Go by Example https://gobyexample.com/signals
package main import ( "fmt" "os" "os/signal" "syscall" ) func main() { sigs := make(chan os.Signal, 1) signal.Notify(sigs, syscall.SIGINT, syscall.SIGTERM) done := make(chan bool, 1) go func() { sig := <-sigs fmt.Println() fmt.Println(sig) done <- true }() fmt.Println("awaiting signal") <-done fmt.Println("exiting") }
Another Example:
package main import ( "fmt" "os" "os/signal" "syscall" "time" ) func main() { osSignalChannel := make(chan os.Signal, 1) signal.Notify(osSignalChannel, syscall.SIGINT, syscall.SIGTERM) msgChannel := make(chan string) go func() { for { //wait on a message from a channel select { case signal := <-osSignalChannel: fmt.Println(signal) //call shutdown msgChannel <- "shutdown" case msg := <-msgChannel: fmt.Println("s: Received message:", msg) if msg == "shutdown" { fmt.Println("s: Cleaning up") //sleep time.Sleep(time.Second * 30) fmt.Println() fmt.Println("s: Shutting down") //notify shutdown msgChannel <- "shutdown" return } else { fmt.Println("s: Received message:", msg, " ignoring...") } } } }() time.Sleep(time.Second * 1) //sens bogus message fmt.Println("m: Sending bogus message") msgChannel <- "bogus" time.Sleep(time.Second * 5) //send shutdown fmt.Println("m: Sending shutdown message") msgChannel <- "shutdown" fmt.Println("m: Waiting for response message") response := <-msgChannel fmt.Println("m: Response: ", response) fmt.Println("m: Exiting") }
Another Example
package main import ( "fmt" "os" "os/signal" "syscall" "time" ) func main() { //create channel that can receive OS signals ch := make(chan os.Signal) //Submit channel to the notify signal signal.Notify(ch, syscall.SIGTERM, syscall.SIGINT) //a go function to monitor signals in the background go func() { for sig := range ch { switch sig { case syscall.SIGTERM: fmt.Println("sigterm received') os.Exit(0) case syscall.SIGINT: fmt.Println("sigint received') oS.Exit(0) } } }() time.Sleep(time.Minute) }
