Closure Handler Middleware
==========================

[](#closure-handler-middleware)

PSR-15 compatible HTTP middleware which can utilize closure type request handlers.

If you don't want to bother about those ugly HTTP controllers and love simplicity, this middleware is your best friend.

[![phpunit workflow](https://github.com/kovagoz/http-middleware-closure-handler/actions/workflows/php.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/kovagoz/http-middleware-closure-handler/actions/workflows/php.yml/badge.svg)

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP >=8.0

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$request = $serverRequestFactory
    ->createServerRequest('GET', '/')
    ->withAttribute('__handler', fn() => 'hello world!');

$middleware = new ClosureHandler($responseFactory, $streamFactory);

$response = $middleware->process($request, $nextHandler);

echo $response->getBody(); // Will print "hello world!"
```

If no handler found in the request object, or handler is not closure, then the middleware passes the request to the next middleware in the row.

Name of the request attribute (`__handler`) can be changed by the `watchRequestAttribute()` method.
