It still works, but in case of an async function, you don't need to do that. If you want to pass an error, just throw a normal exception: ```js app.use(async (req, res) => { const user = await User.findByToken(req.get('authorization')); if (!user) throw Error("access denied"); }); app.use((err, req, res, next) => { if (err.message === 'access denied') { res.status(403); res.json({ error: err.message }); } next(err); }); ``` ## How Does This Work? This is a very minimalistic and unintrusive hack. Instead of patching all methods on an express `Router`, it wraps the `Layer#handle` property in one place, leaving all the rest of the express guts intact. The idea is that you require the patch once and then use the `'express'` lib the usual way in the rest of your application. ## License All code in this repository is released under the terms of the ISC license.
