Middleware

Middleware

Middleware provide a convenient mechanism for filtering something with your application.

Create a middleware

You can create a middleware class under your app folder, such as app/middlewares/BeforeController.php.

namespace app\middlewares;

use Kotori\Http\Request;
use Kotori\Http\Response;

class BeforeController
{
    public function handle(Request $request, Response $response)
    {
        // do something
    }
}

Then Kotori.php will execute the handle function before controller class is initialized.

Don't forget to configure in the config array.

$config['middleware'] = [
    'before_controller' => [
        '\\app\\middlewares\\BeforeController',
    ],
];

Available hook names:

name
before_app
after_app
before_route
after_route
before_controller
after_controller
before_action
after_action
