        req.google = r;
        next();

## API

### expressGenerators(express)

Returns patched Express constructor with patched `Router` class.

Following methods are wrapped to support generators:

- `app.get`, `app.post` and [other methods](https://github.com/jshttp/methods/blob/master/index.js#L42-L67) from [`methods`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/methods) package
- `app.use`
- `app.param`
- `app.route`
- `app.all`
- `app.del`

## Notes

Rather than using the `next()` method, `express-generators` detects if you have written to the response.
