Error composing koa async function middleware


I am using koa-compose to put together middleware as suggested in the guide. I import koa-compose as kompose.

I have the following code:

const home = async function home (ctx,next) {
  if(ctx.path === '/') {
    ctx.body = 'Hello World!'
  } else {
    await next()
  }
}

const random = async function random (ctx,next) {
  console.log(ctx)
  if(ctx.path === '/random') {
    console.log('Inside random function')
    ctx.body = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10)
  } else {
    await next()
  }
}

const backwards = async function backwards (ctx,next) {
  if(ctx.path === '/backwards') {
    ctx.body = 'sdrawkcab'
  } else {
    await next()
  }
}

const pi = async function pi (ctx,next) {
  if(ctx.path === '/pi') {
    ctx.body = String(Math.PI)
  } else {
    await next()
  }
}

const body2 = kompose([random,backwards,pi,home])

I use it as the last middleware in the chain:

app.use(responseTime())
app.use(logger())
app.use(body2)
app.listen(3000)

I get this error:

The full code is on github. You can replace body() with body2 in the code there.

UPDATE:

After doing a bit of additional logging, it says:

 TypeError: next is not a function

Solution

  • You are using a generator-based koa-compose for Koa 2, that won't work. You need koa-compose@3.x install it with:

    npm install -S koa-compose@next
