Thank you for the variety of approaches. I really appreciate it.

I'll probably try to start with a global, and eventually move to use the lambda or partial function approach, passing in a struct of things. A lot of my routes break from REST

Oh - or attaching m_db to req would be nice.

There is a params field in HTTPServerRequest that is meant for attaching data to the request, but it currently only supports string. There was a plan to support a Variant instead, just the transition path wasn't clear at the time. Maybe we should revive that.

IMO, that would be ideal, allowing flexibility without the need to work around the framework or using globals.

Thanks again
