Implement middleware functions in an Express.

js application to log incoming requests and handle


errors gracefully

const express = require('express');


const app = express();
const port = 3000;

// **Logging Middleware**
[Link]((req, res, next) => {
const currentTime = new Date().toISOString();
[Link](`[${currentTime}] ${[Link]} request to ${[Link]}`);
next(); // Pass control to the next middleware or route handler
});

// **Sample Route**
[Link]('/', (req, res) => {
[Link]('Hello, World!');
});

// Route that intentionally throws an error


[Link]('/error', (req, res) => {
throw new Error('This is a forced error!'); // Triggering an error
});

// **Error Handling Middleware**


[Link]((err, req, res, next) => {
[Link]([Link]); // Log the error stack for debugging
[Link](500).send('Something went wrong!'); // Send a generic error
response
});

// Start the server


[Link](port, () => {
[Link](`Server is running on [Link]
});
