below:
reload-test.zip

Steps to reproduce:

• npm install
• npm server.js
• Open the folder in vscode and in src/client.js you'll be able to see that autocomplete is working properly
• stop the server, uncomment the year property, and restart the server
• In vscode, run the Apollo: Reload schema command
• Go back to src/client.js and try to type something. You'll see that the year field is not being picked up
• Restart vscode and go back to src/client.js you'll see the year field is now available

However, if I do the same but I comment out a field such as author and call the reload schema command, this gets picked up properly without needing a restart with a message like Cannot query field "author" on type "Book".

Any guidance on where to begin investigating would be appreciated!

Ok, I think I found a fix for this just opened a PR.

Merged! Thank you so much. The reproduction is fantastic! I'll have to use this as an example for others. It made it super easy to test :)
