Using gin framework.
Is there anyway to notify client to close request connection, then server handler can do any back-ground jobs without letting the clients to wait on the connection?
func Test(c *gin.Context) {
c.String(200, "ok")
// close client request, then do some jobs, for example sync data with remote server.
//
}
Yes, you can do that. By simply returning from the handler. And the background job you want to do, you should put that on a new goroutine.
Note that the connection and/or request may be put back into a pool, but that is irrelevant, the client will see that serving the request ended. You achieve what you want.
Something like this:
