At my company we have a pattern of passing in parent context into our http handlers. Currently we are passing in parentContext into methods in the handler that need them db.Query(parentCtx...).
My question is should we be using the gin Context or the gin Request context here instead.

CodePudding user response：

If you want to terminate processing if the connection is closed, use the Request.Context. Based on the documentation for Done:

Done always returns nil (chan which will wait forever), if you want to abort your work when the connection was closed you should use Request.Context().Done() instead.
