Entrypoint
The entrypoint package provides the main HTTP entry point for GoDoxy, handling domain-based routing, middleware application, short link matching, access logging, and HTTP server lifecycle management.
Overview
The entrypoint package implements the primary HTTP handler that receives all incoming requests, manages the lifecycle of HTTP servers, determines the target route based on hostname, applies middleware, and forwards requests to the appropriate route handler.
Key Features
- Domain-based route lookup with subdomain support
- Short link (
go/<alias>domain) handling - Middleware chain application
- Access logging for all requests
- Configurable not-found handling
- Per-domain route resolution
- HTTP server management (HTTP/HTTPS)
- Route pool abstractions via
PoolLikeandRWPoolLikeinterfaces
Primary Consumers
- HTTP servers: Per-listen-addr servers dispatch requests to routes
- Route providers: Register routes via
StartAddRoute - Configuration layer: Validates and applies middleware/access-logging config
Non-goals
- Does not implement route discovery (delegates to providers)
- Does not handle TLS certificate management (delegates to autocert)
- Does not implement health checks (delegates to
internal/health/monitor) - Does not manage TCP/UDP listeners directly (only HTTP/HTTPS via
goutils/server)
Stability
Internal package with stable core interfaces. The Entrypoint interface is the public contract.

Route Registry
Routes are managed per-entrypoint:
// Adding a route (main entry point for providers)
if err := ep.StartAddRoute(route); err != nil {
return err
}
// Iterating all routes including excluded
ep.IterRoutes(func(r types.Route) bool {
log.Info().Str("alias", r.Name()).Msg("route")
return true // continue iteration
})
// Querying by alias
route, ok := ep.GetRoute("myapp")
// Grouping by provider
byProvider := ep.RoutesByProvider()

Metrics
Route metrics exposed via GetHealthInfo methods:
// Health info for all routes
healthMap := ep.GetHealthInfo()
// {
// "myapp": {Status: "healthy", Uptime: 3600, Latency: 5ms},
// "excluded-route": {Status: "unknown", Detail: "n/a"},
// }
Security Considerations
- Route lookup is read-only from route pools
- Middleware chain is applied per-request
- Proxy protocol support must be explicitly enabled
- Access logger captures request metadata before processing
- Short link matching is limited to configured domains
Failure Modes and Recovery
| Failure | Behavior | Recovery |
|---|---|---|
| Server bind fails | Error returned, route not added | Fix port/address conflict |
| Route start fails | Route excluded, error logged | Fix route configuration |
| Middleware load fails | SetMiddlewares returns error | Fix middleware configuration |
| Context cancelled | All servers stopped gracefully | Restart entrypoint |
Usage Examples
Basic Setup
ep := entrypoint.NewEntrypoint(parent, &entrypoint.Config{
SupportProxyProtocol: false,
})
// Configure domain matching
ep.SetFindRouteDomains([]string{".example.com", "example.com"})
// Configure middleware
err := ep.SetMiddlewares([]map[string]any{
{"rate_limit": map[string]any{"requests_per_second": 100}},
})
if err != nil {
return err
}
// Configure access logging
err = ep.SetAccessLogger(parent, &accesslog.RequestLoggerConfig{
Path: "/var/log/godoxy/access.log",
})
if err != nil {
return err
}
Route Querying
// Iterate all routes including excluded
ep.IterRoutes(func(r types.Route) bool {
log.Info().
Str("alias", r.Name()).
Str("provider", r.ProviderName()).
Bool("excluded", r.ShouldExclude()).
Msg("route")
return true // continue iteration
})
// Get health info for all routes
healthMap := ep.GetHealthInfoSimple()
for alias, status := range healthMap {
log.Info().Str("alias", alias).Str("status", string(status)).Msg("health")
}
Route Addition
Routes are typically added by providers via StartAddRoute:
// StartAddRoute handles route registration and server creation
if err := ep.StartAddRoute(route); err != nil {
return err
}
Context Integration
Routes can access the entrypoint from request context:
// Set entrypoint in context (typically during initialization)
entrypoint.SetCtx(task, ep)
// Get entrypoint from context
if ep := entrypoint.FromCtx(r.Context()); ep != nil {
route, ok := ep.GetRoute("alias")
}
