Go中的基本HTTP身份验证

Question

I'm trying to do basic HTTP auth with the code below, but it is throwing out the following error:

2013/05/21 10:22:58 Get mydomain.com: unsupported protocol scheme "" exit status 1

func basicAuth() string {
    var username string = "foo"
    var passwd string = "bar"
    client := &http.Client{}
    req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "mydomain.com", nil)
    req.SetBasicAuth(username, passwd)
    resp, err := client.Do(req)
    if err != nil{
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    bodyText, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
    s := string(bodyText)
    return s
}

Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

You need to specify the protocol for NewRequest, e.g. "http://", see here.

req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://mydomain.com", nil)
