How to use @graphql-tools/utils 8.x for directives that utilise resolvers

[laurisvan]

In prior versions, (at least 7.x) it was possible to create a directive that called resolve(), e.g.

directive @protect(featureSets: [FeatureSet!]!) on FIELD_DEFINITION | ARGUMENT_DEFINITION

which could be used like

myBulletins( limit: Int = 100 @auth @protect(featureSets: [TALENT, COORDINATOR, PLANNER, ADMIN]) ): [Bulletin!]! @auth

and it was possible to resolve GraphQL context when executing the directive. I am not 100% sure it ever worked, but at least it did compile and the types permitted that. As per the new API, this is no longer possible.

In our use case, we would like to restrict the usage of certain parameters by directives, where the actual role of the user (as in this sample) is inferred from context. How might I do this with the new API?

What do you mean by executing directives? Could you give a code example or reproduction on CodeSandbox? Thanks
