Overview

Package net provides a portable interface for network I/O, including TCP/IP, UDP, domain name resolution, and Unix domain sockets.

Although the package provides access to low-level networking primitives, most clients will need only the basic interface provided by the Dial, Listen, and Accept functions and the associated Conn and Listener interfaces. The crypto/tls package uses the same interfaces and similar Dial and Listen functions.

The Dial function connects to a server: 

conn, err := net.Dial("tcp", "google.com:80")
if err != nil {
	// handle error
}
fmt.Fprintf(conn, "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")
status, err := bufio.NewReader(conn).ReadString('\n')
// ...

The Listen function creates servers: 

ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":8080")
if err != nil {
	// handle error
}
for {
	conn, err := ln.Accept()
	if err != nil {
		// handle error
	}
	go handleConnection(conn)
}

Name Resolution

The method for resolving domain names, whether indirectly with functions like Dial or directly with functions like LookupHost and LookupAddr, varies by operating system.

On Unix systems, the resolver has two options for resolving names. It can use a pure Go resolver that sends DNS requests directly to the servers listed in /etc/resolv.conf, or it can use a cgo-based resolver that calls C library routines such as getaddrinfo and getnameinfo.

By default the pure Go resolver is used, because a blocked DNS request consumes only a goroutine, while a blocked C call consumes an operating system thread. When cgo is available, the cgo-based resolver is used instead under a variety of conditions: on systems that do not let programs make direct DNS requests (OS X), when the LOCALDOMAIN environment variable is present (even if empty), when the RES_OPTIONS or HOSTALIASES environment variable is non-empty, when the ASR_CONFIG environment variable is non-empty (OpenBSD only), when /etc/resolv.conf or /etc/nsswitch.conf specify the use of features that the Go resolver does not implement, and when the name being looked up ends in .local or is an mDNS name.

The resolver decision can be overridden by setting the netdns value of the GODEBUG environment variable (see package runtime) to go or cgo, as in: 

export GODEBUG=netdns=go    # force pure Go resolver
export GODEBUG=netdns=cgo   # force cgo resolver

The decision can also be forced while building the Go source tree by setting the netgo or netcgo build tag.

A numeric netdns setting, as in GODEBUG=netdns=1, causes the resolver to print debugging information about its decisions. To force a particular resolver while also printing debugging information, join the two settings by a plus sign, as in GODEBUG=netdns=go+1.

On Plan 9, the resolver always accesses /net/cs and /net/dns.

On Windows, the resolver always uses C library functions, such as GetAddrInfo and DnsQuery.

Functions

func JoinHostPort 

func JoinHostPort(host, port string) string

JoinHostPort combines host and port into a network address of the form "host:port" or, if host contains a colon or a percent sign, "[host]:port".

func LookupAddr 

func LookupAddr(addr string) (names []string, err error)

LookupAddr performs a reverse lookup for the given address, returning a list of names mapping to that address.

func LookupCNAME 

func LookupCNAME(name string) (cname string, err error)

LookupCNAME returns the canonical DNS host for the given name. Callers that do not care about the canonical name can call LookupHost or LookupIP directly; both take care of resolving the canonical name as part of the lookup.

func LookupHost 

func LookupHost(host string) (addrs []string, err error)

LookupHost looks up the given host using the local resolver. It returns an array of that host's addresses.

func LookupPort 

func LookupPort(network, service string) (port int, err error)

LookupPort looks up the port for the given network and service.

func LookupTXT 

func LookupTXT(name string) (txts []string, err error)

LookupTXT returns the DNS TXT records for the given domain name.

func ParseCIDR 

func ParseCIDR(s string) (IP, *IPNet, error)

ParseCIDR parses s as a CIDR notation IP address and mask, like "192.168.100.1/24" or "2001:DB8::/48", as defined in RFC 4632 and RFC 4291.

