Overview ¶
Package gopher provides an implementation of the Gopher protocol (RFC 1436)
Much of the API is similar in design to the net/http package of the standard library. To build custom Gopher servers implement handler functions or the `Handler{}` interface. Implementing a client is as simple as calling `gopher.Get(uri)` and passing in a `uri` such as `"gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/"`.
Example (Client) ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "log" "within.website/gopher" ) func main() { res, err := gopher.Get("gopher://gopher.floodgap.com") if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } fmt.Print(res.Dir.ToText()) }
Output:
Example (Fileserver) ¶
package main import ( "log" "within.website/gopher" ) func main() { gopher.Handle("/", gopher.FileServer(gopher.Dir("/tmp"))) log.Fatal(gopher.ListenAndServe("localhost:7000", nil)) }
Output:
Example (Server) ¶
package main import ( "log" "within.website/gopher" ) func hello(w gopher.ResponseWriter, r *gopher.Request) { w.WriteInfo("Hello World!") } func main() { gopher.HandleFunc("/hello", hello) log.Fatal(gopher.ListenAndServe("localhost:7000", nil)) }

Functions ¶
func Error ¶
func Error(w ResponseWriter, error string)
Error replies to the request with the specified error message. It does not otherwise end the request; the caller should ensure no further writes are done to w. The error message should be plain text.
func Handle ¶
Handle registers the handler for the given pattern in the DefaultServeMux. The documentation for ServeMux explains how patterns are matched.
func HandleFunc ¶
func HandleFunc(pattern string, handler func(ResponseWriter, *Request))
HandleFunc registers the handler function for the given pattern in the DefaultServeMux. The documentation for ServeMux explains how patterns are matched.
func ListenAndServe ¶
ListenAndServe listens on the TCP network address addr and then calls Serve with handler to handle requests on incoming connections.
A trivial example server is:
package main import ( "io" "log" "within.website/gopher" ) // hello world, the gopher server func HelloServer(w gopher.ResponseWriter, req *gopher.Request) { w.WriteInfo("hello, world!") } func main() { gopher.HandleFunc("/hello", HelloServer) log.Fatal(gopher.ListenAndServe(":7000", nil)) }
ListenAndServe always returns a non-nil error.
func ListenAndServeTLS ¶
ListenAndServeTLS acts identically to ListenAndServe, except that it expects TLS connections. Additionally, files containing a certificate and matching private key for the server must be provided. If the certificate is signed by a certificate authority, the certFile should be the concatenation of the server's certificate, any intermediates, and the CA's certificate.
A trivial example server is:
import ( "log" "github.com/prologic/go-gopher", ) func HelloServer(w gopher.ResponseWriter, req *gopher.Request) { w.WriteInfo("hello, world!") } func main() { gopher.HandleFunc("/", handler) log.Printf("About to listen on 73. Go to gophers://127.0.0.1:73/") err := gopher.ListenAndServeTLS(":73", "cert.pem", "key.pem", nil) log.Fatal(err) }
One can use generate_cert.go in crypto/tls to generate cert.pem and key.pem.
ListenAndServeTLS always returns a non-nil error.
func NotFound ¶
func NotFound(w ResponseWriter, r *Request)
NotFound replies to the request with an resouce not found error item.
Types ¶
type Dir ¶
type Dir string
A Dir implements FileSystem using the native file system restricted to a specific directory tree.
While the FileSystem.Open method takes '/'-separated paths, a Dir's string value is a filename on the native file system, not a URL, so it is separated by filepath.Separator, which isn't necessarily '/'.
An empty Dir is treated as ".".
type Directory ¶
type Directory struct {
Items []Item `json:"items"`
}
Directory representes a Gopher Menu of Items
type File ¶
type File interface { io.Closer io.Reader io.Seeker Readdir(count int) ([]os.FileInfo, error) Stat() (os.FileInfo, error) }
A File is returned by a FileSystem's Open method and can be served by the FileServer implementation.
The methods should behave the same as those on an *os.File.
type FileSystem ¶
A FileSystem implements access to a collection of named files. The elements in a file path are separated by slash ('/', U+002F) characters, regardless of host operating system convention.
type Handler ¶
type Handler interface {
ServeGopher(ResponseWriter, *Request)
}
A Handler responds to a Gopher request.
ServeGopher should write data or items to the ResponseWriter and then return. Returning signals that the request is finished; it is not valid to use the ResponseWriter concurrently with the completion of the ServeGopher call.
Handlers should not modify the provided request.
If ServeGopher panics, the server (the caller of ServeGopher) assumes that the effect of the panic was isolated to the active request. It recovers the panic, logs a stack trace to the server error log, and hangs up the connection.
func FileServer ¶
func FileServer(root FileSystem) Handler
FileServer returns a handler that serves Gopher requests with the contents of the file system rooted at root.
