UUID Middleware

The UUID Middleware creates a UUID to uniquely identify requests and adds it to the request and response headers.

Usage

from pykour import Pykour
from pykour.middleware import uuid_middleware

app = Pykour()
app.add_middleware(uuid_middleware())

@app.get('/')
def index():
    return { 'message': 'Hello, World!' }

By default, the UUID Generation Middleware uses the x-request-id header.

Using a Custom Header

If you want to use a header other than x-request-id, you can specify the header name using the header_name argument.

from pykour import Pykour
from pykour.middleware import uuid_middleware

app = Pykour()
app.add_middleware(uuid_middleware("X-TEST-ID"))

@app.get('/')
def index():
    return { 'message': 'Hello, World!' }
