Gin: add support to disabe keepalive

Created on 6 May 2015 · 3Comments · Source: gin-gonic/gin

If gin would've used http.Server, I could've just done the following:

// s is a http.Server instance
s.SetKeepAlivesEnabled(false)

But gin doesn't allow that. So, how do we accomplish this?

    router := gin.Default()

    s := &http.Server{
        Addr:           ":8080",
        Handler:        router, // < here Gin is attached to the HTTP server
    //  ReadTimeout:    10 * time.Second,
    //  WriteTimeout:   10 * time.Second,
    //  MaxHeaderBytes: 1 << 20,
    }
    s.SetKeepAlivesEnabled(false)
    s.ListenAndServe()

Gin (muxer) and the HTTP server work at different layers of abstraction.

could be especially useful for scalable REST servers, so single-request connections don't linger.