It returns the IP address and the network implied by the IP and mask. For example, ParseCIDR("192.168.100.1/16") returns the IP address 192.168.100.1 and the network 192.168.0.0/16.

func Pipe 

func Pipe() (Conn, Conn)

Pipe creates a synchronous, in-memory, full duplex network connection; both ends implement the Conn interface. Reads on one end are matched with writes on the other, copying data directly between the two; there is no internal buffering.

func SplitHostPort 

func SplitHostPort(hostport string) (host, port string, err error)

SplitHostPort splits a network address of the form "host:port", "[host]:port" or "[ipv6-host%zone]:port" into host or ipv6-host%zone and port. A literal address or host name for IPv6 must be enclosed in square brackets, as in "[::1]:80", "[ipv6-host]:http" or "[ipv6-host%zone]:80".

Types

type Addr 

type Addr interface {
	Network() string // name of the network
	String() string  // string form of address
}

Addr represents a network end point address.

func InterfaceAddrs 

func InterfaceAddrs() ([]Addr, error)

InterfaceAddrs returns a list of the system's network interface addresses.

type AddrError 

type AddrError struct {
	Err  string
	Addr string
}

func (*AddrError) Error 

func (e *AddrError) Error() string

func (*AddrError) Temporary 

func (e *AddrError) Temporary() bool

func (*AddrError) Timeout 

func (e *AddrError) Timeout() bool

type Conn 

type Conn interface {
	// Read reads data from the connection.
	// Read can be made to time out and return a Error with Timeout() == true
	// after a fixed time limit; see SetDeadline and SetReadDeadline.
	Read(b []byte) (n int, err error)

	// Write writes data to the connection.
	// Write can be made to time out and return a Error with Timeout() == true
	// after a fixed time limit; see SetDeadline and SetWriteDeadline.
	Write(b []byte) (n int, err error)

	// Close closes the connection.
	// Any blocked Read or Write operations will be unblocked and return errors.
	Close() error

	// LocalAddr returns the local network address.
	LocalAddr() Addr

	// RemoteAddr returns the remote network address.
	RemoteAddr() Addr

	// SetDeadline sets the read and write deadlines associated
	// with the connection. It is equivalent to calling both
	// SetReadDeadline and SetWriteDeadline.
	//
	// A deadline is an absolute time after which I/O operations
	// fail with a timeout (see type Error) instead of
	// blocking. The deadline applies to all future I/O, not just
	// the immediately following call to Read or Write.
	//
	// An idle timeout can be implemented by repeatedly extending
	// the deadline after successful Read or Write calls.
	//
	// A zero value for t means I/O operations will not time out.
	SetDeadline(t time.Time) error

	// SetReadDeadline sets the deadline for future Read calls.
	// A zero value for t means Read will not time out.
	SetReadDeadline(t time.Time) error

	// SetWriteDeadline sets the deadline for future Write calls.
	// Even if write times out, it may return n > 0, indicating that
	// some of the data was successfully written.
	// A zero value for t means Write will not time out.
	SetWriteDeadline(t time.Time) error
}

Conn is a generic stream-oriented network connection.

Multiple goroutines may invoke methods on a Conn simultaneously.

func Dial 

func Dial(network, address string) (Conn, error)

Dial connects to the address on the named network.

Known networks are "tcp", "tcp4" (IPv4-only), "tcp6" (IPv6-only), "udp", "udp4" (IPv4-only), "udp6" (IPv6-only), "ip", "ip4" (IPv4-only), "ip6" (IPv6-only), "unix", "unixgram" and "unixpacket".

For TCP and UDP networks, addresses have the form host:port. If host is a literal IPv6 address it must be enclosed in square brackets as in "[::1]:80" or "[ipv6-host%zone]:80". The functions JoinHostPort and SplitHostPort manipulate addresses in this form.

Examples: 

Dial("tcp", "12.34.56.78:80")
Dial("tcp", "google.com:http")
Dial("tcp", "[2001:db8::1]:http")
Dial("tcp", "[fe80::1%lo0]:80")

For IP networks, the network must be "ip", "ip4" or "ip6" followed by a colon and a protocol number or name and the addr must be a literal IP address.

