Making Middleware Manageable

This is a repository of companion code examples for the Golang Dorset lightning talk on HTTP middleware.

Summary

The repository is comprised of 4 parts:

1. Part One - A simple HTTP server with an API whose /hello endpoint returns a friendly message.
2. Part Two - Extending the HTTP server with a middleware to secure /hello with an API key.
3. Part Three - Further extending the HTTP server with another middleware to add request logging.
4. Part Four - Tidying up the middleware implementation by chaining.
