I've tried to use your config but got an error:

undefined method `then' for #<Array:0x00007fa7892f7a78>
/Users/my_user/projects/my_project/argon/app/graphql/loaders/association_loader.rb:51:in `preload_association'

I've solved my issue with another approach, but I decided to write to you because it can be useful for future users.
Env:

• ruby 2.5.8
• rails 5.1.7
• graphql 1.11.1
• graphql-batch 0.4.3

This is #then from Ruby 2.6; try replacing it with #yield_self.

That's work! Thanks a lot!

Don't think this works on Rails 7 - preloading changed a bit, sig of ActiveRecord::Associations::Preloader changed, ::ActiveRecord::Associations::Preloader::AlreadyLoaded doesn't exist any more, etc.

Does someone have a version of this gist that applies to Rails 7 by any chance?
