5 // Package context defines the Context type, which carries deadlines,
6 // cancelation signals, and other request-scoped values across API boundaries
7 // and between processes.
8 //
9 // Incoming requests to a server should create a Context, and outgoing
10 // calls to servers should accept a Context. The chain of function
11 // calls between them must propagate the Context, optionally replacing
12 // it with a derived Context created using WithCancel, WithDeadline,
13 // WithTimeout, or WithValue. When a Context is canceled, all
14 // Contexts derived from it are also canceled.
16 // The WithCancel, WithDeadline, and WithTimeout functions take a
17 // Context (the parent) and return a derived Context (the child) and a
18 // CancelFunc. Calling the CancelFunc cancels the child and its
19 // children, removes the parent's reference to the child, and stops
20 // any associated timers. Failing to call the CancelFunc leaks the
21 // child and its children until the parent is canceled or the timer
22 // fires. The go vet tool checks that CancelFuncs are used on all
23 // control-flow paths.
25 // Programs that use Contexts should follow these rules to keep interfaces
26 // consistent across packages and enable static analysis tools to check context
27 // propagation:
29 // Do not store Contexts inside a struct type; instead, pass a Context
30 // explicitly to each function that needs it. The Context should be the first
31 // parameter, typically named ctx:
33 // func DoSomething(ctx context.Context, arg Arg) error {
34 // // ... use ctx ...
35 // }
37 // Do not pass a nil Context, even if a function permits it. Pass context.TODO
38 // if you are unsure about which Context to use.
40 // Use context Values only for request-scoped data that transits processes and
41 // APIs, not for passing optional parameters to functions.
43 // The same Context may be passed to functions running in different goroutines;
44 // Contexts are safe for simultaneous use by multiple goroutines.
46 // See https://blog.golang.org/context for example code for a server that uses
47 // Contexts.
