Simple Web Server in Go

You can create a simple web server in go using "net/http" package. In which you can use http.HandleFunc() to handle your request.

package main

import(
    "fmt"
    "net/http"
)

func hello(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
    name := req.URL.Query().Get("name")
    message := fmt.Sprintf("Hello %s", name)
    byteResponse := []byte(message)
    w.Write(byteResponse)
}

func main() {
    pattern := "/hello"
    http.HandleFunc(pattern, hello)
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}
