Types

type Chain

type Chain struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Chain acts as a list of reactor.Handler constructors. Chain is effectively immutable: once created, it will always hold the same set of constructors in the same order.

func New

func New(constructors ...Constructor) Chain

New creates a new chain, memorizing the given list of middleware constructors. New serves no other function, constructors are only called upon a call to Then().

func (Chain) Append

func (c Chain) Append(constructors ...Constructor) Chain

Append extends a chain, adding the specified constructors as the last ones in the request flow.

Append returns a new chain, leaving the original one untouched.

stdChain := alice.New(m1, m2)
extChain := stdChain.Append(m3, m4)
// requests in stdChain go m1 -> m2
// requests in extChain go m1 -> m2 -> m3 -> m4

func (Chain) Then

func (c Chain) Then(h reactor.Handler) reactor.Handler

Then chains the middleware and returns the final reactor.Handler.

New(m1, m2, m3).Then(h)

is equivalent to:

m1(m2(m3(h)))

When the request comes in, it will be passed to m1, then m2, then m3 and finally, the given handler (assuming every middleware calls the following one).

A chain can be safely reused by calling Then() several times.

stdStack := chain.New(ratelimitHandler, csrfHandler)
indexPipe = stdStack.Then(indexHandler)
authPipe = stdStack.Then(authHandler)

Note that constructors are called on every call to Then() and thus several instances of the same middleware will be created when a chain is reused in this way. For proper middleware, this should cause no problems.

func (Chain) ThenFunc

func (c Chain) ThenFunc(fn reactor.HandlerFunc) reactor.Handler

ThenFunc works identically to Then, but takes a HandlerFunc instead of a Handler.

The following two statements are equivalent:

c.Then(reactor.HandlerFunc(fn))
c.ThenFunc(fn)

ThenFunc provides all the guarantees of Then.

type Constructor

type Constructor func(reactor.Handler) reactor.Handler

Constructor for middleware builder
