GraphQL Instrumentation allows you to inject code that can observe the execution of a query and also change the runtime behaviour. Let's take advantage of this to log the graphql request's query, variables, any exceptions thrown and execution time.

To do this we create a spring bean of type graphql.execution.instrumentation.Instrumentation.
To remove boilerplace no-op code, we override no-op SimpleInstrumentation implementation and just override the beginExecution method.

We then return a SimpleInstrumentationContext with an whenCompleted callable containing our duration logic and log message.

It is possible that multiple Instrumentation objects are in one graphql server.

In the next video, I demo the TracingInstrumentation that will capture the execution time of the fields and place the results into the graphql response.

See you in the next video!

Cheers!
Philip
