The truncated anatomy of the net.Conn interface
// Conn is a generic stream-oriented network connection.
// Comments truncated for brevity
type Conn interface {
Read(b []byte) (n int, err error)
Write(b []byte) (n int, err error)
Close() error

Created May 13, 2019 04:56
This is an example of how you can perform a low-level read using file descriptors in go. This will build a knowledge of how file descriptors work and will allow us to understand network connections a bit better
package main
import (
"log"
"syscall"
)
func main() {
//Open File to Retrieve Handler
fd, err := syscall.Open("<absolute-path-to-file>", syscall.O_RDWR, 755)

Open file is a private function that showcases how Go Opens a file under the hood.
// Code Snippet 1
// os/file_windows.go
func openFile(name string, flag int, perm FileMode) (file *File, err error) {
r, e := syscall.Open(fixLongPath(name), flag|syscall.O_CLOEXEC, syscallMode(perm))
if e != nil {
return nil, e
}
return newFile(r, name, "file"), nil
}

How to create a Google Compute Engine Instance using REST calls in Golang.
func CreateGCEInstance() {
//STEP 1 - INIT DATA - Add all your initialization data e.g. projectid, zones, accessTokens.

zone := "<your-zone-here>" //e.g. europe-west1-d
accessToken := "" ////retrieve from https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground/ select relevant compute engine scopes e.g. devstorage/read_write and auth/compute
endpoint := fmt.Sprintf("https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/%s/zones/%s/instances", project, zone)

//Create a REST representation of whats required. see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/instances/insert

This is an improvement to our simple server we created earlier. It now supports more than 1 simultaneous connections.
