langchain[patch]: Minor Fix: Enable Passing custom_headers for Authentication in GraphQL Agent/Tool (#16413)
- **Description:**
This PR aims to enhance the `langchain` library by enabling the support
for passing `custom_headers` in the `GraphQLAPIWrapper` usage within
`langchain/agents/load_tools.py`.
While the `GraphQLAPIWrapper` from the `langchain_community` module is
inherently capable of handling `custom_headers`, its current invocation
in `load_tools.py` does not facilitate this functionality.
This limitation restricts the use of the `graphql` tool with databases
or APIs that require token-based authentication.
The absence of support for `custom_headers` in this context also leads
to a lack of error messages when attempting to interact with secured
GraphQL endpoints, making debugging and troubleshooting more
challenging.
This update modifies the `load_tools` function to correctly handle
`custom_headers`, thereby allowing secure and authenticated access to
GraphQL services requiring tokens.
Example usage after the proposed change:
```python
tools = load_tools(
["graphql"],
graphql_endpoint="https://your-graphql-endpoint.com/graphql",
custom_headers={"Authorization": f"Token {api_token}"},
)
```
