Handling your Go servers with grace.
Under the hood this relies directly on
http.Server'sShutdown()method but provides it in a boilerplate free way.
Install the package
go get github.com/ojizero/gracefully
Replace your application's startup point with the following
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/ojizero/gracefully"
)
func main() {
var h http.Handler // ... build your http handler
var addr string // set the address to listen to
gracefully.ServeHandler(h, addr)
}And in case you have an http.Server instance you can use
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/ojizero/gracefully"
)
func main() {
var srv http.Server // ... build your http server
gracefully.Serve(srv)
}
