HTTP/3

PkgGoDev

This package implements HTTP/3 (RFC 9114), including QPACK (RFC 9204). It aims to provide feature parity with the standard library's HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 implementation.

Serving HTTP/3

The easiest way to start an HTTP/3 server is using

mux := http.NewServeMux()
// ... add HTTP handlers to mux ...
// If mux is nil, the http.DefaultServeMux is used.
http3.ListenAndServeQUIC("0.0.0.0:443", "/path/to/cert", "/path/to/key", mux)

ListenAndServeQUIC is a convenience function. For more configurability, set up an http3.Server explicitly:

server := http3.Server{
	Handler:    mux,
	Addr:       "0.0.0.0:443",
	TLSConfig:  http3.ConfigureTLSConfig(&tls.Config{}), // use your tls.Config here
	QuicConfig: &quic.Config{},
}
err := server.ListenAndServe()

The http3.Server provides a number of configuration options, please refer to the documentation for a complete list. The QuicConfig is used to configure the underlying QUIC connection. More details can be found in the documentation of the QUIC package.

It is also possible to manually set up a quic.Transport, and then pass the listener to the server. This is useful when you want to set configuration options on the quic.Transport.

tr := quic.Transport{Conn: conn}
tlsConf := http3.ConfigureTLSConfig(&tls.Config{})  // use your tls.Config here
quicConf := &quic.Config{} // QUIC connection options
server := http3.Server{}
ln, _ := tr.ListenEarly(tlsConf, quicConf)
server.ServeListener(ln)

Alternatively, it is also possible to pass fully established QUIC connections to the HTTP/3 server. This is useful if the QUIC server offers multiple ALPNs (via NextProtos in the tls.Config).

tr := quic.Transport{Conn: conn}
tlsConf := http3.ConfigureTLSConfig(&tls.Config{})  // use your tls.Config here
quicConf := &quic.Config{} // QUIC connection options
server := http3.Server{}
// alternatively, use tr.ListenEarly to accept 0-RTT connections
ln, _ := tr.Listen(tlsConf, quicConf)
for {
	c, _ := ln.Accept()
	switch c.ConnectionState().TLS.NegotiatedProtocol {
	case http3.NextProtoH3:
		go server.ServeQUICConn(c) 
        // ... handle other protocols ...  
	}
}

Dialing HTTP/3

This package provides a http.RoundTripper implementation that can be used on the http.Client:

&http3.RoundTripper{
	TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{},  // set a TLS client config, if desired
	QuicConfig:      &quic.Config{}, // QUIC connection options
}
defer roundTripper.Close()
client := &http.Client{
	Transport: roundTripper,
}

The http3.RoundTripper provides a number of configuration options, please refer to the documentation for a complete list.

To use a custom quic.Transport, the function used to dial new QUIC connections can be configured:

tr := quic.Transport{}
roundTripper := &http3.RoundTripper{
	TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{},  // set a TLS client config, if desired 
	QuicConfig:      &quic.Config{}, // QUIC connection options 
	Dial: func(ctx context.Context, addr string, tlsConf *tls.Config, quicConf *quic.Config) (quic.EarlyConnection, error) {
		a, err := net.ResolveUDPAddr("udp", addr)
		if err != nil {
			return nil, err
		}
		return tr.DialEarly(ctx, a, tlsConf, quicConf)
	},
}

Using the same UDP Socket for Server and Roundtripper

Since QUIC demultiplexes packets based on their connection IDs, it is possible allows running a QUIC server and client on the same UDP socket. This also works when using HTTP/3: HTTP requests can be sent from the same socket that a server is listening on.

To achieve this using this package, first initialize a single quic.Transport, and pass a quic.EarlyListner obtained from that transport to http3.Server.ServeListener, and use the DialEarly function of the transport as the Dial function for the http3.RoundTripper.

QPACK

HTTP/3 utilizes QPACK (RFC 9204) for efficient HTTP header field compression. Our implementation, available atquic-go/qpack, provides a minimal implementation of the protocol.

While the current implementation is a fully interoperable implementation of the QPACK protocol, it only uses the static compression table. The dynamic table would allow for more effective compression of frequently transmitted header fields. This can be particularly beneficial in scenarios where headers have considerable redundancy or in high-throughput environments.

If you think that your application would benefit from higher compression efficiency, or if you're interested in contributing improvements here, please let us know in #2424.

Constants

View Source 
const MethodGet0RTT = "GET_0RTT"

MethodGet0RTT allows a GET request to be sent using 0-RTT. Note that 0-RTT data doesn't provide replay protection.

View Source 
const NextProtoH3 = "h3"

NextProtoH3 is the ALPN protocol negotiated during the TLS handshake, for QUIC v1 and v2.

Variables

View Source 
var ErrNoAltSvcPort = errors.New("no port can be announced, specify it explicitly using Server.Port or Server.Addr")

ErrNoAltSvcPort is the error returned by SetQuicHeaders when no port was found for Alt-Svc to announce. This can happen if listening on a PacketConn without a port (UNIX socket, for example) and no port is specified in Server.Port or Server.Addr.

