go-jsonrpc
JSON-RPC 2.0 library
Usage examples
Server
// Have a type with some exported methods
type SimpleServerHandler struct {
n int
}
func (h *SimpleServerHandler) AddGet(in int) int {
h.n += in
return h.n
}
func main() {
// create a new server instance
rpcServer := jsonrpc.NewServer()
// create a handler instance and register it
serverHandler := &SimpleServerHandler{}
rpcServer.Register("SimpleServerHandler", serverHandler)
// rpcServer is now http.Handler which will serve jsonrpc calls to SimpleServerHandler.AddGet
// a method with a single int param, and an int response. The server supports both http and websockets.
// serve the api
testServ := httptest.NewServer(rpcServer)
defer testServ.Close()
fmt.Println("URL: ", "ws://"+testServ.Listener.Addr().String())
[..do other app stuff / wait..]
}
Client
func start() error {
// Create a struct where each field is an exported function with signatures matching rpc calls
var client struct {
AddGet func(int) int
}
// Make jsonrp populate func fields in the struct with JSONRPC calls
closer, err := jsonrpc.NewClient(context.Background(), rpcURL, "SimpleServerHandler", &client, nil)
if err != nil {
return err
}
defer closer()
...
n := client.AddGet(10)
// if the server is the one from the example above, n = 10
n := client.AddGet(2)
// if the server is the one from the example above, n = 12
}
Supported function signatures
type _ interface {
// No Params / Return val
Func1()
// With Params
// Note: If param types implement json.[Un]Marshaler, go-jsonrpc will use it
Func2(param1 int, param2 string, param3 struct{A int})
// Returning errors
// * For some connection errors, go-jsonrpc will return jsonrpc.RPCConnectionError{}.
// * RPC-returned errors will be constructed with basic errors.New(__"string message"__)
// * JSON-RPC error codes can be mapped to typed errors with jsonrpc.Errors - https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/filecoin-project/go-jsonrpc#Errors
// * For typed errors to work, server needs to be constructed with the `WithServerErrors`
// option, and the client needs to be constructed with the `WithErrors` option
Func3() error
// Returning a value
// Note: The value must be serializable with encoding/json.
Func4() int
// Returning a value and an error
// Note: if the handler returns an error and a non-zero value, the value will not
// be returned to the client - the client will see a zero value.
Func4() (int, error)
// With context
// * Context isn't passed as JSONRPC param, instead it has a number of different uses
// * When the context is cancelled on the client side, context cancellation should propagate to the server handler
// * In http mode the http request will be aborted
// * In websocket mode the client will send a `xrpc.cancel` with a single param containing ID of the cancelled request
// * If the context contains an opencensus trace span, it will be propagated to the server through a
// `"Meta": {"SpanContext": base64.StdEncoding.EncodeToString(propagation.Binary(span.SpanContext()))}` field in
// the jsonrpc request
//
Func5(ctx context.Context, param1 string) error
// With non-json-serializable (e.g. interface) params
// * There are client and server options which make it possible to register transformers for types
// to make them json-(de)serializable
// * Server side: jsonrpc.WithParamDecoder(new(io.Reader), func(ctx context.Context, b []byte) (reflect.Value, error) { ... }
// * Client side: jsonrpc.WithParamEncoder(new(io.Reader), func(value reflect.Value) (reflect.Value, error) { ... }
// * For io.Reader specifically there's a simple param encoder/decoder implementation in go-jsonrpc/httpio package
// which will pass reader data through separate http streams on a different hanhler.
// * Note: a similar mechanism for return value transformation isn't supported yet
Func6(r io.Reader)
// Returning a channel
// * Only supported in websocket mode
// * If no error is returned, the return value will be an int channelId
// * When the server handler writes values into the channel, the client will receive `xrpc.ch.val` notifications
// with 2 params: [chanID: int, value: any]
// * When the channel is closed the client will receive `xrpc.ch.close` notification with a single param: [chanId: int]
// * The client-side channel will be closed when the websocket connection breaks; Server side will discard writes to
// the channel. Handlers should rely on the context to know when to stop writing to the returned channel.
// NOTE: There is no good backpressure mechanism implemented for channels, returning values faster that the client can
// receive them may cause memory leaks.
Func7(ctx context.Context, param1 int, param2 string) (<-chan int, error)

const DEFAULT_MAX_REQUEST_SIZE = 100 << 20 // 100 MiB
Limit request size. Ideally this limit should be specific for each field in the JSON request but as a simple defensive measure we just limit the entire HTTP body. Configured by WithMaxRequestSize.

Functions ¶
func WithErrors ¶
func WithNoReconnect ¶
func WithNoReconnect() func(c *Config)

Types ¶
type ClientCloser ¶
type ClientCloser func()
ClientCloser is used to close Client from further use
func NewClient ¶
func NewClient(ctx context.Context, addr string, namespace string, handler interface{}, requestHeader http.Header) (ClientCloser, error)
NewClient creates new jsonrpc 2.0 client
handler must be pointer to a struct with function fields Returned value closes the client connection TODO: Example
func NewMergeClient ¶
func NewMergeClient(ctx context.Context, addr string, namespace string, outs []interface{}, requestHeader http.Header, opts ...Option) (ClientCloser, error)
NewMergeClient is like NewClient, but allows to specify multiple structs to be filled in the same namespace, using one connection
type ErrClient ¶
type ErrClient struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
ErrClient is an error which occurred on the client side the library