Examples: 

Dial("ip4:1", "127.0.0.1")
Dial("ip6:ospf", "::1")

For Unix networks, the address must be a file system path.

func DialTimeout 

func DialTimeout(network, address string, timeout time.Duration) (Conn, error)

DialTimeout acts like Dial but takes a timeout. The timeout includes name resolution, if required.

func FileConn 

func FileConn(f *os.File) (c Conn, err error)

FileConn returns a copy of the network connection corresponding to the open file f. It is the caller's responsibility to close f when finished. Closing c does not affect f, and closing f does not affect c.

type DNSConfigError 

type DNSConfigError struct {
	Err error
}

DNSConfigError represents an error reading the machine's DNS configuration. (No longer used; kept for compatibility.)

func (*DNSConfigError) Error 

func (e *DNSConfigError) Error() string

func (*DNSConfigError) Temporary 

func (e *DNSConfigError) Temporary() bool

func (*DNSConfigError) Timeout 

func (e *DNSConfigError) Timeout() bool

type DNSError 

type DNSError struct {
	Err         string // description of the error
	Name        string // name looked for
	Server      string // server used
	IsTimeout   bool   // if true, timed out; not all timeouts set this
	IsTemporary bool   // if true, error is temporary; not all errors set this
}

DNSError represents a DNS lookup error.

func (*DNSError) Error 

func (e *DNSError) Error() string

func (*DNSError) Temporary 

func (e *DNSError) Temporary() bool

Temporary reports whether the DNS error is known to be temporary. This is not always known; a DNS lookup may fail due to a temporary error and return a DNSError for which Temporary returns false.

func (*DNSError) Timeout 

func (e *DNSError) Timeout() bool

Timeout reports whether the DNS lookup is known to have timed out. This is not always known; a DNS lookup may fail due to a timeout and return a DNSError for which Timeout returns false.

type Dialer 

type Dialer struct {
	// Timeout is the maximum amount of time a dial will wait for
	// a connect to complete. If Deadline is also set, it may fail
	// earlier.
	//
	// The default is no timeout.
	//
	// When dialing a name with multiple IP addresses, the timeout
	// may be divided between them.
	//
	// With or without a timeout, the operating system may impose
	// its own earlier timeout. For instance, TCP timeouts are
	// often around 3 minutes.
	Timeout time.Duration

	// Deadline is the absolute point in time after which dials
	// will fail. If Timeout is set, it may fail earlier.
	// Zero means no deadline, or dependent on the operating system
	// as with the Timeout option.
	Deadline time.Time

	// LocalAddr is the local address to use when dialing an
	// address. The address must be of a compatible type for the
	// network being dialed.
	// If nil, a local address is automatically chosen.
	LocalAddr Addr

	// DualStack enables RFC 6555-compliant "Happy Eyeballs" dialing
	// when the network is "tcp" and the destination is a host name
	// with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This allows a client to
	// tolerate networks where one address family is silently broken.
	DualStack bool

	// FallbackDelay specifies the length of time to wait before
	// spawning a fallback connection, when DualStack is enabled.
	// If zero, a default delay of 300ms is used.
	FallbackDelay time.Duration

	// KeepAlive specifies the keep-alive period for an active
	// network connection.
	// If zero, keep-alives are not enabled. Network protocols
	// that do not support keep-alives ignore this field.
	KeepAlive time.Duration
}

A Dialer contains options for connecting to an address.

The zero value for each field is equivalent to dialing without that option. Dialing with the zero value of Dialer is therefore equivalent to just calling the Dial function.

Dial connects to the address on the named network.

See func Dial for a description of the network and address parameters.

const (
	FlagUp           Flags = 1 << iota // interface is up
	FlagBroadcast                      // interface supports broadcast access capability
	FlagLoopback                       // interface is a loopback interface
	FlagPointToPoint                   // interface belongs to a point-to-point link

Notes

Bugs

  • On every POSIX platform, reads from the "ip4" network using the ReadFrom or ReadFromIP method might not return a complete IPv4 packet, including its header, even if there is space available. This can occur even in cases where Read or ReadMsgIP could return a complete packet. For this reason, it is recommended that you do not uses these methods if it is important to receive a full packet.

    The Go 1 compatibility guidelines make it impossible for us to change the behavior of these methods; use Read or ReadMsgIP instead.

  • On DragonFly BSD and OpenBSD, listening on the "tcp" and "udp" networks does not listen for both IPv4 and IPv6 connections. This is due to the fact that IPv4 traffic will not be routed to an IPv6 socket - two separate sockets are required if both address families are to be supported. See inet6(4) for details.
