How do I implement authorization in my routing library?

To implement authorization, you can create middleware that checks user permissions before allowing access to certain routes.

What kind of permissions should I consider?

Consider permissions like 'read', 'write', and 'admin' access, depending on the resources your application manages.

Can you give me an example of middleware for this?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

function authorize(permissions) {
  return function(req, res, next) {
    if (req.user && req.user.permissions.includes(permissions)) {
      next();
    } else {
      res.status(403).send('Forbidden');
    }
  };
}
