minimiddle

A mini javascript middleware pattern implementation forked from darrenscerri/Middleware.js.

Usage

$ npm install --save minimiddle

const assert = require('assert');
const Middleware = require('minimiddle');

// Create a middleware instance
var middleware = new Middleware();

// Apply first middleware function
middleware.use((arg, next) => {
  arg.num += 2;
  next();
});

// Apply second middleware function
middleware.use((arg, next) => {
  arg.num *= 3;
  next();
});

// Run middlewares
middleware.go({ num: 0 }, (arg) => {
  assert.ok(arg.num === 6);
});

APIs

• use(func(...args, next)): Add middleware function to stack.

// Example 1: middlewares with single argument

middleware.use((arg, next) => {
  arg.msg = 'middleware';
  next();
});

middleware.use((arg, next) => {
  arg.msg += ' example 1';
  next();
});

// Example 2: middlewares with multiple arguments

middleware.use((arg1, arg2, arg3, next) => {
  arg1.msg = 'middleware example 2';
  arg2.msg = 'middleware example 2';
  arg3.msg = 'middleware example 2';
  next();
});

middleware.use((arg1, arg2, arg3, next) => {
  arg1.msg += ' arg1';
  arg2.msg += ' arg2';
  arg3.msg += ' arg3';
  next();
});

• go(...args, done(...args)): Run middlewares.

// Example 1 (Cont.): run middleware with single argument
middleware.go({ msg: 'init msg' }, (arg) => {
  console.log(arg.msg); // prints 'middleware example 1'
});

// Example 2 (Cont.): run middleware with multiple arguments
middleware.go({ msg: '1st msg' }, { msg: '2nd msg' }, { msg: '3rd msg' }, (arg1, arg2, arg3) => {
  console.log(arg1.msg); // prints 'middleware example 2 arg1'
  console.log(arg2.msg); // prints 'middleware example 2 arg2'
  console.log(arg3.msg); // prints 'middleware example 2 arg3'
});
