## Adding middleware
Middleware is any piece of functionality that is interpolated into
a larger process. A key feature of middleware is that it can be used
with other middlewares in sequence and not have to worry about the order
of execution.
In `silverstripe-graphql`, middleware is used for query execution,
but could ostensibly be used elsewhere too if the API ever accomodates
such an expansion.
[notice]
The middleware API in the silverstripe-graphql module is separate from other common middleware
APIs in Silverstripe CMS, such as HTTPMiddleware.
[/notice]
The signature for middleware looks like this:
```php
public function process(Schema $schema, $query, $context, $vars, callable $next)
```
* `$schema`: The underlying [Schema](http://webonyx.github.io/graphql-php/type-system/schema/) object.
Useful to inspect whether types are defined in a schema.
* `$query`: The raw query string.
* `$context`: An arbitrary array which holds information shared between resolvers.
Use implementors of `SilverStripe\GraphQL\Schema\Interfaces\ContextProvider` to get and set
data, rather than relying on the array keys directly.
* `$vars`: An array of (optional) [Query Variables](https://graphql.org/learn/queries/#variables).
* `$next`: A callable referring to the next middleware in the chain
Let's write a simple middleware that logs our queries as they come in.
```php
use SilverStripe\GraphQL\QueryHandler\UserContextProvider;
use GraphQL\Type\Schema;
class LoggingMiddleware implements Middleware
{
public function process(Schema $schema, $query, $context, $vars, callable $next)
{
$member = UserContextProvider::get($context);
Injector::inst()->get(LoggerInterface::class)
->info(sprintf(
'Query executed: %s by %s',
$query,
$member ? $member->Title : '<anonymous>';
));
// Hand off execution to the next middleware
return $next($params);
}
}
```
Now we can register the middleware with our query handler:
```yaml
SilverStripe\GraphQL\QueryHandler\QueryHandlerInterface.default:
class: SilverStripe\GraphQL\QueryHandler\QueryHandler
properties:
Middlewares:
logging: '%$MyProject\Middleware\LoggingMiddleware'
```
