Hello!

I have recently discovered that calling Absinthe.Plug.put_options , in my case to add some information to the context, actually overwrites whatever might have been set as the context before. I have two plugs for my router, one that auths and adds the user to the context, and another that adds a workspace ID to the context. I know I could just combine these plugs but that kind of defeats the point of plugs (modular parts of a pipeline).

Absinthe.Plug.put_options(conn, context: %{authenticated: true, current_user: user})
Absinthe.Plug.put_options(conn, context: %{workspace: current_workspace})

So the question is, is there any way that I could modify the context object instead of overwriting it? I’d be happy to just get the current context, merge the new options, and call put_options with the merged object but I can’t see a great way to get the current context. Only way I can see is to grab it from conn.private.absinthe but that doesn’t feel right.