View Source 
var ErrNoCachedConn = errors.New("http3: no cached connection was available")

ErrNoCachedConn is returned when RoundTripper.OnlyCachedConn is set

View Source 
var RemoteAddrContextKey = &contextKey{"remote-addr"}

RemoteAddrContextKey is a context key. It can be used in HTTP handlers with Context.Value to access the remote address of the connection. The associated value will be of type net.Addr.

Use this value instead of http.Request.RemoteAddr if you require access to the remote address of the connection rather than its string representation.

View Source 
var ServerContextKey = &contextKey{"http3-server"}

ServerContextKey is a context key. It can be used in HTTP handlers with Context.Value to access the server that started the handler. The associated value will be of type *http3.Server.

Functions

func ConfigureTLSConfig 

func ConfigureTLSConfig(tlsConf *tls.Config) *tls.Config

ConfigureTLSConfig creates a new tls.Config which can be used to create a quic.Listener meant for serving http3. The created tls.Config adds the functionality of detecting the used QUIC version in order to set the correct ALPN value for the http3 connection.

func ListenAndServe 

func ListenAndServe(addr, certFile, keyFile string, handler http.Handler) error

ListenAndServe listens on the given network address for both TLS/TCP and QUIC connections in parallel. It returns if one of the two returns an error. http.DefaultServeMux is used when handler is nil. The correct Alt-Svc headers for QUIC are set.

func ListenAndServeQUIC 

func ListenAndServeQUIC(addr, certFile, keyFile string, handler http.Handler) error

ListenAndServeQUIC listens on the UDP network address addr and calls the handler for HTTP/3 requests on incoming connections. http.DefaultServeMux is used when handler is nil.

type RoundTripper 

type RoundTripper struct {

	// DisableCompression, if true, prevents the Transport from
	// requesting compression with an "Accept-Encoding: gzip"
	// request header when the Request contains no existing
	// Accept-Encoding value. If the Transport requests gzip on
	// its own and gets a gzipped response, it's transparently

type Server 

type Server struct {
	// Addr optionally specifies the UDP address for the server to listen on,
	// in the form "host:port".
	//
	// When used by ListenAndServe and ListenAndServeTLS methods, if empty,
	// ":https" (port 443) is used. See net.Dial for details of the address

	// Otherwise, if Port is not set and underlying QUIC listeners do not
	// have valid port numbers, the port part is used in Alt-Svc headers set
	// with SetQuicHeaders.
	Addr string

	// Port is used in Alt-Svc response headers set with SetQuicHeaders. If
	// needed Port can be manually set when the Server is created.
	//
	// This is useful when a Layer 4 firewall is redirecting UDP traffic and

}

Server is a HTTP/3 server.

func (*Server) Close 

func (s *Server) Close() error

Close the server immediately, aborting requests and sending CONNECTION_CLOSE frames to connected clients. Close in combination with ListenAndServe() (instead of Serve()) may race if it is called before a UDP socket is established.

func (*Server) CloseGracefully 

func (s *Server) CloseGracefully(timeout time.Duration) error

CloseGracefully shuts down the server gracefully. The server sends a GOAWAY frame first, then waits for either timeout to trigger, or for all running requests to complete. CloseGracefully in combination with ListenAndServe() (instead of Serve()) may race if it is called before a UDP socket is established.

func (*Server) ListenAndServe 

func (s *Server) ListenAndServe() error

ListenAndServe listens on the UDP address s.Addr and calls s.Handler to handle HTTP/3 requests on incoming connections.

If s.Addr is blank, ":https" is used.

func (*Server) ListenAndServeTLS 

func (s *Server) ListenAndServeTLS(certFile, keyFile string) error

ListenAndServeTLS listens on the UDP address s.Addr and calls s.Handler to handle HTTP/3 requests on incoming connections.

If s.Addr is blank, ":https" is used.

func (*Server) Serve 

func (s *Server) Serve(conn net.PacketConn) error

Serve an existing UDP connection. It is possible to reuse the same connection for outgoing connections. Closing the server does not close the connection.

func (*Server) ServeListener 

func (s *Server) ServeListener(ln QUICEarlyListener) error

ServeListener serves an existing QUIC listener. Make sure you use http3.ConfigureTLSConfig to configure a tls.Config and use it to construct a http3-friendly QUIC listener. Closing the server does close the listener. ServeListener always returns a non-nil error. After Shutdown or Close, the returned error is http.ErrServerClosed.

func (*Server) ServeQUICConn 

func (s *Server) ServeQUICConn(conn quic.Connection) error

ServeQUICConn serves a single QUIC connection.

func (*Server) SetQuicHeaders 

func (s *Server) SetQuicHeaders(hdr http.Header) error

SetQuicHeaders can be used to set the proper headers that announce that this server supports HTTP/3. The values set by default advertise all of the ports the server is listening on, but can be changed to a specific port by setting Server.Port before launching the serverr. If no listener's Addr().String() returns an address with a valid port, Server.Addr will be used to extract the port, if specified. For example, a server launched using ListenAndServe on an address with port 443 would set: 

Alt-Svc: h3=":443"; ma=2592000,h3-29=":443"; ma=2592000

type Stream 

type Stream quic.Stream

A Stream is a HTTP/3 stream. When writing to and reading from the stream, data is framed in HTTP/3 DATA frames.

type StreamType 

type StreamType uint64

StreamType is the stream type of a unidirectional stream.
