How to pass data from mediator to controller?

Question

Laravel

I thought that I could exclude additional checks from the controller by doing it all in midddleware. That is, it is necessary to transfer a variable from the intermediary to the controller, depending on the value of which certain actions will be performed. Question: how can I pass a variable from an intermediary to a controller?

Answer 1

In controller constructor

$this->middleware(function ($request, $next) {
    // $this->variable = 10;

    return $next($request);
});

Answer 2

Add value to container and then push it through DI or service location?
