// Writing a basic HTTP server is easy using the // `net/http` package. package main import ( "fmt" "net/http" ) // A fundamental concept in `net/http` servers is // *handlers*. A handler is an object implementing the // `http.Handler` interface. A common way to write // a handler is by using the `http.HandlerFunc` adapter // on functions with the appropriate signature. func hello(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) { // Functions serving as handlers take a // `http.ResponseWriter` and a `http.Request` as // arguments. The response writer is used to fill in the // HTTP response. Here our simple response is just // "hello\n". fmt.Fprintf(w, "hello\n") } func headers(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) { // This handler does something a little more // sophisticated by reading all the HTTP request // headers and echoing them into the response body. for name, headers := range req.Header { for _, h := range headers { fmt.Fprintf(w, "%v: %v\n", name, h) } } } func main() { // We register our handlers on server routes using the // `http.HandleFunc` convenience function. It sets up // the *default router* in the `net/http` package and // takes a function as an argument. http.HandleFunc("/hello", hello) http.HandleFunc("/headers", headers) // Finally, we call the `ListenAndServe` with the port // and a handler. `nil` tells it to use the default // router we've just set up. http.ListenAndServe(":8090", nil) }
