Transforming the Interceptor Chain
+There is an extra option in http-router (actually, in the underlying interceptor-router): :reitit.interceptor/transform to transform the interceptor chain per endpoint. Value should be a function or a vector of functions that get a vector of compiled interceptors and should return a new vector of interceptors.
Note: the last interceptor in the chain is usually the handler, compiled into an Interceptor. Applying a tranfromation clojure.core/reverse would put this interceptor into first in the chain, making the rest of the interceptors effectively unreachable. There is a helper reitit.interceptor/transform-butlast to transform all but the last interceptor.
Example Application
+(require '[reitit.http :as http])
+(require '[reitit.interceptor.sieppari :as sieppari])
+
+(defn interceptor [message]
+ {:enter (fn [ctx] (update-in ctx [:request :message] (fnil conj []) message))})
+
+(defn handler [req]
+ {:status 200
+ :body (select-keys req [:message])})
+
+(def app
+ (http/ring-handler
+ (http/router
+ ["/api" {:interceptors [(interceptor 1) (interceptor 2)]}
+ ["/ping" {:get {:interceptors [(interceptor 3)]
+ :handler handler}}]])
+ {:executor sieppari/executor}))
+
+(app {:request-method :get, :uri "/api/ping"})
+; {:status 200, :body {:message [1 2 3]}}
+
+Reversing the Interceptor Chain
+(def app
+ (http/ring-handler
+ (http/router
+ ["/api" {:interceptors [(interceptor 1) (interceptor 2)]}
+ ["/ping" {:get {:interceptors [(interceptor 3)]
+ :handler handler}}]]
+ {::interceptor/transform (interceptor/transform-butlast reverse)})
+ {:executor sieppari/executor}))
+
+(app {:request-method :get, :uri "/api/ping"})
+; {:status 200, :body {:message [3 2 1]}}
+
+Interleaving Interceptors
+(def app
+ (http/ring-handler
+ (http/router
+ ["/api" {:interceptors [(interceptor 1) (interceptor 2)]}
+ ["/ping" {:get {:interceptors [(interceptor 3)]
+ :handler handler}}]]
+ {::interceptor/transform #(interleave % (repeat (interceptor :debug)))})
+ {:executor sieppari/executor}))
+
+(app {:request-method :get, :uri "/api/ping"})
+; {:status 200, :body {:message [1 :debug 2 :debug 3 :debug]}}
+
+Printing Context Diffs
+[metosin/reitit-interceptors "0.2.9"]
+
+Using reitit.http.interceptors.dev/print-context-diffs transformation, the context diffs between each interceptor are printed out to the console. To use it, add the following router option:
:reitit.interceptor/transform reitit.http.interceptor.dev/print-context-diffs
