Go Middleware Patterns

Build reusable, composable HTTP middleware for Go web applications.

Usage

Describe what middleware you need and get implementation examples following Go idioms.

Examples

  • "Write logging middleware that captures request duration"
  • "Build a JWT authentication middleware for my Go API"
  • "How do I chain multiple middleware functions?"

Guidelines

  • Use the func(http.Handler) http.Handler pattern for composability
  • Show middleware that works with both stdlib and popular routers
  • Cover request context for passing data between middleware
  • Include proper error handling and response writing
  • Explain middleware ordering and its importance
