README
MyHttp
Easy to use API to make timeout supported http GET requests in Go.
MyHttp is for coders who don't want to write timeout support logic and don't want to deal with heavy APIs, just to make http GET request in Go.
It's battle-tested in production and has tests which even verifies connection leaking issues.
I'd been dealing with this issue myself, I read many documents, and saw that there are no simple and lightweight APIs to do http GET request with timeout logic. So, I created MyHttp in one of my projects and wanted to move it here.
Installation
go get github.com/inancgumus/myhttp
Documentation
See MyHttp GoDoc for the documentation.
Usage example
Get
Get simply gets the url and returns an http.Response.
import (
"time"
"github.com/inancgumus/myhttp"
)
mh := myhttp.New(time.Second * 10) // timeout after 10 seconds
res, err := mh.Get("http://www.domain.com/foo")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// use res here...
WrapGet
WrapGet accepts a function in its second argument and runs it after getting the http.Response from the url and automatically closes the http.Response.Body, in case you may forget to close it.
import (
"time"
"github.com/inancgumus/myhttp"
)
mh := myhttp.New(time.Second * 10) // timeout after 10 seconds
err := mh.WrapGet("http://www.domain.com/foo", func(r *http.Response) error {
// use res here...
// MyHttp will automatically close http.Response.Body for you after this func ends.
})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
