I saw sample code on express website:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
// simple logger
app.use(function(req, res, next){
console.log('%s %s', req.method, req.url);
next();
});
// respond
app.use(function(req, res, next){
res.send('Hello World');
});
app.listen(3000);
Here app.use() called functions of exactly the same signature and yet is able to run them in sequence. How is this done in javascript?
Here's definition for app.use(): https://github.com/senchalabs/connect/blob/master/lib/proto.js
Connect keeps a "stack" (an Array) of middleware and route handlers. And when a request is processed, it simply iterates through all handler functions in the stack in order and (subject to some route matching rules), invokes the handler functions.
this.stack.push({ route: route, handle: fn });
