httpnoctx

Documentation

Overview

Package httpnoctx implements a Go analysis linter that flags HTTP calls that do not accept a context.Context: (*http.Client).Get, .Head, .Post, .PostForm and the package-level http.Get/Head/Post/PostForm shortcuts. It also flags http.NewRequest inside functions that already receive context.Context, and http.DefaultClient.Do which uses a timeout-less client. The fix is to build the request with http.NewRequestWithContext and use a client with a timeout so cancellation and deadline are propagated.
