Simple TCP proxy in Golang

proxy.go

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"encoding/hex"
	"flag"
	"fmt"
	"io"
	"log"
	"net"
)

var localAddr *string = flag.String("l", "localhost:9999", "local address")
var remoteAddr *string = flag.String("r", "localhost:80", "remote address")

func proxyConn(conn *net.TCPConn) {
	rAddr, err := net.ResolveTCPAddr("tcp", *remoteAddr)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	rConn, err := net.DialTCP("tcp", nil, rAddr)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer rConn.Close()

	buf := &bytes.Buffer{}
	for {
		data := make([]byte, 256)
		n, err := conn.Read(data)
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		buf.Write(data[:n])
		if data[0] == 13 && data[1] == 10 {
			break
		}
	}

	if _, err := rConn.Write(buf.Bytes()); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	log.Printf("sent:\n%v", hex.Dump(buf.Bytes()))

	data := make([]byte, 1024)
	n, err := rConn.Read(data)
	if err != nil {
		if err != io.EOF {
			panic(err)
		} else {
			log.Printf("received err: %v", err)
		}
	}
	log.Printf("received:\n%v", hex.Dump(data[:n]))
}

func handleConn(in <-chan *net.TCPConn, out chan<- *net.TCPConn) {
	for conn := range in {
		proxyConn(conn)
		out <- conn
	}
}

func closeConn(in <-chan *net.TCPConn) {
	for conn := range in {
		conn.Close()
	}
}

func main() {
	flag.Parse()

	fmt.Printf("Listening: %v\nProxying: %v\n\n", *localAddr, *remoteAddr)

	addr, err := net.ResolveTCPAddr("tcp", *localAddr)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	listener, err := net.ListenTCP("tcp", addr)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	pending, complete := make(chan *net.TCPConn), make(chan *net.TCPConn)

	for i := 0; i < 5; i++ {
		go handleConn(pending, complete)
	}
	go closeConn(complete)

	for {
		conn, err := listener.AcceptTCP()
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		pending <- conn
	}
}

fyi, here is a much simpler version:

package main

import (
	"flag"
	"fmt"
	"io"
	"log"
	"net"
)

var localAddr *string = flag.String("l", "localhost:9999", "local address")
var remoteAddr *string = flag.String("r", "localhost:80", "remote address")

func main() {
	flag.Parse()
	fmt.Printf("Listening: %v\nProxying: %v\n\n", *localAddr, *remoteAddr)

	listener, err := net.Listen("tcp", *localAddr)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	for {
		conn, err := listener.Accept()
		log.Println("New connection", conn.RemoteAddr())
		if err != nil {
			log.Println("error accepting connection", err)
			continue
		}
		go func() {
			defer conn.Close()
			conn2, err := net.Dial("tcp", *remoteAddr)
			if err != nil {
				log.Println("error dialing remote addr", err)
				return
			}
			defer conn2.Close()
			closer := make(chan struct{}, 2)
			go copy(closer, conn2, conn)
			go copy(closer, conn, conn2)
			<-closer
			log.Println("Connection complete", conn.RemoteAddr())
		}()
	}
}

func copy(closer chan struct{}, dst io.Writer, src io.Reader) {
	_, _ = io.Copy(dst, src)
	closer <- struct{}{} // connection is closed, send signal to stop proxy
}

edit: There was a bug in the first version. Now when either connection is closed it will shut down the entire proxy

Also added this here: https://github.com/maxmcd/tcp-proxy

If you want to print the data in console for debugging pupose,

func copy(closer chan struct{}, dst io.Writer, src io.Reader) {
	io.Copy(os.Stdout, io.TeeReader(src, dst))
	closer <- struct{}{} // connection is closed, send signal to stop proxy
}

If I want to be before io.Copy(os.Stdout, io.TeeReader(src, dst)) print the data in console for debugging pupose，what I can do
