This commit introduces a new type-level combinator, `WithRoutingHeader`. It modifies the behaviour of the following sub-API, such that all endpoint of said API return an additional routing header in their response. A routing header is a header that specifies which endpoint the incoming request was routed to. Endpoint are designated by their path, in which `Capture'` and `CaptureAll` combinators are replaced by a capture hint. This header can be used by downstream middlewares to gather information about individual endpoints, since in most cases a routing header uniquely identifies a single endpoint. Example: ```haskell type MyApi = WithRoutingHeader :> "by-id" :> Capture "id" Int :> Get '[JSON] Foo -- GET /by-id/1234 will return a response with the following header: -- ("Servant-Routed-Path", "/by-id/<id::Int>") ``` To achieve this, two refactorings were necessary: * Introduce a type `RouterEnv env` to encapsulate the `env` type (as in `Router env a`), which contains a tuple-encoded list of url pieces parsed from the incoming request. This type makes it possible to pass more information throughout the routing process, and the computation of the `Delayed env c` associated with each request. * Introduce a new kind of router, which only modifies the RouterEnv, and doesn't affect the routing process otherwise. `EnvRouter (RouterEnv env -> RouterEnv env) (Router' env a)` This new router is used when encountering the `WithRoutingHeader` combinator in an API, to notify the endpoints of the sub-API that they must produce a routing header (this behaviour is disabled by default). |
