How to customise mutation validation error messages

Hi,

I’ve been trying to customise mutation validation errors but so far didn’t succeed in doing so, having the following query I would like to be able to return errors if different shape

mutation CreateProject($projectName: String!, $description: String!) {
  createProject(projectName: $projectName, description: $description) {
    id
    projectName
    description
  }
}

Standard errors look like

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Variable \"$description\" of required type \"String!\" was not provided.",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 47
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

What I would like to have is

{
  "errors": [
    {
        "$description": "Error message...",
        "locations": [...]
    }
}

So is it possible to adjust error response format?

Thanks.

Looking forward for the doc section regarding customization of error messages.

So I managed to make it and here is my solution

Custom view

from typing import Any, Dict

from graphene_django.views import GraphQLView
from graphql.error import GraphQLError

from graph.format_error import format_error


class MyGraphQLView(GraphQLView):
    @staticmethod
    def format_error(error) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        if isinstance(error, GraphQLError):
            return format_error(error)

        return GraphQLView.format_error(error)

Error formatter

from typing import Dict, Any

from graphql import GraphQLError


def format_error(error: GraphQLError) -> Dict[str, Any]:
    """Extract field from ``error`` and return formatted error
    :param error: GraphQLError
    :return: mapping of fieldName -> error message
    """
    formatted_error = {
        e.variable.name.value: str(e)
        for e in error.nodes
    }

    if error.path:
        formatted_error["path"] = error.path

    return formatted_error
