5// Package context defines the Context type, which carries deadlines,
6// cancellation signals, and other request-scoped values across API boundaries
7// and between processes.
8//
9// Incoming requests to a server should create a Context, and outgoing
10// calls to servers should accept a Context. The chain of function
11// calls between them must propagate the Context, optionally replacing
12// it with a derived Context created using WithCancel, WithDeadline,
13// WithTimeout, or WithValue. When a Context is canceled, all
14// Contexts derived from it are also canceled.
15//
16// The WithCancel, WithDeadline, and WithTimeout functions take a
17// Context (the parent) and return a derived Context (the child) and a
18// CancelFunc. Calling the CancelFunc cancels the child and its
19// children, removes the parent's reference to the child, and stops
20// any associated timers. Failing to call the CancelFunc leaks the
21// child and its children until the parent is canceled or the timer
22// fires. The go vet tool checks that CancelFuncs are used on all
23// control-flow paths.
24//
25// Programs that use Contexts should follow these rules to keep interfaces
26// consistent across packages and enable static analysis tools to check context
27// propagation:
28//
29// Do not store Contexts inside a struct type; instead, pass a Context
30// explicitly to each function that needs it. The Context should be the first
31// parameter, typically named ctx:
32//
33// func DoSomething(ctx context.Context, arg Arg) error {
34// // ... use ctx ...
35// }
36//
37// Do not pass a nil Context, even if a function permits it. Pass context.TODO
38// if you are unsure about which Context to use.
39//
40// Use context Values only for request-scoped data that transits processes and
41// APIs, not for passing optional parameters to functions.
42//
43// The same Context may be passed to functions running in different goroutines;
44// Contexts are safe for simultaneous use by multiple goroutines.
45//
46// See https://blog.golang.org/context for example code for a server that uses
47// Contexts.
