x/net/http2: deprecate Transport and Server
Worth knowingstdlib
- What changed
- The proposal deprecates the
x/net/http2TransportandServertypes, theConfigureServer,ConfigureTransport, andConfigureTransportsfunctions, theClientConnandClientConnStatetypes, and theRoundTripOptandServeConnOptsoption types. - Production impact
- The source does not say.
- Try it
- Run
go doc net/httpto see the deprecation notices for HTTP/2 configuration. - Source
- github.com/golang/go/issues/78064
Understand it, then run it
Run it now
// This program shows that HTTP/2 can be used with the standard net/http
// package without importing x/net/http2. It starts a local HTTPS server
// that automatically serves HTTP/2, then makes a request to it using a
// net/http Transport configured for TLS. The output confirms the
// request succeeded and the server responded with status 200.
package main
import (
"crypto/tls"
"fmt"
"net/http"
"net/http/httptest"
)
func main() {
// Create a test HTTPS server that serves HTTP/2 automatically.
server := httptest.NewTLSServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
fmt.Fprintln(w, "Hello, HTTP/2!")
}))
defer server.Close()
// Configure a client Transport that uses TLS with the server's cert.
transport := &http.Transport{
TLSClientConfig: &tls.Config{InsecureSkipVerify: true},
}
client := &http.Client{Transport: transport}
// Make a request to the test server.
resp, err := client.Get(server.URL)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("request error:", err)
return
}
defer resp.Body.Close()
// Print the status code to show the request succeeded.
fmt.Println("Response status:", resp.Status)
}
What it printed when we ran it on Go 1.27.1
Response status: 200 OK
Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
