Overview ¶
Package gobot provides a framework for robotics, physical computing and the internet of things. It is the main point of entry for your Gobot application. A Gobot program is typically composed of one or more robots that makes up a project.
Basic Setup
package main import ( "fmt" "time" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { gbot := gobot.NewGobot() robot := gobot.NewRobot("Eve", func() { gobot.Every(500*time.Millisecond, func() { fmt.Println("Greeting Human") }) }) gbot.AddRobot(robot) gbot.Start() }
Blinking an LED (Hello Eve!)
package main import ( "time" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/firmata" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/gpio" ) func main() { gbot := gobot.NewGobot() firmataAdaptor := firmata.NewFirmataAdaptor("arduino", "/dev/ttyACM0") led := gpio.NewLedDriver(firmataAdaptor, "led", "13") work := func() { gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() { led.Toggle() }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("Eve", []gobot.Connection{firmataAdaptor}, []gobot.Device{led}, work, ) gbot.AddRobot(robot) gbot.Start() }
Web Enabled? You bet! Gobot can be configured to expose a restful HTTP interface using the api package. You can define custom commands on your robots, in addition to the built-in device driver commands, and interact with your application as a web service.
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/api" ) func main() { gbot := gobot.NewGobot() // Starts the API server on default port 3000 api.NewAPI(gbot).Start() // Accessible via http://localhost:3000/api/commands/say_hello gbot.AddCommand("say_hello", func(params map[string]interface{}) interface{} { return "Master says hello!" }) hello := gbot.AddRobot(gobot.NewRobot("Eve")) // Accessible via http://localhost:3000/robots/Eve/commands/say_hello hello.AddCommand("say_hello", func(params map[string]interface{}) interface{} { return fmt.Sprintf("%v says hello!", hello.Name) }) gbot.Start() }

Variables ¶
var ( // ErrUnknownEvent is the error resulting if the specified Event does not exist ErrUnknownEvent = errors.New("Event does not exist") )
Functions ¶
func After ¶
After triggers f after t duration.
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "time" ) func main() { gobot.After(1*time.Second, func() { fmt.Println("Hello") }) }
Output:
func Assert ¶
Assert checks if a and b are equal, emis a t.Errorf if they are not equal.
Example ¶
package main import ( "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "testing" ) func main() { t := &testing.T{} var a int = 100 var b int = 100 gobot.Assert(t, a, b) }
Output:
func Every ¶
Every triggers f every t time until the end of days. It does not wait for the previous execution of f to finish before it fires the next f.
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "time" ) func main() { gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() { fmt.Println("Hello") }) }
Output:
func FromScale ¶
FromScale returns a converted input from min, max to 0.0...1.0.
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { fmt.Println(gobot.FromScale(5, 0, 10)) }
Output: 0.5
func On ¶
On executes f when e is Published to. Returns ErrUnknownEvent if Event does not exist.
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { e := gobot.NewEvent() gobot.On(e, func(s interface{}) { fmt.Println(s) }) gobot.Publish(e, 100) gobot.Publish(e, 200) }
Output:
func Once ¶
Once is similar to On except that it only executes f one time. Returns ErrUnknownEvent if Event does not exist.
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { e := gobot.NewEvent() gobot.Once(e, func(s interface{}) { fmt.Println(s) fmt.Println("I will no longer respond to events") }) gobot.Publish(e, 100) gobot.Publish(e, 200) }
Output:
func Publish ¶
Publish emits val to all subscribers of e. Returns ErrUnknownEvent if Event does not exist.
Example ¶
package main import ( "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { e := gobot.NewEvent() gobot.Publish(e, 100) }
Output:
func Rand ¶
Rand returns a positive random int up to max
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { i := gobot.Rand(100) fmt.Sprintln("%v is > 0 && < 100", i) }
Output:
func Refute ¶
Refute checks if a and b are equal, emis a t.Errorf if they are equal.
Example ¶
package main import ( "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" "testing" ) func main() { t := &testing.T{} var a int = 100 var b int = 200 gobot.Refute(t, a, b) }
Output:
func ToScale ¶
ToScale returns a converted input from 0...1 to min...max scale. If input is less than min then ToScale returns min. If input is greater than max then ToScale returns max
Example ¶
package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/hybridgroup/gobot" ) func main() { fmt.Println(gobot.ToScale(500, 0, 10)) }
Output: 10
