Péter Szilágyi 289b30715d Godeps, vendor: convert dependency management to trash (#3198)
This commit converts the dependency management from Godeps to the vendor
folder, also switching the tool from godep to trash. Since the upstream tool
lacks a few features proposed via a few PRs, until those PRs are merged in
(if), use github.com/karalabe/trash.

You can update dependencies via trash --update.

All dependencies have been updated to their latest version.

Parts of the build system are reworked to drop old notions of Godeps and
invocation of the go vet command so that it doesn't run against the vendor
folder, as that will just blow up during vetting.

The conversion drops OpenCL (and hence GPU mining support) from ethash and our
codebase. The short reasoning is that there's noone to maintain and having
opencl libs in our deps messes up builds as go install ./... tries to build
them, failing with unsatisfied link errors for the C OpenCL deps.

golang.org/x/net/context is not vendored in. We expect it to be fetched by the
user (i.e. using go get). To keep ci.go builds reproducible the package is
"vendored" in build/_vendor.

# XHandler
[![godoc](http://img.shields.io/badge/godoc-reference-blue.svg?style=flat)](https://godoc.org/github.com/rs/xhandler) [![license](http://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-red.svg?style=flat)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rs/xhandler/master/LICENSE) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/rs/xhandler.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/rs/xhandler) [![Coverage](http://gocover.io/_badge/github.com/rs/xhandler)](http://gocover.io/github.com/rs/xhandler)
XHandler is a bridge between [net/context](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/net/context) and `http.Handler`.
It lets you enforce `net/context` in your handlers without sacrificing compatibility with existing `http.Handlers` nor imposing a specific router.
Thanks to `net/context` deadline management, `xhandler` is able to enforce a per request deadline and will cancel the context when the client closes the connection unexpectedly.
You may create your own `net/context` aware handler pretty much the same way as you would do with http.Handler.
Read more about xhandler on [Dailymotion engineering blog](http://engineering.dailymotion.com/our-way-to-go/).
## Installing
go get -u github.com/rs/xhandler
## Usage
```go
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"time"
"github.com/rs/cors"
"github.com/rs/xhandler"
"golang.org/x/net/context"
)
type myMiddleware struct {
next xhandler.HandlerC
}
func (h myMiddleware) ServeHTTPC(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
ctx = context.WithValue(ctx, "test", "World")
h.next.ServeHTTPC(ctx, w, r)
}
func main() {
c := xhandler.Chain{}
// Add close notifier handler so context is cancelled when the client closes
// the connection
c.UseC(xhandler.CloseHandler)
// Add timeout handler
c.UseC(xhandler.TimeoutHandler(2 * time.Second))
// Middleware putting something in the context
c.UseC(func(next xhandler.HandlerC) xhandler.HandlerC {
return myMiddleware{next: next}
})
// Mix it with a non-context-aware middleware handler
c.Use(cors.Default().Handler)
// Final handler (using handlerFuncC), reading from the context
xh := xhandler.HandlerFuncC(func(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
value := ctx.Value("test").(string)
w.Write([]byte("Hello " + value))
})
// Bridge context aware handlers with http.Handler using xhandler.Handle()
http.Handle("/test", c.Handler(xh))
if err := http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
```
### Using xmux
Xhandler comes with an optional context aware [muxer](https://github.com/rs/xmux) forked from [httprouter](https://github.com/julienschmidt/httprouter):
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"net/http"
"time"
"github.com/rs/xhandler"
"github.com/rs/xmux"
"golang.org/x/net/context"
)
func main() {
c := xhandler.Chain{}
// Append a context-aware middleware handler
c.UseC(xhandler.CloseHandler)
// Another context-aware middleware handler
c.UseC(xhandler.TimeoutHandler(2 * time.Second))
mux := xmux.New()
// Use c.Handler to terminate the chain with your final handler
mux.GET("/welcome/:name", xhandler.HandlerFuncC(func(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
fmt.Fprintf(w, "Welcome %s!", xmux.Params(ctx).Get("name"))
}))
if err := http.ListenAndServe(":8080", c.Handler(mux)); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
```
See [xmux](https://github.com/rs/xmux) for more examples.
## Context Aware Middleware
Here is a list of `net/context` aware middleware handlers implementing `xhandler.HandlerC` interface.
