[![Gobot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hybridgroup/gobot-site/master/source/images/elements/gobot-logo-small.png)](http://gobot.io/)
Gobot (http://gobot.io/) is a framework using the Go programming language (http://golang.org/) for robotics, physical computing, and the Internet of Things.
It provides a simple, yet powerful way to create solutions that incorporate multiple, different hardware devices at the same time.

## Getting Started
Get the Gobot source with: `go get -d -u github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/...`
## Examples
#### Gobot with Arduino
```go
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("bot",
[]gobot.Connection{firmataAdaptor},
[]gobot.Device{led},
work,
)
gbot.AddRobot(robot)
gbot.Start()
}
```
#### Gobot with Sphero
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
"github.com/hybridgroup/gobot"
"github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/sphero"
)
func main() {
gbot := gobot.NewGobot()
adaptor := sphero.NewSpheroAdaptor("sphero", "/dev/rfcomm0")
driver := sphero.NewSpheroDriver(adaptor, "sphero")
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,
)
gbot.AddRobot(robot)
gbot.Start()
}
```

## API:
Gobot includes a RESTful API to query the status of any robot running within a group, including the connection and device status, and execute device commands.
To activate the API, require the `github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/api` package and instantiate the `API` like this:
```go
gbot := gobot.NewGobot()
api.NewAPI(gbot).Start()
```
You can also specify the api host and port, and turn on authentication:
```go
gbot := gobot.NewGobot()
server := api.NewAPI(gbot)
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`.
