Middleware is a fundamental module that provides the default middleware forbuffalo applications.

The default middleware is setup by default on a new Buffalo app.

$buffalo new myapp

Buffalo CLI will generate application scafflod andactions/app.go will beconfigured to use default middlewares by default.

$go get github.com/gobuffalo/middleware

contenttype middleware provides a feature that sets the fallback content type(which is used when the client sent nothing) or overrides the client-specifiedcontent type.This middleware will be enabled by default in your app when you generate a newAPI application withbuffalo new --api command.

csrf middleware providesCSRFprotection for Buffalo apps.This middleware will be enabled by default in your app when you generate a newapplication scaffold withbuffalo new command.

forcessl middleware provides a feature that automatically redirects requeststhat is not use HTTPS.This middleware will be enabled by default in your app when you generate a newapplication scaffold withbuffalo new command.It is configured to enforce the redirection in theproduction mode only. Youcould customize it inactions/app.go if you need a different behavior.

i18n middleware provides internationalization support in your application:

• User language detection from configurable sources
• Translation helper using locales bundles from github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n
• Localized views

Seehttps://gobuffalo.io/documentation/guides/localization/ for furtherinformation about Buffalo translation features and configuration.

paramlogger middleware provides the request parameter logging feature.This middleware will be enabled by default in your app when you generate a newapplication scaffold withbuffalo new command.

By default, it filters out pre-defined sensitive parameters and they will beprinted as[FILTERED] in the log. (keywords are case insensitive)

Currently, the pre-defined parameters are:

• password
• passwordconfirmation
• creditcard
• cvc

paramlogger also allows to exclude user-defined parameters by specifyingthose in theParameterExclusionList before using the ParamegerLoggermiddleware in the app.

paramlogger.ParameterExclusionList=append(paramlogger.ParameterExclusionList,"secret","phone_number")app.Use(paramlogger.ParameterLogger)

or

paramlogger.ParameterExclusionList= []string{"password","passwordconfirmation","secret","phone_number",    }app.Use(paramlogger.ParameterLogger)
