Before handler

Purpose: Execute your code before a request is handled.

 before-handler
 ...
 end-before-handler

Every Gliimly request goes through a request dispatcher (see request()), which is auto-generated. In order to specify your code to execute before a request is handled, create source file "before_request.gliim" and implement code that starts with "before-handler" and ends with "end-before-handler", which will be automatically picked up and compiled with your application.

If no request executes (for example if your application does not handle a given request), before-handler handler does not execute either.

Examples

Here is a simple implementation of before-handler handler that just outputs "Getting Started!!":

 before-handler
     @Getting Started!!
 end-before-handler
