go-webfinger
go-webfinger is a golang webfinger server implementation. See v1.0 for the latest stable version, and our Code.as repo for the Write.as-specific implementation.
Past v1.0, this fork was made especially for federation support on Write.as, which includes users across write.as, *.writeas.com, and custom domains we host. The master
branch contains changes specific to our implementation, and will change without notification.
Usage
webfinger.Service
is implemented as a net/http handler, which means
usage is simply registering the object with your http service.
Using the webfinger service as the main ServeHTTP:
myResolver = ...
wf := webfinger.Default(myResolver{})
wf.NotFoundHandler = // the rest of your app
http.ListenAndService(":8080", wf)
Using the webfinger service as a route on an existing HTTP router:
myResolver = ...
wf := webfinger.Default(myResolver{})
http.Handle(webfinger.WebFingerPath, http.HandlerFunc(wf.Webfinger))
http.ListenAndService(":8080", nil)
Defaults
The webfinger service is installed with a few defaults. Some of these defaults ensure we stick closely to the webfinger specification (tls-only, CORS, Content-Type) and other defaults are simply useful for development (no-cache)
The full list of defaults can be found in the godoc for webfinger.Service
. They are exposed
as public variables which can be overriden.
PreHandlers
are the list of preflight HTTP handlers to run. You can add your own via wf.PreHandlers["my-custom-name"] = ...
, however,
execution order is not guaranteed.
TLS-Only
Handler which routes to the TLS version of the page. Disable via wf.NoTLSHandler = nil
.
No-Cache
A PreFlight handler which sets no-cache headers on anything under /.well-known/webfinger
. Disable or override via wf.PreHandlers[webfinger.NoCacheMiddleware]
Content Type as application/jrd+json
A PreFlight handler which sets the Content-Type to application/jrd+json
. Disable or override via wf.PreHandlers[webfinger.ContentTypeMiddleware]
.
CORS
A PreFlight handler which adds the CORS headers. Disable or override via wf.PreHandlers[webfinger.CorsMiddleware].
