Look at how net/http/httptest does it. > I wasn't sure if you're referring to goServe https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/http/httptest/server.go#L304 which is called from Start()? This seems to return only after the server is stopped. I've found the idea interesting though. Using a WaitGroup you could at least ensure that the gofunc containing the call to Serve() has at least be started. That still doesn't seem to be sufficient though: ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":"+port) if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } var wg sync.WaitGroup wg.Add(1) go func() { server := &http.Server{Addr: ":" + port, Handler: handler} wg.Done() log.Fatal(server.Serve(ln)) }() wg.Wait() Cheers, Andi > > On Sat, 27 Mar 2021, 14:13 cpu...@gmail.com, <cpu...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> The typical Go tutorials pattern for starting a server is something like >> >> log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080")) >> >> But what if the application needs to do other things after the server is >> started?
