Description
## 💬 Question here
I'd like to use data from an earlier hook as part of the schema for a later route. Is this possible to do? For example:
```js
fastify.post(
'/',
{
schema: {
body: {
type: 'object',
properties: {
myCoolProp: { enum: req.arrayValueFromEarlierHook },
},
required: ['myCoolProp'],
},
},
},
async (req, res) => {
// bleh
},
);
````
I know I could also do the validation manually in the route handler itself, but it'd be nice to get the built-in error messaging, etc. by using a schema. I realize it's not possible to simply declare it the way I did in the example above since they're compiled on server start, but the example is just to get the use case across. I was looking at adding a custom keyword as well, but it doesn't appear the keyword validate function has access to the request object either. Is there a straightforward way to achieve this, or is this simply not possible?
