An io.Reader can read into the buffer and return the io.EOF in the same call. In fact, that's how the quic.Stream is implemented. In that case, we shouldn't return an error from quicvarint.Read, otherwise the caller won't be able to parse a varint sent just before a stream was closed.
A QUIC implementation in pure Go
quic-go is an implementation of the QUIC protocol, RFC 9000 protocol in Go, including the Unreliable Datagram Extension, RFC 9221.
In addition to RFC 9000, it currently implements the IETF QUIC draft-29. Support for draft-29 will eventually be dropped, as it is phased out of the ecosystem.
Guides
We currently support Go 1.16.x, Go 1.17.x, and Go 1.18.x.
Running tests:
go test ./...
QUIC without HTTP/3
Take a look at this echo example.
Usage
As a server
See the example server. Starting a QUIC server is very similar to the standard lib http in go:
http.Handle("/", http.FileServer(http.Dir(wwwDir)))
http3.ListenAndServeQUIC("localhost:4242", "/path/to/cert/chain.pem", "/path/to/privkey.pem", nil)
As a client
See the example client. Use a http3.RoundTripper as a Transport in a http.Client.
http.Client{
Transport: &http3.RoundTripper{},
}
