Overview

Graphweaver provides powerful capabilities for automatically generating GraphQL schemas and types at runtime.

Yet, there may be situations where you need to customise the behaviour of Graphweaver to suit your specific application requirements.

Overview of Graphweaver Customisation

Graphweaver is designed to be extensible, allowing you to add custom queries, mutations, and other functionality to your GraphQL API.

Customisation in Graphweaver typically involves adding additional queries or mutations or modifying the entities exposed by the API.

Here are some common scenarios where you might need to customise Graphweaver:

1. Implementing custom business logic: You may need to define custom queries or mutations to perform specific operations that are not covered by the automatically generated CRUD operations.
2. Modifying the generated schema: You might want to tweak the generated GraphQL schema to add additional fields, modify field behaviour, or introduce custom types. This is especially true for modifying the input types.
3. Enhancing error handling and validation: You can customise the error handling and validation logic in Graphweaver to align with your application's requirements and error response formats.

Next, let’s look at how you can add a custom query or mutation.

How to Add a Custom Query or Mutation

Custom queries and mutations can be defined anywhere in your project.
