A Go library for building socket-based servers that support graceful termination and restart without dropping connections. It provides APIs for HTTP servers (including TLS and multiple listeners) and is compatible with systemd socket activation.

Use cases

  • zero downtime deploys for go http servers
  • graceful restart without dropping connections
  • hot reload a go server on signal
  • serve in-flight requests before shutdown
  • systemd socket activation for go services
  • gracefully restart server listening on multiple ports

When to choose

  • you need zero-downtime restarts for a Go HTTP or socket server
  • you want in-flight requests to complete during a restart
  • you need systemd socket activation compatibility

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained library - the repo is archived
  • you deploy behind a load balancer or reverse proxy that can drain connections for you
  • you use a modern framework with built-in graceful shutdown
