rust_web_server/middleware/

mod.rs

//! Composable middleware pipeline.
//!
//! [`Middleware`] is a single layer that wraps request dispatch. Implement it
//! to add cross-cutting behaviour — logging, authentication, rate limiting,
//! header injection — without editing the inner application.
//!
//! [`WithMiddleware`] stacks one or more middleware layers around any
//! [`Application`]. Layers run in registration order on the way in and in
//! reverse order on the way out.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use rust_web_server::middleware::{Middleware, WithMiddleware};
//! use rust_web_server::application::Application;
//! use rust_web_server::request::Request;
//! use rust_web_server::response::Response;
//! use rust_web_server::server::ConnectionInfo;
//! use rust_web_server::app::App;
//! use rust_web_server::core::New;
//!
//! pub struct LoggingMiddleware;
//!
//! impl Middleware for LoggingMiddleware {
//!     fn handle(
//!         &self,
//!         request: &Request,
//!         connection: &ConnectionInfo,
//!         next: &dyn Application,
//!     ) -> Result<Response, String> {
//!         println!("{} {}", request.method, request.request_uri);
//!         let response = next.execute(request, connection)?;
//!         println!("  → {}", response.status_code);
//!         Ok(response)
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! let app = WithMiddleware::new(App::new())
//!     .wrap(LoggingMiddleware);
//! ```
