Update Next.js examples using Apollo Server 3 to use Apollo Server 4 (and this integration)

[martinnabhan]

There are currently three Next.js examples using Apollo Server:

• api-routes-apollo-server-and-client-auth
• api-routes-apollo-server-and-client
• api-routes-apollo-server

These examples all use Apollo Server 3 with apollo-server-micro. I'm thinking we should update these to use Apollo Server 4 (and this integration), making it easier for new users to use Next.js with the latest version of Apollo Server.

Some of these examples are quite old so I'm not sure how much work it's going to be to upgrade them.

I'd be happy to submit a PR for this once a release is available. I know there has been some confusion historically where users have been using apollo-server-micro only because that's what the examples show. This is actually how I found this repo. I was trying to figure out how to run the apollo server 4 with next 🙂.

That would be great! I just released v1.0.0 yesterday, and as soon as Next.js 13 support gets merged and released (#34) you should be able to update the Next.js examples to use Apollo Server 4 and this integration without any issues.

[martinnabhan]

I've just released #34 so the integration should be compatible with Next.js 13 now!

Cool. I've started updating the examples. Will link the PR here within the next day or so.

Submitted a PR here : vercel/next.js#42771 . The PR updates all three examples to use Apollo Server 4, @as-integrations/next, and to use TypeScript.

It would also be useful to test this against the new edge-runtime, which is sure to be the future going forward soon enough I think

vercel/next.js#42771 got merged so I'm closing this.
Awesome work @idoob, thank you!
