Typed Middleware and Error Handlers

Write type-safe Express middleware functions.

Welcome

Type-safe Express middleware and error handlers prevent common bugs in request handling pipelines.

Middleware Signature

A middleware function takes req, res, next. Use the RequestHandler type from express.
import { RequestHandler } from 'express';
const authMiddleware: RequestHandler = (req, res, next) => {
  if (!req.headers.authorization) return res.status(401).json({});
  next();
};
