Today let’s look at re-implementing our non-iterating grep function using a channel for iteration. First the code: func grep(r io.Reader, pattern string) (chan <- string, error) { re, err := regexp.Parse(pattern) if err != nil { return nil, err } matches := make(chan string) go func() { defer close(matches) scanner := bufio.NewScanner(r) var matches []string for scanner.Scan() { line := scanner.Text() if re.MatchString(line) { matches <- line } } if err := scanner.
