here is my code:
```auto
class hasServiceDirective extends SchemaDirectiveVisitor {
visitFieldDefinition(field) {
const { resolve = defaultFieldResolver } = field;
// reading directive args
console.log(this.visitedType.name);
const { service } = this.args;
console.log("Inside FieldDefinition function");
field.resolve = async (...args) => {
const context = args[2];
const services = context.services;
if(services.includes(service)) {
return await resolve.apply(this, args);
} else {
return "";
}
}
}
}
```
```auto
const server = new ApolloServer({
modules: [blogModule],
schemaDirectives: {
hasService: hasServiceDirective,
},
plugins: [loggingPlugin],
context: ({event}) => {
const headers = event.headers;
const userId = headers.userid || null;
const services = headers.services || null;
return {
userId,
services,
prisma
};
},
playground: {
//endpoint: "/dev/graphql"
settings: {
'schema.polling.enable': false,
'schema.polling.interval': 5000,
}
}
});
```
```auto
const books = [
{
title: 'The Awakening',
author: 'Kate Chopin',
},
{
title: 'City of Glass',
author: 'Paul Auster',
},
];
const users = [
{
name: 'Manish',
password: 'manish@123',
},
{
name: 'Monu',
password: 'monu@123',
},
];
```
If i user typeDefs, resolver property in apolloServer, my custom Directive is working but when i use modules, it isn’t working. I will have many typeDefs and resolvers in future so I m using modules property of ApolloServer constructor to call schemas.

What version of Apollo Server are you using?

Hi @abernix sorry for late reply.
I was using apollo server v3.0…I found that apollo server 3.0 does not have documentation for customDirective. Now I m on 2.xx.x version. Now it is working.
I assume apollo server v3.0 does not support Custom Directives?

This is covered in [the migration guide for v3](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/migration/#schemadirectives).

Ah yes, and we’ve restored the [custom directives article](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/schema/creating-directives/) in the 3.x documentation with updated instructions.
