An [express](https://www.npmjs.com/package/express) middleware that verifies HTTP requests sent to an Alexa skill are sent from Amazon.


### Usage

It is recommended that you attach all Alexa routes to an express Router.
```javascript
var express  = require('express')
var verifier = require('alexa-verifier-middleware')


var app = express()

// create a router and attach to express before doing anything else
var alexaRouter = express.Router()
app.use('/alexa', alexaRouter)

// attach the verifier middleware first because it needs the entire
// request body, and express doesn't expose this on the request object
alexaRouter.use(verifier)

// Routes that handle alexa traffic are now attached here.
// Since this is attached to a router mounted at /alexa,
// this endpoint will be accessible at /alexa/weather_info
alexaRouter.get('/weather_info', function(req, res) { ... })

app.listen(3000)
```
