I've had the same question. What I've come up with is to introduce a new
middleware in the the dev-system, which wraps the both the creation of the
app handler and calling the handler with the request map. The prod-system
would still refer directly to a single instance of the app handler.
Now in dev-mode, on every request, a new handler is both created and
executed. There is a potential performance impact of re-creating the app
ring handlers, but I haven't noticed any issues yet, and this is only for
development mode, so I'm not too concerned about it. The improved repl
experience is valuable to me.
Using your code:
(defn app [] (app-handler
[home-routes user-routes base-routes]
:middleware (load-middleware)
:ring-defaults (mk-defaults false)
:access-rules []
:formats [:json-kw :edn :transit-json]))
(defn dev-system []
(component/system-map
:web (new-web-server (env :http-port) (fn [] (fn [req] ((app) req)))))
(defn prod-system []
(component/system-map
:web (new-web-server (env :http-port) (app)))
