It provides a simple, yet powerful way to create solutions that incorporate multiple, different hardware devices at the same time. Want to use Javascript robotics? Check out our sister project Cylon.js (http://cylonjs.com/) Want to use Ruby on robots? Check out our sister project Artoo (http://artoo.io) ## Getting Started Get the Gobot source with: `go get -d -u gobot.io/x/gobot/...` ## Examples #### Gobot with Arduino ```go package main import ( "time" "gobot.io/x/gobot" "gobot.io/x/gobot/drivers/gpio" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata" ) func main() { firmataAdaptor := firmata.NewAdaptor("/dev/ttyACM0") led := gpio.NewLedDriver(firmataAdaptor, "13") work := func() { gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() { led.Toggle() }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("bot", []gobot.Connection{firmataAdaptor}, []gobot.Device{led}, work, ) robot.Start() } ``` #### Gobot with Sphero ```go package main import ( "fmt" "time" "gobot.io/x/gobot" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/sphero" ) func main() { adaptor := sphero.NewAdaptor("/dev/rfcomm0") driver := sphero.NewSpheroDriver(adaptor) work := func() { gobot.Every(3*time.Second, func() { driver.Roll(30, uint16(gobot.Rand(360))) }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("sphero", []gobot.Connection{adaptor}, []gobot.Device{driver}, work, ) robot.Start() } ``` #### "Metal" Gobot You can use the entire Gobot framework as shown in the examples above ("Classic" Gobot), or you can pick and choose from the various Gobot packages to control hardware with nothing but pure idiomatic Golang code ("Metal" Gobot). For example: ```go package main import ( "gobot.io/x/gobot/drivers/gpio" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/intel-iot/edison" "time" ) func main() { e := edison.NewAdaptor() e.Connect() led := gpio.NewLedDriver(e, "13") led.Start() for { led.Toggle() time.Sleep(1000 * time.Millisecond) } } ``` #### "Master" Gobot You can also use the full capabilities of the framework aka "Master Gobot" to control swarms of robots or other features such as the built-in API server. For example: ```go package main import ( "fmt" "time" "gobot.io/x/gobot" "gobot.io/x/gobot/api" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/sphero" ) func NewSwarmBot(port string) *gobot.Robot { spheroAdaptor := sphero.NewAdaptor(port) spheroDriver := sphero.NewSpheroDriver(spheroAdaptor) spheroDriver.SetName("Sphero" + port) work := func() { spheroDriver.Stop() spheroDriver.On(sphero.Collision, func(data interface{}) { fmt.Println("Collision Detected!") }) gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() { spheroDriver.Roll(100, uint16(gobot.Rand(360))) }) gobot.Every(3*time.Second, func() { spheroDriver.SetRGB(uint8(gobot.Rand(255)), uint8(gobot.Rand(255)), uint8(gobot.Rand(255)), ) }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("sphero", []gobot.Connection{spheroAdaptor}, []gobot.Device{spheroDriver}, work, ) return robot } func main() { master := gobot.NewMaster() api.NewAPI(master).Start() spheros := []string{ "/dev/rfcomm0", "/dev/rfcomm1", "/dev/rfcomm2", "/dev/rfcomm3", } for _, port := range spheros { master.AddRobot(NewSwarmBot(port)) } master.Start() } ``` ## Hardware Support Gobot has a extensible system for connecting to hardware devices.

To activate the API, import the `gobot.io/x/gobot/api` package and instantiate the `API` like this: ```go master := gobot.NewMaster() api.NewAPI(master).Start() ``` You can also specify the api host and port, and turn on authentication: ```go master := gobot.NewMaster() server := api.NewAPI(master) server.Port = "4000" server.AddHandler(api.BasicAuth("gort", "klatuu")) server.Start() ``` You may access the [robeaux](https://github.com/hybridgroup/robeaux) React.js interface with Gobot by navigating to `http://localhost:3000/index.html`. ## CLI Gobot uses the Gort [http://gort.io](http://gort.io) Command Line Interface (CLI) so you can access important features right from the command line. We call it "RobotOps", aka "DevOps For Robotics". You can scan, connect, update device firmware, and more! Gobot also has its own CLI to generate new platforms, adaptors, and drivers. You can check it out in the `/cli` directory. ## Documentation We're busy adding documentation to our web site at http://gobot.io/ please check there as we continue to work on Gobot Thank you! ## Need help? * Join our mailing list: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/gobotio * Issues: https://github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/issues * twitter: [@gobotio](https://twitter.com/gobotio) ## Contributing For our contribution guidelines, please go to [https://github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md ](https://github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md ). ## License Copyright (c) 2013-2017 The Hybrid Group.
