See also the [middleware guide](https://actix.rs/docs/middleware). ## Usage ```sh cd middleware/request-extensions cargo run ``` Look in `src/add_msg.rs` to see how it works. ## Routes - [GET /on](http://localhost:8080/on) - `200 OK` with "hello from middleware" body and console log showing the request passed through the middleware - [GET /off](http://localhost:8080/off) - `500 Internal Server Error` with "no message found" body and console log showing the request passed through the middleware
