Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Ideas on generics in Go

As we all know, Go 2 is on its way and despite the hesitations, it's clear that without generics, it would end up being a disappointment. And although we are still gathering real-life use-cases, or experience reports, there's nothing bad about starting to think about how generics in Go could look like.

Wrapping a ResponseWriter to capture the status code
// Create our own MyResponseWriter to wrap a standard http.ResponseWriter
// so we can store the status code.
type MyResponseWriter struct {
status int
http.ResponseWriter
}
func NewMyResponseWriter(res http.ResponseWriter) *MyResponseWriter {
// Default the status code to 200
return &MyResponseWriter{200, res}
