I'm new to HTTP/2.0, and I'm trying to set up a TCP server, written in Golang, which receives and writes HTTP/2.0 frames. I'm having trouble writing any data back to the client.
The following code snippet shows how the request is handled.
conn, err := l.Accept()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("could not accept connection:", err)
}
defer conn.Close()
// Every connection starts with a connection preface send first, which has to be read prior
// to reading any frames (RFC 7540, section 3.5)
const preface = "PRI * HTTP/2.0
SM
"
b := make([]byte, len(preface))
if _, err := io.ReadFull(conn, b); err != nil {
log.Fatal("could not read from connection:", err)
}
if string(b) != preface {
log.Fatal("invalid preface")
}
framer := http2.NewFramer(conn, conn)
// Read client request (SETTINGS and HEADERS)
readFrames(framer)
// Send empty SETTINGS frame to the client
framer.WriteRawFrame(http2.FrameSettings, 0, 0, []byte{})
// Read clients response (contains empty SETTINGS with END_STREAM flag)
readFrames(framer)
// Prepare HEADERS
hbuf := bytes.NewBuffer([]byte{})
encoder := hpack.NewEncoder(hbuf)
encoder.WriteField(hpack.HeaderField{Name: ":status:", Value: "200"})
encoder.WriteField(hpack.HeaderField{Name: "date", Value: time.Now().UTC().Format(http.TimeFormat)})
encoder.WriteField(hpack.HeaderField{Name: "content-length", Value: strconv.Itoa(len("ok"))})
encoder.WriteField(hpack.HeaderField{Name: "content-type", Value: "text/html"})
// Write HEADERS frame
err = framer.WriteHeaders(http2.HeadersFrameParam{StreamID: 2, BlockFragment: hbuf.Bytes(), EndHeaders: true})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("could not write headers: ", err)
}
// Clients response contains GOAWAY
readFrames(framer)
framer.WriteData(2, true, []byte("ok"))
conn.Close()
The full server can be found here: https://play.golang.org/p/ONA_OoyAMg-
It is called by doing a curl:
curl -kv https://127.0.0.1:8080 --http2
As far as I know, after the SETTINGS frames, the connection should be ready for traffic. A stream should be opened by sending a HEADERS frame, after which a DATA frame can be send on the open stream. However, after sending the HEADERS frame I get the following error message:
curl: (16) Error in the HTTP2 framing layer
The clients responds with a GOAWAY.
