(UNIX socket edition)

Inspired by Unicorn, the goagain package provides primitives for bringing zero-downtime restarts to Go applications that accept connections from a net.UnixListener.

This is a derivative program from rcrowley's https://github.com/rcrowley/goagain.

    go get github.com/Rudd-O/goagain

goagain-example.go shows how it's done. After building it, run it as:

    bin/goagain-example -socket=/tmp/goagain-example.sock

To connect you will need socat installed on your system:

    echo "GET /slow HTTP/1.0
    
    " | socat -t20 - UNIX-CONNECT:/tmp/goagain-example.sock

We've included a command line client in client/sget that helps you perform HTTP requests against a UNIX socket.
