@enisdenjo Hi, hope you are doing great, do you know if is in the plans work on this item?, or if not what is the guide for contribute, because this is a must on my apps to migrate from graphql-express. I think I will be return to graphql-express until this is already done, if you need help to contribute this feature, it should be a pleasure to help.

This is now live with v1.17.0, example usage with express would roughly be (very similar for all other node-style handlers too):

import express from 'express'; // yarn add express
import { createHandler } from 'graphql-http/lib/use/express';
import { schema } from './my-graphql-schema';

const app = express();
app.all(
  '/graphql',
  createHandler({
    schema,
    context(req) {
      req.context.res.setHeader('x-my-header', 'my-value');
      return undefined;
    },
  }),
);

app.listen({ port: 4000 });
console.log('Listening to port 4000');
