Middleware are instances of the Keywork#Router.RequestRouter | RequestRouter, each with single responsibility e.g. (users, blog posts, payments, authentication, etc.)

import { UsersRouter } from '@local/worker/routers/UsersRouter'
import { BlogRouter } from '@local/worker/routers/BlogRouter'
import { AuthenticationRouter } from '@local/worker/routers/AuthenticationRouter'
import { CloudflarePagesAssetRouter } from 'keywork/assets'
import { RequestRouter } from 'keywork/router'

// Create a router to receive all incoming requests...
const app = new RequestRouter({
  // Here we combine our routers...
  // highlight-start
  middleware: [
    AuthenticationRouter,
    UsersRouter,
    BlogRouter,
    // And serve static assets...
    new CloudflarePagesAssetRouter(),
  ],
  // highlight-end
})

Middleware routers can perform any task that of single router such as...

• Executing any code
• Make changes to the request and the response of another router
• Terminate a request
• Intercept a request to check for authentication
• Call the next route handler in the stack
