Cocoa bindings for the Go language

Is it possible to write macOS/Cocoa applications in Google Go?

Is there a Go-Obj-C bridge? (it seems to me that Obj-C dynamism would be a great fit for Golang's interfaces)

Can I at least link the two together and make them talk to each other via plain-old C functions?

Solution

  • You can have a look at my blog post as an example. I'm afraid I didn't keep working on it, but here's the source code that can help you setting up a bare Cocoa/ObjC/Go project.

    You're gonna be able to do something like this, as mentioned in the README.

    package main

import (
  "github.com/alediaferia/gogoa"
)

func main() {
    app := gogoa.SharedApplication()
    window := gogoa.NewWindow(0, 0, 200, 200)
    window.SetTitle("Gogoga!")
    window.MakeKeyAndOrderFront()

    app.Run()
}
