Request interceptor for pre-handle & post handle for any API Endpoint or Web Page

[developershyam]

Goals

I want to execute logic before request send to any API / Web Page to be executed which can be called request pre-handle interceptor.
And after that my API / Page logic execution I want to do request post-handle which I feel missing in NextJs built-in function.

It's just like in any other framework we have this feature. They provide filter chain that can control request/response.

Pre-Handle can be achieved by middleware.
Post-Handle missing??

One way is it can be done via custom server like express.

express request --->
                        // my  pre logic 
                        handle() //  NextJS API/Page execution 
                       // my  post logic
 <----- express response 

Goal: Need feature to take more control on request processing

1. Request interceptor pre-handle - middleware can be used
2. Request post-handle - ??

Non-Goals

No response

Background

As other framework allows us to do request pre-processing & post-processing.
This is really useful & provide more flexibility in framework when someone want to do their own customization on top of framework.

Proposal

I am interested in if middleware can handle this like in express or any node-based server does.

Until you call NextResponse.next() the request should not go inside the API/Endpoint.

This will allow to take control & manage stuff at their own end.

As middleware is supporting only Edge Runtime.
Is there any better way to intercept request before & after any API/Page execution in full node runtime?

Framework should delegate power to the consumer if needed that will be fantastic.
