Summary

Fixes symbol-keyed GraphQL extensions being dropped on GraphQL.js v17+ when using makeExecutableSchema / schemaExtensions, mergeExtensions / applyExtensions, or extractExtensionsFromSchema.

GraphQL.js v17 supports string | symbol keys on extensions (toObjMapWithSymbols). Tools was still treating extensions as string-key-only maps.

Fixes #8444

What was wrong

  1. mergeDeep only iterated enumerable string keys (for...in), so symbol keys never made it into the merged object.
  2. extractExtensionsFromSchema needed an explicit symbol copy for non-enumerable own symbols (enumerable ones already survive object rest/spread).

On GraphQL.js below v17 nothing changes: GraphQL itself does not preserve symbol extension keys below v17.

Example

import { makeExecutableSchema } from '@graphql-tools/schema'

const META = Symbol('META')

const schema = makeExecutableSchema({
  typeDefs: /* GraphQL */ `
    type Query {
      hello: String
    }
  `,
  schemaExtensions: {
    schemaExtensions: {
      [META]: { source: 'app' },
      tagged: true,
    },
    types: {},
  },
})

// Before (GraphQL v17): { tagged: true }
// After:                { tagged: true, [META]: { source: 'app' } }

mergeDeep API

Preferred form is an options object. Positional booleans remain supported but are deprecated.

import { mergeDeep } from '@graphql-tools/utils'

// Deprecated (still works)
mergeDeep([a, b], false, true, false, true)
//                proto  arrays len   non-enumerable symbols only

// Preferred
mergeDeep([a, b], {
  respectPrototype: false,
  respectArrays: true,
  respectArrayLength: false,
  respectSymbols: {
    enumerable: true, // keys set via obj[sym] = value
    nonEnumerable: true, // keys from defineProperty(..., { enumerable: false })
  },
})
  • Default remains "drop symbols" (enumerable: false, nonEnumerable: false).
  • Legacy 5th positional true still means { nonEnumerable: true } only.
  • Extension merge/extract turns on { enumerable: true, nonEnumerable: true } when graphql major >= 17.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Preserved symbol-keyed schema, type, field, and resolver extensions when building, merging, and extracting schemas with GraphQL.js v17 and later.
    • Retained enumerable and non-enumerable symbol properties, including duplicate-key handling.
    • Maintained existing behavior with GraphQL.js versions below 17.
  • Improvements

    • Added configurable symbol handling for deep merging.
    • Extension objects now support both string and symbol keys.
    • Existing positional merge options remain supported but are deprecated.

Walkthrough

The change adds configurable symbol handling to mergeDeep, preserves symbol-keyed extensions for GraphQL.js v17+, updates schema extraction and resolver merging, widens extension types, and adds version-gated tests and release documentation.

Changes

Symbol-keyed schema extensions

Layer / File(s) Summary
mergeDeep symbol options
packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts, packages/utils/tests/mergeDeep.test.ts
mergeDeep accepts options for enumerable and non-enumerable symbols. The deprecated positional API remains supported. Tests cover recursive merging, descriptors, arrays, defaults, identity returns, and compatibility.
GraphQL-versioned merge integration
packages/merge/src/extensions.ts, packages/merge/src/merge-resolvers.ts, packages/utils/src/extractExtensionsFromSchema.ts, packages/merge/tests/*
GraphQL.js v17+ enables both symbol modes for extension and resolver merging. Schema extraction copies symbol-keyed properties. Version-gated tests cover extraction, schema extension merging, and resolver merging.
Extension contracts and schema validation
packages/utils/src/types.ts, packages/utils/src/Interfaces.ts, packages/schema/tests/schemaGenerator.test.ts, .changeset/symbol-keyed-extensions.md
Extension records and resolver extension properties permit symbol keys. Schema construction tests verify symbol-keyed field and schema extensions. The changeset documents the version-dependent behavior and API changes.

A rabbit saw symbols hide in the deep,
And taught the merge their keys to keep.
Schema fields now carry each mark,
Even when those keys were dark.
GraphQL seventeen lights the way,
While older versions keep their sway.

packages/merge/src/extensions.ts:8

  • This v17 merge path still drops non-enumerable symbol keys because mergeDeep only copies them for respectSymbols: 'nonenumerable' or 'all'. GraphQL.js's toObjMapWithSymbols preserves own symbols even when the input is a null-prototype map, so a non-enumerable symbol in a schema extension can be lost when applyExtensions merges it. Preserve all symbol keys here and add a regression test for that path.
    ? ({ respectArrays: true, respectSymbols: 'enumerable' } as const)

packages/merge/src/extensions.ts:12

  • The new symbol-preserving branch in mergeExtensions is not exercised by the added tests: the makeExecutableSchema case supplies only one schema extension, and the existing mergeExtensions test uses only string keys. Add a GraphQL v17-gated merge test with multiple SchemaExtensions entries containing a symbol key so this path verifies that mergeDeepOptions is actually wired through the package integration.
  return mergeDeep(extensions, mergeExtensionsOptions);

packages/utils/src/extractExtensionsFromSchema.ts:19

  • The explanation here is inaccurate: object rest/spread does copy enumerable own symbol keys, so it does not drop every symbol key. The explicit loop is needed only for non-enumerable symbols (which this assignment also converts to enumerable properties); please correct the comment so it documents the actual behavior.
  // GraphQL v17+ preserves symbol-keyed extensions (toObjMapWithSymbols); copy them
  // explicitly because object rest/spread only keeps enumerable string keys.

packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts:211

  • If the first source defines a non-enumerable symbol without writable: true (the default for Object.defineProperty), the copied output property is non-configurable and read-only. A later source with the same symbol then reaches this branch, neither condition applies, and the earlier value is silently retained, violating the later-source-wins behavior described above. Please handle this case without silently discarding the later extension; the correct descriptor policy needs broader consideration.
                } else if (existing.writable) {
                  output[sym] = source[sym];
                }

packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts:222

  • When a prior source copied a non-enumerable symbol with a non-writable descriptor, a later source can expose the same symbol as enumerable. This assignment then writes to the read-only output property and throws in strict mode, so enabling both symbol modes is not safe for valid property descriptors. Please handle this collision consistently with the guarded non-enumerable path instead of assigning unconditionally.

