Adding to context via middleware

[RichiCoder1]

Howdy! I'd like to add support to hono for https://github.com/RichiCoder1/opentelemetry-sdk-workers. As part of that, I'd like to make some context variables available like log and trace.

It looks like the current shape of hono is fixed so I'd have to make a new type. Is there plans to allow middleware to extend context in the future?

Hi @RichiCoder1 !

That's very good to make the middleware for "Open Telemetry". We are planning that other developers can make third-party middleware in "honojs org" in such a "github.com/honojs/open-telemetry" and provide named "@honojs/open-telemetry" from npm repository. #407 If you want please do that.

Is there plans to allow middleware to extend context in the future?

I was just thinking about that one! But, I don't have a good idea to implement it. We'll think about it in another issue (If you want, please join the discussion!).

That feature may be implemented, so wait until then!
