Understanding expressjs middleware with a visual example
A middleware function takes 3 arguments as seen below.
function(req, res, next){
// Your business logic goes here
}
For example, you could implement a simple request logger by defining middleware function that does just that.
function(req, res, next){
// Basic logging for all the routes
console.log(req.method + ':' + req.originalUrl);
next();
};
