To create and register HTTP middleware in a go-zero project, use a template to generate the middleware under internal/middleware/, then wire it into the ServiceContext or attach it to specific routes via the .api definition file.

The best way to attach route-specific middleware in go-zero is by defining the middleware directly within your .api file configuration, ensuring the generated code applies the middleware only to designated routes.

Yes, you can apply global middleware across all routes in a go-zero API service by wiring the middleware component directly into the ServiceContext setup during server initialization in main.go.

Yes, go-zero supports template-based code generation for middleware. This approach enforces consistent middleware patterns and reduces boilerplate when instantiating reusable components like logging or authentication layers.

To wire a custom authentication middleware into a go-zero ServiceContext, instantiate the middleware component and register it within the service_context.go file, making it available for dependency injection across your API routes.
