I have an HTTP client with a custom RoundTripper
which in turn uses the http.DefaultTransport
to handle the request. Now imagine I have a slow server which takes a long time to respond and it makes my http client timeout and cancel the client. Here is the code for the client:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"net/http"
"time"
)
type rt struct {
roundTripper func(req *http.Request) (*http.Response, error)
}
func (r rt) RoundTrip(req *http.Request) (*http.Response, error) {
return r.roundTripper(req)
}
func main() {
c := http.Client{
Timeout: 3 * time.Second,
Transport: rt{RoundTripper(http.DefaultTransport)},
}
resp, err := c.Get("http://127.0.0.1:9000")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("err:", err)
} else {
body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
resp.Body.Close()
fmt.Println(string(body), err)
}
}
func RoundTripper(next http.RoundTripper) func(req *http.Request) (*http.Response, error) {
return func(req *http.Request) (*http.Response, error) {
resp, err := next.RoundTrip(req)
if err != nil {
return nil, fmt.Errorf("err: %w", err)
}
return resp, nil
}
}
The problem here is that the error I'm receiving on timeout is randomly one of net/http: request canceled
or context deadline exceeded
.
Now I know they should be semantically the same thing but I'm failing to understand why it's returning each and when?
Here is the server code if you want to try it for yourself.
The function net/http/client.setRequestCancel() is used to set the cancel of the request. There are three ways
Because both use the same deadline, time.now()+client.Timeout . So according to the runtime schedule, the request will be cancelled randomly through these two methods.
https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/http/transport.go#L2652
case <-cancelChan:
// return err: net/http: request
pc.t.CancelRequest(req.Request) canceled
cancelChan = nil
case <-ctxDoneChan:
// return err:
pc.t.cancelRequest(req.Request, req.Context().Err())
cancelChan = nil
ctxDoneChan = nil
