`actix-request-identifier` implements a middleware for
[`actix-web`](https://github.com/actix/actix-web) that generates an ID for each
incomming request. By default, a UUID v4 is generated for each request using
[`uuid`](https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid). The request ID is set via the
`x-request-id` HTTP header (which can be configured) and can be extracted from
the request using `RequestId`.

## Example

```rust
use actix_request_identifier::{RequestId, RequestIdentifier};
use actix_web::{get, App, HttpServer, Responder};

#[get("/")]
async fn show_request_id(id: RequestId) -> impl Responder {
    format!("{}", id.as_str())
}

#[actix_web::main] // or #[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    HttpServer::new(|| {
        App::new()
            .service(show_request_id)
            .wrap(RequestIdentifier::with_uuid())
    })
    .bind(("127.0.0.1", 8080))?
    .run()
    .await
}
```

The response looks like this:

```
$ curl -i 127.0.0.1:8080/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
content-length: 36
x-request-id: 5f099854-2117-49b3-b252-d6693a85acc5
date: Mon, 20 Apr 2020 06:53:49 GMT

5f099854-2117-49b3-b252-d6693a85acc5
```

If you want chronologically sortable request IDs, you can enable the
`uuid-v7-generator` feature and `RequestIdentifier::with_uuid_v7()`. This will
generate request IDs using [UUID Version
7](https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-peabody-dispatch-new-uuid-format-04.html#name-uuid-version-7).
