Something like an application environment that changes during execution?
Hello,
My application is serving HTTP requests with Plug. I generate for each request an identifier. I would like all of my modules to use this identifier, for instance in the logs messages.
So in an imperative world, it would look like a global variable that would be updated for each request. How would you do this in Elixir ?

That’s what logger metadata is for. But also Plug.RequestId does already do that. Any reason not to use that one?
