Is there a type in @types/express for Express middleware functions

Right now I have this in a custom .d.ts file:

import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
export type MiddleWareFn = (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => void;

and I reference that file like so:

router.use('/foo', <MiddleWareFn> function(req,res,next){});

however I am wondering if Express has typings for middleware functions already?

Solution

  • Here is how I'm handling it:

    import type { RequestHandler } from "express";

export const myMiddleware: RequestHandler = (req, res, next) => {
  // HANDLE REQUEST
  // RESPOND OR CALL NEXT()
};
