<h1 id="route-data-validation">Route Data Validation</h1>
<p>Route data can be anything, so it&apos;s easy to go wrong. Accidentally adding a <code>:role</code> key instead of <code>:roles</code> might hinder the whole routing app without any authorization in place.</p>
<p>To fail fast, we could use the custom <code>:coerce</code> and <code>:compile</code> hooks to apply data validation and throw exceptions on first sighted problem.</p>
<p>But there is a better way. Router has a <code>:validation</code> hook to validate the whole route tree after it&apos;s successfully compiled. It expects a 2-arity function <code>routes opts =&gt; ()</code> that can side-effect in case of validation errors.</p>
<h2 id="clojurespec">clojure.spec</h2>
<p>Namespace <code>reitit.spec</code> contains specs for main parts of <code>reitit.core</code> and a helper function <code>validate</code> that runs spec validation for all route data and throws an exception if any errors are found.</p>
<p>A Router with invalid route data:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">require</span> &apos;[reitit.core <span class="hljs-symbol">:as</span> r])
(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:handler</span> <span class="hljs-string">&quot;identity&quot;</span>}])
<span class="hljs-comment">; #object[reitit.core$...]</span>
</code></pre>
<p>Failing fast with <code>clojure.spec</code> validation turned on:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">require</span> &apos;[reitit.spec <span class="hljs-symbol">:as</span> rs])
(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:handler</span> <span class="hljs-string">&quot;identity&quot;</span>}]
{<span class="hljs-symbol">:validate</span> rs/validate})
<span class="hljs-comment">; CompilerException clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo: Invalid route data:</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">; -- On route -----------------------</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">; &quot;/api&quot;</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">; In: [:handler] val: &quot;identity&quot; fails spec: :reitit.spec/handler at: [:handler] predicate: fn?</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">;</span>
<span class="hljs-comment">; {:problems (#reitit.spec.Problem{:path &quot;/api&quot;, :scope nil, :data {:handler &quot;identity&quot;}, :spec :reitit.spec/default-data, :problems #:clojure.spec.alpha{:problems ({:path [:handler], :pred clojure.core/fn?, :val &quot;identity&quot;, :via [:reitit.spec/default-data :reitit.spec/handler], :in [:handler]}), :spec :reitit.spec/default-data, :value {:handler &quot;identity&quot;}}})}, compiling: ...</span>
</code></pre>
<h3 id="pretty-errors">Pretty errors</h3>
<p>Turning on <a href="error_messages.html#pretty-errors">Pretty Errors</a> will give much nicer error messages:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">require</span> &apos;[reitit.dev.pretty <span class="hljs-symbol">:as</span> pretty])
(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:handler</span> <span class="hljs-string">&quot;identity&quot;</span>}]
{<span class="hljs-symbol">:validate</span> rs/validate
<span class="hljs-symbol">:exception</span> pretty/exception})
</code></pre>
<p><img src="../images/pretty-error.png" alt="Pretty error"></p>
<h3 id="customizing-spec-validation">Customizing spec validation</h3>
<p><code>rs/validate</code> reads the following router options:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>key</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><code>:spec</code></td>
<td>the spec to verify the route data (default <code>::rs/default-data</code>)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>:reitit.spec/wrap</code></td>
<td>function of <code>spec =&gt; spec</code> to wrap all route specs</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p><strong>NOTE</strong>: <code>clojure.spec</code> implicitly validates all values with fully-qualified keys if specs exist with the same name.</p>
<p>Invalid spec value:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">require</span> &apos;[clojure.spec.alpha <span class="hljs-symbol">:as</span> s])
(<span class="hljs-name">s/def</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">::role</span> #{<span class="hljs-symbol">:admin</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">:manager</span>})
(<span class="hljs-name">s/def</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">::roles</span> (<span class="hljs-name">s/coll-of</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">::role</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">:into</span> #{}))
(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:handler</span> identity
<span class="hljs-symbol">::roles</span> #{<span class="hljs-symbol">:adminz</span>}}]
{<span class="hljs-symbol">:validate</span> rs/validate
<span class="hljs-symbol">:exception</span> pretty/exception})
</code></pre>
<p><img src="../images/invalid_roles.png" alt="Invalid Role Error"></p>
<h2 id="closed-specs">Closed Specs</h2>
<p>To fail-fast on non-defined and misspelled keys on route data, we can close the specs using <code>:reitit.spec/wrap</code> options with value of <code>spec-tools.spell/closed</code> that closed the top-level specs.</p>
<p>Requiring a<code>:description</code> and validating using closed specs:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">require</span> &apos;[spec-tools.spell <span class="hljs-symbol">:as</span> spell])
(<span class="hljs-name">s/def</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">::description</span> string?)
(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:summary</span> <span class="hljs-string">&quot;kikka&quot;</span>}]
{<span class="hljs-symbol">:validate</span> rs/validate
<span class="hljs-symbol">:spec</span> (<span class="hljs-name">s/merge</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">::rs/default-data</span>
(<span class="hljs-name">s/keys</span> <span class="hljs-symbol">:req-un</span> [<span class="hljs-symbol">::description</span>]))
<span class="hljs-symbol">::rs/wrap</span> spell/closed
<span class="hljs-symbol">:exception</span> pretty/exception})
</code></pre>
<p><img src="../images/closed-spec1.png" alt="Closed Spec error"></p>
<p>It catches also typing errors:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-clj">(<span class="hljs-name">r/router</span>
[<span class="hljs-string">&quot;/api&quot;</span> {<span class="hljs-symbol">:descriptionz</span> <span class="hljs-string">&quot;kikka&quot;</span>}]
