README
A QUIC implementation in pure Go
quic-go is an implementation of the QUIC protocol in Go. It roughly implements the IETF QUIC draft, although we don't fully support any of the draft versions at the moment.
Version compatibility
Since quic-go is under active development, there's no guarantee that two builds of different commits are interoperable. The QUIC version used in the master branch is just a placeholder, and should not be considered stable.
If you want to use quic-go as a library in other projects, please consider using a tagged release. These releases expose experimental QUIC versions, which are guaranteed to be stable.
Guides
We currently support Go 1.13+, with Go modules support enabled.
Running tests:
go test ./...
QUIC without HTTP/3
Take a look at [this echo example](example/echo/echo.go).
Usage
As a server
See the [example server](example/main.go). Starting a QUIC server is very similar to the standard lib http in go:
http.Handle("/", http.FileServer(http.Dir(wwwDir)))
http3.ListenAndServeQUIC("localhost:4242", "/path/to/cert/chain.pem", "/path/to/privkey.pem", nil)
As a client
See the [example client](example/client/main.go). Use a http3.RoundTripper as a Transport in a http.Client.
http.Client{
Transport: &http3.RoundTripper{},
}
