Recommended way of combining rules

Question about GraphQL Shield

Our schema is split between multiple typeDefs files and we use a lot of type extensions. I would like to keep the permissions near that. Either inside a resolver extension (similar to #152, but using ardatan/graphql-tools#1279 and graphql/graphql-js#1527) or as a separate file beside the typeDefs.
My problem is that we need to combine that in some way after it. What is the recommended way to do that?

Thanks!

So the current work around it to use lodash merge, it works good enough for us but it will not detect duplicate rules. Maybe a util in the library would be useful? @maticzav

Thank you for your patience with this question.

My thinking is that if you can already do that with other libraries, we don't need new functions per se. If, however, we figure out that there are potential features that can't be achieved without specific "internal" function, we should create a new one.

Yeah external is fine I guess.
