Add dependancy injection for handlers about express-zod-api HOT 6 CLOSED

@Isaac-Leonard , for me this method looks redundant, since you're connecting this db dependency in the same place where your handler is implemented, so you can use it directly within handler without passing it through the factory.

In case this entity somehow depends on incoming data or available for limited users, the existing method .addMiddleware() is designed for passing the desired entity to the options parameter of the handler.

Perhaps I'm missing something. Please let me know if these two solutions are not suitable for your case (with some more details). Thank you!

Actually yeah you're right, I really should read the full documentation first before trying to add features.bThe only differences I would maybe make is to add the properties on options directly to the argument passed to handler instead of as a options property but really that doesn't make much of a difference and not requiring the createMiddleware boilerplate..

Actually no
Looking at it more there is currently no typing on the options object.
Thats what My solution would add.
I've pushed my changes on my fork if you would like to look although they are a bit messy, its got tests demonstrating its typesafeness.
Currently it requires a breaking change as typescript can't infer types without it.
It currently allows for anything to be added to a dependancies object that gets passed to the final handler but only static data for now, making it dynamic such as creating individual db connections or authenticating users with a type safe user object being added to the result however should be doable.
The current options object is just typed as any.

I'd recommend to check the type of your middleware's output and how you connect this middleware.

Usually it works this way (in a project, that utilizes express-zod-api):

and not requiring the createMiddleware boilerplate..

I agree, that in some cases, especially for empty inputs, there may be some sort of shorthand for providing Endpoints with options easier. Need to think on it a little bit...

@Isaac-Leonard , please check out PR #234.
Does it fulfill your needs?
