My OwaspHeaders.Core middleware hit version 3.0.0.1 recently. The new version uses a new way to set it's configuration: the builder pattern. So I thought I'd write a little about how the builder pattern works and how it is used by ASP NET Core and my middleware.
I decided to take one of my open source projects (OwaspHeaders.Core - https://github.com/GaProgMan/OwaspHeaders.Core) and update the code a little. It had previously used a json for configuration, but after this stream it used the Builder Pattern
OwaspHeaders.Core is a collection of ASP.NET Core middleware classes designed to increase web application security by adopting the recommended OWASP settings.

In this post we'll take a previously built custom middleware and finalise the configuration options to it. We'll complete the JSON file which represents the config, and ensure that it's being read and the values are applied to the middleware setup.
In this post we'll take a previously built custom middleware and add configuration options to it. We'll load our config options for the middleware from a JSON file present in the consuming application, and apply it to the middleare
Building on the previous post on ASP.NET Core middleware, I'll show you how to make your own. We'll use OWASP secure header guidelines to create our own middleware which will add the recommended headers to all requests.
