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.

Get the Gobot source with: go get -d -u gobot.io/x/gobot/...
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()
}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()
}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:
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)
}
}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:
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()

More platforms and drivers are coming soon...
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, import the gobot.io/x/gobot/api package and instantiate the API like this:
master := gobot.NewMaster()
api.NewAPI(master).Start()You can also specify the api host and port, and turn on authentication:
master := gobot.NewMaster()
server := api.NewAPI(master)
server.Port = "4000"
server.AddHandler(api.BasicAuth("gort", "klatuu"))
server.Start()You may access the robeaux React.js interface with Gobot by navigating to http://localhost:3000/index.html.
Gobot uses the Gort 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.
We're always adding documentation to our web site at http://gobot.io/ please check there as we continue to work on Gobot
