I want graphiql to send an authentication token to server. The package you use allows graphiql interface customization. For example you can add input fields into the toolbar.

Currently you use the default graphiql interface without any customization.

It would be convenient, if I could define the following configuration for an endpoint:

# app/config/config_dev.yml
# overblog_graphql.definitions.schema
authentication:
  # optionally namespaced by endpoint name specified in overblog_graphql.definitions.schema
  send_method: "header" # header, query-string, ...
  fields: # fields to send using specified method
    access-token: "myaccesstoken"

Currently you need to override/extend the default template, which is unsafe.

Hi,
that's true but if you using JWT auth the token is dynamic so we must implement a way to send them to server... I'll see how to add this!

Currently working around it the following way:

# app/config/config_dev.yml
parameters:
  overblog_graphql.graphiql_template: 'graphiql.html.twig'

{# app/Resources/views/graphiql.html.twig #}
{% extends 'OverblogGraphQLBundle:GraphiQL:index.html.twig' %}

{% block graphql_fetcher_headers %}
  headers = {
    "Accept": "application/json",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "access-token": "sometokenhere"
  };
{% endblock graphql_fetcher_headers %}

Isn't very cool but easy to get going. Maybe add it to docs? Better some solution than no.
