Types

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

func WithContext(ctx context.Context) Group

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.
