Hi there,
A couple of months ago I saw the RCL concept for wrapping ROS2 in different languages. As I recently started learning go, I thought it would be great to have that library available in this language.
Unfortunately, there weren’t any repositories on github doing that so I decided to do it by myself:
https://github.com/juaruipav/rclgo
Current implementation covers approximately 75% of the rcl functionality (it is not totally functional yet). The most difficult part is the type binding. I plan to use a code generator to bind directly the C types definitions.
Any thoughts about it? Any suggestions? There are many good features from go (goroutines, reflection, interfaces…) that could result really interesting when working on robotics.
Best Regards!
