    Modify graphql property before render

    I have site v7 that is using umbraco graphql package. I have doctype alert which I can get using query like:

    { content {
    byUrl(url: "/alerts/test/") {
      ... on Alert {
        _contentData {
          name
        },title
        summary
      }
    }}}
    

    What i want to do is before render for the summary field which is rich text edit field modify img tag. I have service to do this however I am unsure how to tap in the rendering process of graphql to intercept. I have for now got project using actual source code of umbraco graphql project.

    Would I need to modify StringValueResolver and create my own StringGraphType that does the transformation?

            public override Type GetGraphQLType(PublishedPropertyType propertyType)
        {
    
            if (propertyType.PropertyTypeAlias == "summary")
            {
                return typeof(CustomStringGraphType);
            }
    
            return propertyType.ClrType == typeof(string) 
                ? typeof(StringGraphType)
                : typeof(ListGraphType<StringGraphType>);
        }
    

    And in my CustomStringGraphType override

        public override object Serialize(object value)
    {
      return value;
    }
    

    and do my transformation there?

    OK so managed to get this sorted. I modified ComplexGraphTypeOfIPublishedContentExtensions.cs and around line 113 added the following:

     if (AlertWithImage(context, publishedProperty))
                        {
                            HtmlString tmp = (HtmlString) propertyValue;
                            var transformed = encoder.Convert(tmp.ToHtmlString());
                            HtmlString html = new HtmlString(transformed);
                            propertyValue = html;
                        }
    

    That did it
