如何获取http.ListenAndServe的地址

Say I start a server like so:

srv := http.Server{
    Addr:    ":0",
    Handler: http.FileServer(http.Dir(".")),
}
go srv.ListenAndServe()
log.Printf("Listening on ???")

How can I tell which port was picked? :0 is designed to pick a random ephemeral port by the OS, but I need to know which one was picked.

NOTE: I would prefer not to create my own listener and use srv.Listen(ln), since srv.ListenAndServe() has a good default (but unexported) listener that I want to use.

Why not? ListenAndServe() is extremely simple to implement yourself. You can read the source code for it yourself:

func (srv *Server) ListenAndServe() error {
    addr := srv.Addr
    if addr == "" {
        addr = ":http"
    }
    ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", addr)
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }
    return srv.Serve(tcpKeepAliveListener{ln.(*net.TCPListener)})
}

The answer is that you will need to use write your own ListenAndServe() that gives you the information you want. It is much easier than you believe however. The entire thing isn't more than 20 lines (assuming you want to set keep-alives with tcpKeepAliveListener).

You can select a free port before configuring the server address. The simpler way to get a free port is to create a listener, so you can obtain the same result following Stephen suggestion.

func GetFreePort() (int, error) {
    ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":0")
    if err != nil {
        return 0, err
    }
    err = ln.Close()
    if err != nil {
        return 0, err
    }
    return ln.Addr().(*net.TCPAddr).Port, nil
}
