GoGWave

The gogwave package provides Go language bindings for the ggwave C++ library.

Note: At the moment, gogwave supports linux systems only.

For further detail see the GoDocs

How to use

This example encodes a payload ([]byte) into a waveform, stores the waveform as a .wav file, and decodes the waveform back into a payload.

func main() {
	gg := New()
	defer gg.Close()

	waveform, err := gg.Encode([]byte("hola"), ProtocolAudibleNormal, 50)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	b, err := gg.Decode(waveform)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	payload := string(b)
    fmt.Println("payload:", payload)
}
