How to dynamically change headers

[dfritsch86]

I need to dynamically change the request headers. How to accomplish this?

You need to instantiate a new client each time you want to change the headers.

Or use the context that you pass into the headers method.

require "graphql/client"
require "graphql/client/http"

# Star Wars API example wrapper
module SWAPI
  # Configure GraphQL endpoint using the basic HTTP network adapter.
  HTTP = GraphQL::Client::HTTP.new("https://example.com/graphql") do
    def headers(context)
      { "X-Api-Key" => context[:api_key] }
    end
  end  
end

And when you perform a query on your GraphQL client, pass in the context:

storefront_api_key = "dynamic api key"
result = SWAPI::Client.query(SWAPI::MyQuery, variables: {}, context: {api_key: storefront_api_key})

So everytime you perform a query, you have the opportunity to pass in a context to alter your headers.

I really think this issue can be closed. The @tolgap solution works well
