GoGET

A Go implementation of an HTTP Getter with fully self-implemented URL parsing, DNS resolution and HTTP GET request and response parsing using only transport layer APIs.

Functions

  • HTTP/HTTPS scheme with default or custom port
  • Concurrent DNS resolution for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
  • HTTP 1.1 GET request and response parsing
  • HTTP redirect following with cookie handled
  • Chunked HTTP response body supported
  • HTTP response body with gzip encoding supported
  • Multi-thread downloading large response bodies

Installing

  1. Clone the git repository to your $GOPATH
  2. Modify the import in goget.go to match the absolute path of the gonet package in your $GOPATH
  3. Run the following command: go install GoGET/goget
  4. Get the executable goget in your $GOPATH/bin

Usage

goget accept only one argument, the URL:

goget http://www.test.com

If there is no error, goget will print the received HTTP response body result to stdout. It will also print the resolved IP address and HTTP request/response header in stderr. If anything goes wrong, goget will leave stdout empty and send error message to stderr.

Libraries used for main functions

  • Go's native TLS library
  • Go's native gzip library
