How to call check inside the middleware instead of passing as middleware

I already have middleware already, I don’t like to use check as middlewares to this, is there anyway to use check inside reqHandler ? Like how we used with Legacy API ?

const reqHandler = (req, res, next) => {
// do something
};

router.post('/createTask', reqHandler);

For a more intuitive solution regarding multiple checks, you could also attach your checks to a router and call that router inside your middleware/request handler.

Something like so:

const express   = require('express');
const validator = express.Router();

// Add the checks (could also be done in a separate file)
validator.use(check('email').isEmail());
validator.use(check('password').not().isEmpty());

const reqHandler = (req, res, next) => {
    validator(req, res, next);
}

I would think for one check something like this should work.

const reqHandler = (req, res, next) => {
    check('password').not().isEmpty()(req, res, next);
}
