Rest directive is not defined and throws errors if manually defined

[basicdays]

I'm currently using the apollo-link-rest package and using the @rest directive in my gql queries. I'm manually including type definitions for the rest fields to ensure that those fields are correctly defined.

Intended outcome:

I was expecting that would have been all I needed to do to get @rest fields to work correctly without VSCode flagging them as errors.

Actual outcome:

However, when I'm creating a query that includes @rest, VSCode is flagging those directives with Unknown directive "@rest"., and the field that it is attached to as @client directive is missing on local field "< field name >".

I've also tried manually including the @rest directive schema in apollo.config.js in the includes section with "./node_modules/apollo-link-rest/schema.graphql". When I do that, the @rest directive is now correctly typed, however the Apollo GraphQL output tab in VSCode is now throwing out constant errors:

(node:20517) Warning: Setting the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable to '0' makes TLS connections and HTTPS requests insecure by disabling certificate verification.
(node:20517) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: The type of @rest(bodySerializer:) must be Input Type but got: RestFunctionOrString.

Union type RestFunctionOrString can only include Object types, it cannot include String.

Union type RestFunctionOrString can only include Object types, it cannot include RestFunction.

How to reproduce the issue:

For ease of reproduction, I've created a GitHub repository that replicates the issue: https://github.com/basicdays/ghtest
Setup instructions are in that readme. All you need to do is open the folder in VSCode and look at the Apollo GraphQL in the output window. The queries in question are found in ./lib/index.js.

Versions

After installing with the latest tag from npm, looks like I'm using:

• @apollo/client: ^3.3.3
• apollo-link-rest: ^0.8.0-beta.0

I also have version 1.17.1 of the Apollo GraphQL VSCode extension

Side note, looks like the schema in question was introduced here: apollographql/apollo-link-rest#228
