type Group ¶
type Group interface { // Go calls the given function in a new goroutine. // // The first call to return a non-nil error cancels the group; its error will be // returned by Wait. Go(fn func(ctx context.Context) error) // GOMAXPROCS set max goroutine to work. GOMAXPROCS(n int) // Wait blocks until all function calls from the Go method have returned, then // returns the first non-nil error (if any) from them. Wait() error }
A Group is a collection of goroutines working on subtasks that are part of the same overall task.
A zero Group is valid, has no limit on the number of active goroutines, and does not cancel on error. use WithContext instead.
Example (JustErrors) ¶
JustErrors illustrates the use of a Group in place of a sync.WaitGroup to simplify goroutine counting and error handling. This example is derived from the sync.WaitGroup example at https://golang.org/pkg/sync/#example_WaitGroup.
eg := WithContext(context.Background()) urls := []string{ "http://www.golang.org/", "http://www.google.com/", "http://www.somestupidname.com/", } for _, _url := range urls { // Launch a goroutine to fetch the URL. url := _url // https://golang.org/doc/faq#closures_and_goroutines eg.Go(func(context.Context) error { // Fetch the URL. resp, err := http.Get(url) if err == nil { resp.Body.Close() } return err }) } // Wait for all HTTP fetches to complete. if err := eg.Wait(); err == nil { fmt.Println("Successfully fetched all URLs.") }
Output:
Example (Parallel) ¶
Parallel illustrates the use of a Group for synchronizing a simple parallel task: the "Google Search 2.0" function from https://talks.golang.org/2012/concurrency.slide#46, augmented with a Context and error-handling.
Google := func(ctx context.Context, query string) ([]Result, error) { eg := WithContext(context.Background()) searches := []Search{Web, Image, Video} results := make([]Result, len(searches)) for _i, _search := range searches { i, search := _i, _search // https://golang.org/doc/faq#closures_and_goroutines eg.Go(func(context.Context) error { result, err := search(ctx, query) if err == nil { results[i] = result } return err }) } if err := eg.Wait(); err != nil { return nil, err } return results, nil } results, err := Google(context.Background(), "golang") if err != nil { fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err) return } for _, result := range results { fmt.Println(result) }
Output: web result for "golang" image result for "golang" video result for "golang"
func WithContext ¶
WithContext returns a new group with a canceled Context derived from ctx.
The derived Context is canceled the first time a function passed to Go returns a non-nil error or the first time Wait returns, whichever occurs first.
