Is there a way to append user_id as request header after jwtware?

[mareimorsy]

I'm using jwtware to validate user jwt, but I'd like to extract the user_id from the jwt payload and append it to the request header, I could implement my own middleware I just wanna ask is there already a feature like this?

Thanks in advance <3

I figured out this :

user_id := c.Locals("user").(*jwt.Token).Claims.(jwt.MapClaims)["id"]

by casting the empty interface returned from locals to MapClaims then getting the id from the map, please advice if you have a better approach

That should be ok.