To use the operating system's file system implementation, use gopher.Dir:
gopher.Handle("/", gopher.FileServer(gopher.Dir("/tmp")))
func NotFoundHandler ¶
func NotFoundHandler() Handler
NotFoundHandler returns a simple request handler that replies to each request with a “resource page not found” reply.
type HandlerFunc ¶
type HandlerFunc func(ResponseWriter, *Request)
The HandlerFunc type is an adapter to allow the use of ordinary functions as Gopher handlers. If f is a function with the appropriate signature, HandlerFunc(f) is a Handler that calls f.
func (HandlerFunc) ServeGopher ¶
func (f HandlerFunc) ServeGopher(w ResponseWriter, r *Request)
ServeGopher calls f(w, r).
type Item ¶
type Item struct { Type ItemType `json:"type"` Description string `json:"description"` Selector string `json:"selector"` Host string `json:"host"` Port int `json:"port"` // non-standard extensions (ignored by standard clients) Extras []string `json:"extras"` }
Item describes an entry in a directory listing.
func (*Item) FetchDirectory ¶
FetchDirectory fetches directory information, not data. Calling this on an Item whose type is not DIRECTORY will return an error.
func (*Item) FetchFile ¶
FetchFile fetches data, not directory information. Calling this on a DIRECTORY Item type or unsupported type will return an error.
func (Item) MarshalJSON ¶
MarshalJSON serializes an Item into a JSON structure
func (Item) MarshalText ¶
MarshalText serializes an Item into an array of bytes
type ItemType ¶
type ItemType byte
ItemType represents the type of an item
func GetItemType ¶
GetItemType returns the Gopher Type of the given path
type Request ¶
type Request struct { Selector string LocalHost string LocalPort int // contains filtered or unexported fields }
Request repsesnts an inbound request to a listening server. LocalHost and LocalPort may be used by the Handler for local links. These are specified in the call to ListenAndServe.
type Response ¶
Response represents a Gopher resource that Items contains a non-empty array of Item(s) for directory types, otherwise the Body contains the fetched resource (file, image, etc).
type ResponseWriter ¶
type ResponseWriter interface { // Server returns the connection's server instance Server() *Server // End ends the document by writing the terminating period and crlf End() error // Write writes the data to the connection as part of a Gopher reply. // Write([]byte) (int, error) // WriteError writes an error item WriteError(err string) error // WriteInfo writes an informational item WriteInfo(msg string) error // WriteItem writes an item WriteItem(i Item) error }
A ResponseWriter interface is used by a Gopher handler to construct an Gopher response.
A ResponseWriter may not be used after the Handler.ServeGopher method has returned.
type ServeMux ¶
type ServeMux struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
ServeMux is a Gopher request multiplexer. It matches the URL of each incoming request against a list of registered patterns and calls the handler for the pattern that most closely matches the URL.
Patterns name fixed, rooted paths, like "/favicon.ico", or rooted subtrees, like "/images/" (note the trailing slash). Longer patterns take precedence over shorter ones, so that if there are handlers registered for both "/images/" and "/images/thumbnails/", the latter handler will be called for paths beginning "/images/thumbnails/" and the former will receive requests for any other paths in the "/images/" subtree.
Note that since a pattern ending in a slash names a rooted subtree, the pattern "/" matches all paths not matched by other registered patterns, not just the URL with Path == "/".
If a subtree has been registered and a request is received naming the subtree root without its trailing slash, ServeMux redirects that request to the subtree root (adding the trailing slash). This behavior can be overridden with a separate registration for the path without the trailing slash. For example, registering "/images/" causes ServeMux to redirect a request for "/images" to "/images/", unless "/images" has been registered separately.
ServeMux also takes care of sanitizing the URL request path, redirecting any request containing . or .. elements or repeated slashes to an equivalent, cleaner URL.
func (*ServeMux) Handle ¶
Handle registers the handler for the given pattern. If a handler already exists for pattern, Handle panics.
func (*ServeMux) HandleFunc ¶
func (mux *ServeMux) HandleFunc(pattern string, handler func(ResponseWriter, *Request))
HandleFunc registers the handler function for the given pattern.
func (*ServeMux) Handler ¶
Handler returns the handler to use for the given request, consulting r.Selector. It always returns a non-nil handler.
Handler also returns the registered pattern that matches the request.
If there is no registered handler that applies to the request, Handler returns a “resource not found” handler and an empty pattern.
func (*ServeMux) ServeGopher ¶
func (mux *ServeMux) ServeGopher(w ResponseWriter, r *Request)
ServeGopher dispatches the request to the handler whose pattern most closely matches the request URL.
type Server ¶
type Server struct { Addr string // TCP address to listen on, ":gopher" if empty Handler Handler // handler to invoke, gopher.DefaultServeMux if nil Hostname string // FQDN Hostname to reach this server on }
Server defines parameters for running a Gopher server. A zero value for Server is valid configuration.
func (*Server) ListenAndServe ¶
ListenAndServe starts serving gopher requests using the given Handler. The address passed to ListenAndServe should be an internet-accessable domain name, optionally followed by a colon and the port number.
If the address is not a FQDN, LocalHost as passed to the Handler may not be accessible to clients, so links may not work.
func (*Server) ListenAndServeTLS ¶
ListenAndServeTLS listens on the TCP network address srv.Addr and then calls Serve to handle requests on incoming TLS connections. Accepted connections are configured to enable TCP keep-alives.
Filenames containing a certificate and matching private key for the server must be provided if neither the Server's TLSConfig.Certificates nor TLSConfig.GetCertificate are populated. If the certificate is signed by a certificate authority, the certFile should be the concatenation of the server's certificate, any intermediates, and the CA's certificate.
If srv.Addr is blank, ":gophers" is used (port 73).
ListenAndServeTLS always returns a non-nil error.
