Documentation

To create a http.Client:

package main

import (
	"time"

	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient"
	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient/transport"
)

var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create()

// equivalent to:
var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(transport.NewBaseTransport()), // base http transport (optimized)
	httpclient.WithTimeout(30*time.Second),                 // 30 seconds timeout
	httpclient.WithCheckRedirect(nil),                      // default redirection checks
	httpclient.WithCookieJar(nil),                          // default cookie jar
)

Requests

This module provide some request helpers to ease client requests headers propagation from an incoming request:

• CopyObservabilityRequestHeaders to copy x-request-id and traceparent headers
• CopyRequestHeaders to choose a list of headers to copy

For example:

package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient"
)

func exampleHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// create http client
	client, _ := httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create()

	// build a request to send with the client
	rc, _ := http.NewRequest(http.MethodGet, "https://example.com", nil)

	// propagate observability headers: x-request-id and traceparent
	httpclient.CopyObservabilityRequestHeaders(r, rc)

	// client call
	resp, _ := client.Do(rc)

	// propagate response code
	w.WriteHeader(resp.StatusCode)
}

func main() {
	http.HandleFunc("/", exampleHandler)
	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

Transports

BaseTransport

This module provide a BaseTransport, optimized regarding max connections handling.

To use it:

package main

import (
	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient"
	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient/transport"
)

var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(transport.NewBaseTransport()),
)

// equivalent to:
var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(
		transport.NewBaseTransportWithConfig(&transport.BaseTransportConfig{
			MaxIdleConnections:        100,
			MaxConnectionsPerHost:     100,
			MaxIdleConnectionsPerHost: 100,
		}),
	),
)

LoggerTransport

This module provide a LoggerTransport, able to decorate any http.RoundTripper to add logging:

• with requests and response details (and optionally body)
• with configurable log level for each

To use it:

package main

import (
	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient"
	"github.com/ankorstore/yokai/httpclient/transport"
	"github.com/rs/zerolog"
)

var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(transport.NewLoggerTransport(nil)),
)

// equivalent to:
var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(
		transport.NewLoggerTransportWithConfig(
			transport.NewBaseTransport(),
			&transport.LoggerTransportConfig{
				LogRequest:                       false,             // to log request details
				LogResponse:                      false,             // to log response details
				LogRequestBody:                   false,             // to log request body (if request details logging enabled)
				LogResponseBody:                  false,             // to log response body (if response details logging enabled)
				LogRequestLevel:                  zerolog.InfoLevel, // log level for request log
				LogResponseLevel:                 zerolog.InfoLevel, // log level for response log
				LogResponseLevelFromResponseCode: false,             // to use response code for response log level
			},
		),
	),
)

Note: if no transport is provided for decoration in transport.NewLoggerTransport(nil), the BaseTransport will be used as base transport.

Functions

func CopyObservabilityRequestHeaders

func CopyObservabilityRequestHeaders(source *http.Request, dest *http.Request)

CopyObservabilityRequestHeaders performs a copy of x-request-id and traceparent headers between two http.Request.

func CopyRequestHeaders

func CopyRequestHeaders(source *http.Request, dest *http.Request, headers ...string)

CopyRequestHeaders performs a copy of a specified list of headers between two http.Request.

Types

type DefaultHttpClientFactory

type DefaultHttpClientFactory struct{}

DefaultHttpClientFactory is the default HttpClientFactory implementation.

func (*DefaultHttpClientFactory) Create

func (f *DefaultHttpClientFactory) Create(options ...HttpClientOption) (*http.Client, error)

Create returns a new http.Client, and accepts a list of HttpClientOption. For example:

var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create()

// equivalent to:
var client, _ = httpclient.NewDefaultHttpClientFactory().Create(
	httpclient.WithTransport(transport.NewBaseTransport()), // base http transport (optimized)
	httpclient.WithTimeout(30*time.Second),                 // 30 seconds timeout
	httpclient.WithCheckRedirect(nil),                      // default redirection checks
	httpclient.WithCookieJar(nil),                          // default cookie jar
)

type HttpClientFactory

type HttpClientFactory interface {
	Create(opts ...HttpClientOption) (*http.Client, error)

NewDefaultHttpClientFactory returns a DefaultHttpClientFactory, implementing HttpClientFactory.

type HttpClientOption

type HttpClientOption func(o *Options)

HttpClientOption are functional options for the HttpClientFactory implementations.
