Variables

var ErrHandlerTimeout = errors.New("http: Handler timeout")

ErrHandlerTimeout is returned on ResponseWriter Write calls in handlers which have timed out.

Functions

func Handler

func Handler(h http.Handler, dt time.Duration, fh http.Handler) http.Handler

Handler returns a Handler that runs h with the given time limit.

The new Handler calls h.ServeHTTP to handle each request, but if a call runs for longer than its time limit, the handler responds with a 503 Service Unavailable error and the given message in its body. (If msg is empty, a suitable default message will be sent.) After such a timeout, writes by h to its ResponseWriter will return ErrHandlerTimeout.
