Golang program after making Get request returns HTTP Status code 503 or pending


I try to get csv data from kibana server by making get request. After this server send me response with data which i write the csv file and save somewhere.
Every time csv file with single line "pending" inside.
Kibana logs shows Status code 503
But if i put url in browser i can get csv file with correct data.
Probably i need to wait more for response from kibana.
From my perspective the problem is next: server can send me the response with single line "pending" which means that it needs more time for preparing right response.
I tried to increase client time but it doesn't work as well

client := http.Client{
    Timeout: 10 * time.Second,
}

The Idea with go routines and channels/wait group was next: they force Get request to wait for getting right data instead of "pending" and 503 status code

Screenshot that shows that i can get data by typing url path to the browser https://i.sstatic.net/aPVEK.png

Update:
I try to call my function recursively. But it is bad solution even if it's working now.

    case 503:
        getCsvFile(urlKibanaBase, pathCsvFile)

Solution

  • Kibana Server needs some time to prepare response. I've added a bit of code for signaling the channel to wait some time and after waiting repeat request to client

    if res.StatusCode != 200 {
                        time.Sleep(30 * time.Second)
                    }
