A library for build scripts to compile go Code. It's like the cc crate for go.

Add this library as a build-dependency in Cargo.toml:

[build-dependencies]
gobuild = "0.1.0-alpha.1"

Examples

Use the Build struct to compile hello.go:

fn main() {
    gobuild::Build::new()
        .file("hello.go")
        .compile("foo");
}

This will generate a libhello.h and libhello.a in OUT_DIR.

Consider combining this with bindgen to generate a Rust wrapper for the header.

gobuild

A library to compile go code into a Rust library/application. This library takes inspiration from the cc crate.

Using gobuild

First, you'll want to both add a build script for your crate (build.rs) and also add this crate to your Cargo.toml via:

[build-dependencies]
gobuild = "0.1.0-alpha.1"

Next, update the build.rs to something like:

// build.rs

fn main() {
    gobuild::Build::new()
        .file("hello.go")
        .compile("hello");
}

This will produce a libhello.h and libhello.a in OUT_DIR.