🔵 Needs a closer look

Two moderate issues remain in symbol preservation and resolver merging.

Review details

Suppressed comments (2)

packages/merge/src/merge-resolvers.ts:69

  • This call still uses mergeDeep with symbol handling disabled, so makeExecutableSchema can lose a field's symbol-keyed extensions when resolver definitions are supplied as an array and the same field's extensions object is present in more than one definition: the recursive merge drops both symbol keys. That leaves GraphQL 17 schemas incomplete through the resolver path even though schemaExtensions and mergeExtensions are fixed. Preserve the extension symbols here too (version-gated if the pre-v17 behavior must remain unchanged) and add an array-resolver regression test.
  const result = mergeDeep(resolvers, { respectPrototype: true });

packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts:210

  • The non-enumerable-symbol fallback only checks existing.writable, but a non-configurable accessor property can still accept the later value through its setter (existing.set). In that case the current branch silently keeps the first source even though the comment promises later sources win; handle setter-backed descriptors the same way as the enumerable-symbol branch.
                } else if (existing.writable) {
                  output[sym] = source[sym];

Also honor setter-backed non-enumerable symbols when a later source
wins during mergeDeep.

🟡 Minor · Apply respectSymbols to single-source calls.

packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts:116-121
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Apply respectSymbols to single-source calls. mergeDeepWithOptions returns sources[0] before symbol handling. Therefore, mergeDeep([source], {}) returns enumerable and non-enumerable symbols unchanged, although MergeDeepOptions documents that omitted respectSymbols drops own symbols. Apply the symbol policy before returning the sole source, or document and test a deliberate single-source exception.

🟡 Minor · Preserve configured symbols when merging arrays.

packages/utils/src/mergeDeep.ts:142-152
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve configured symbols when merging arrays. mergeDeep documents respectSymbols as applying to own symbol keys, and ExtensionsObject permits symbol keys with arbitrary values. When multiple extension or resolver sources contain an array-valued property with own symbol metadata, the array remap and flat(1) branches rebuild the array from numeric elements and omit that metadata, even though both callers enable symbol handling for GraphQL 17+. Apply the configured enumerable and non-enumerable symbol policy while constructing the merged array.

✏️ Learnings added

URL: https://github.com/ardatan/graphql-tools/pull/8445

Timestamp: 2026-09-16T14:54:54.606Z
Learning: In graphql-tools, `mergeDeep([source])` intentionally returns the single source by identity. Symbol policies do not apply to this single-source path because removing symbols would require cloning. The `respectArrays` option remains intentionally unused to preserve the behavior of the legacy positional API.

🔵 Needs a closer look

Resolver-facing public extension types remain string-only, so symbol-keyed resolver extensions are not fully represented in the type contract.

Review details

Suppressed comments (1)

packages/utils/src/types.ts:103

  • ExtensionsObject now accepts symbol keys for SchemaExtensions, but the resolver-facing extension types used by the new mergeResolvers path remain Record<string, any> in Interfaces.ts (IFieldResolverOptions.extensions and the __extensions fields). This leaves symbol-keyed resolver extensions absent from the public IResolvers/IFieldResolverOptions type contract even though this PR preserves them at runtime; update those types and add a type-level regression case.
export type ExtensionsObject = Record<string | symbol, any>;

Re: CodeRabbit note on preserving symbol metadata on merged arrays (mergeDeep remap / flat(1) paths): skipping for this PR.

That behavior is pre-existing and outside the GraphQL extensions fix. Extension / resolver maps are plain objects; we are not relying on own-symbol props hanging off array values. Changing array construction here would need dedicated semantics + tests and is out of scope for #8444.

Use Reflect.get so unique-symbol indexing does not fail against
string-keyed GraphQL.js extension types, and alias ResolverExtensions
to ExtensionsObject.

and document the IResolvers typing change in the changeset.

🟠 Major · Preserve GraphQL.js 14.0.x compatibility.

packages/merge/src/extensions.ts:1-7
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve GraphQL.js 14.0.x compatibility. The three versionInfo imports added by this feature—in packages/merge/src/extensions.ts, packages/merge/src/merge-resolvers.ts, and packages/utils/src/extractExtensionsFromSchema.ts—are evaluated when the public modules load. GraphQL.js 14.0.x is included by the declared ^14.0.0 peer range, but it does not export versionInfo, so consumers can fail during module loading before schema processing starts. Use a compatibility-safe version check, or raise the GraphQL.js 14 peer minimum consistently to the first 14.x release that provides versionInfo. Do not change the unrelated pre-existing versionInfo imports in packages/utils.

versionInfo landed in 14.4.0; the declared ^14.0.0 peer can omit it.
Use optional chaining so module load and merge/extract paths do not
throw when major is unavailable.

Re: CodeRabbit review on GraphQL.js 14.0.x / `versionInfo`:

Confirmed: `versionInfo` (and `version`) are absent before graphql@14.4.0, and the new top-level check in `mergeExtensions` would throw on load. The three call sites added by this PR now use `versionInfo?.major >= 17` (treat missing as pre-v17). Left pre-existing `versionInfo` usages in `packages/utils` alone, as suggested.
