// Currently there is a gap in the API for supporting | |
// intecepting requests by specific order. An intercept() | |
// will call all intercept handlers registered against a route, in order. | |
// In some cases, you may want them to be order-specific. i.e., | |
// fire an intercept, when the next time the route is hit fire another. | |
// It can be achieved today with the current API, but it requires | |
// a bit of boilerplate and isn't trivial for those who don't understand | |
// the inner-workings of the API (it trolled Alex, and I didn't know immediately what | |
// the stacking behavior would be without looking through the docs/implementation). | |
// | |
// Here is one proposal for an API that tries to solve this: | |
// | |
server.get('/person/1') | |
.intercept((req, res, e) => { | |
// will prevent the next interceptor for get('/person/1') | |
// from being called (line 20). And since we used `once`, the | |
// next handler called the next time `/person/1` is hit is the interceptor on line 20. | |
e.stopPropagation(); | |
res.status(200).json({ | |
id: 1, | |
name: 'Tom' | |
}); | |
}) | |
.times(1); | |
server.delete('/person/1') | |
.intercept((req, res) => res.status(200)); | |
server.get('/person/1') | |
.intercept((req, res) => res.status(404)) | |
.times(1); |
