I originally exposed Compile() for exactly this use case, but apparently
I never actually implemented this. Oops.
In any event, this makes the first request a little faster (an extremely
unscientific test suggests on the order of 10 microseconds). Also, if
something goes terribly wrong during route compilation, it would fail
before we start listening on the socket.
Instead of using struct embedding to build web.Mux, start moving towards
explicit mappings. This doesn't actually change the public API of
web.Mux, but feels a little cleaner to me.
The longer-term thing here is to get rid of the functions defined on
Muxes in the public documentation that are defined on "rt *Mux", which
is just plain ugly.
This is meant to accomplish a few things:
1. graceful no longer spawns an additional goroutine per connection.
Instead, it maintains a sharded set of idle connections that a single
reaper goroutine can go through when necessary.
2. graceful's connection struct has a more orthogonal set of connection
state flags, replacing the harder-to-understand state machine. The
underlying mechanics are largely the same, however.
3. graceful now uses the Go 1.3 ConnState API to avoid the "200-year
SetReadDeadline hack." It still falls back on SetReadDeadline on Go
1.2 or where ConnState does not apply.
This feature can be used in place of the pile of hacks in middleware.go,
and doesn't involve awkwardly shimming out a http.ResponseWriter. Sounds
like a win-win!
It turns out WriterProxy is pretty generally useful, especially when
defining custom http loggers. Expose it in a util package so that other
packages can use it.
If you're manipulating your middleware stack concurrently with active
requests you're probably doing something wrong, and it's not worth
either the complexity or runtime cost to support you hitting yourself.
We can probably take this principle a bit further and disallow mutating
the middleware stack after any requests have been made (which will
eliminate even more complexity) but that can be a project for another
day.
App Engine disallows package unsafe. As a workaround for the (unsafe)
RCU atomic pointer shenanigans we pull in order to avoid taking a lock
in the hot routing path, let's just grab the lock. Honestly, I doubt
anyone will notice anyways, especially considering the fact that App
Engine is single-threaded anyways.
Fixes#52.
Previously, a state machine invalidation could have raced against an
in-flight routing attempt: if the invalidation occured after the routing
attempt had already completed its nil-check (choosing not to compile a
new state machine) but before the state machine was atomically loaded to
perform routing, the routing goroutine would begin to panic from
dereferencing nil.
The meat of this change is that we now return the state machine that we
compiled (while still holding the lock), and we only ever interact with
the state machine through atomic pointer loads.
Expose an additional function, bind.WithFlag(), which allows callers to
use the previously-default "global flag" mode.
This change allows the bind string parser (etc.) to be used without
unwanted side effects. The behavior of the top-level "goji" package has
not been changed.
Fixes#47.
Previously, a set of standard signals would be handled automatically via
an init() function, however that made the package difficult to use in
packages in which an HTTP server would only be spawned some of the times
(perhaps keyed on an environment variable or flag). Now, signals must be
registered manually.
By default, the top-level "goji" package automatically registers
signals with graceful, so this will result in no behavior changes for
most people.
Fixes#35.
Many common panic values, e.g. nil pointer dereferences, don't print
very well under "%#v", emitting something like
"runtime.errorCString{cstr:0x54b2a4}" or similar.
If WriteHeader is called multiple times on a http.ResponseWriter, the
first status is the one that is used, not the last. Fix the wrapped
writer to reflect this fact.
For whatever reason, Go insisted on loading rm.sm[i] in several chunks,
even though it could be loaded in a single 64-bit block. Instead, let's
reorder our loads to minimize the amount of memory we're uselessly
moving around.
This gives us about a 15% perf boost in
github.com/julienschmidt/go-http-routing-benchmark's
BenchmarkGoji_StaticAll, and questionable benefits (i.e., not
distinguishable from noise but certainly no worse) on Goji's own
benchmarks.
