How to set socket in golang

Go language is a very powerful programming language, especially suitable for building highly concurrent network applications. If you are writing a network application in Go, you need to know how to set up sockets. This article will introduce how to set up socket in Go language.

Before doing any network programming, we need to know some basic concepts. The first is a socket, which is a system-level network interface used to send and receive data on the network. In fact, sockets are the key to network communication.

In the Go language, we can use the "net" package to set up sockets. Below are some basic code snippets to help us understand how to set up sockets in Go language.

import (
    "net"
    "os"
)

func main() {
    conn, err := net.Dial("tcp", "google.com:80")
    if err != nil {
        println("Connection error: ", err.Error())
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    defer conn.Close()
}

In this simple example, we use the Dial function to connect to the Google server’s HTTP port (80). In this example, we set up a TCP connection and use "google.com:80" as the destination address. If the connection fails, we print an error and exit the program.

So how to customize socket options in Go language? We need to use some other functions of the "net" package. Here is a more advanced example that demonstrates how to set the timeout option:

import (
    "io/ioutil"
    "net"
    "os"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    conn, err := net.DialTimeout("tcp", "google.com:80", time.Second*5)
    if err != nil {
        println("Connection error: ", err.Error())
        os.Exit(1)
    }
    defer conn.Close()

    conn.SetDeadline(time.Now().Add(time.Second * 10))

    req := "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: google.com\r\n\r\n"
    conn.Write([]byte(req))

    resp, err := ioutil.ReadAll(conn)
    if err != nil {
        println("Read error: ", err.Error())
        os.Exit(1)
    }

    println("Response: ", string(resp))
}

In this example, we first create a TCP connection and set a timeout of 5 seconds. We then set a 10 second deadline using SetDeadline and send a simple HTTP GET request. Finally, we read the response from the connection and print it to the console.

The above two examples illustrate that the Go language provides some very convenient functions to set network socket options. If you are a Go developer, it will be very helpful for you to understand how to use sockets.

Summary:

In this article, we learned how to set up sockets in Go language. We learned how to use the "net" package and related functions to create and customize socket options. If you are writing web applications in Go, the techniques in this article will be of great help to you. Hope this article helps you!
