go-gst

Go bindings for the gstreamer C library

See the godoc.org or pkg.go.dev references for documentation and examples. As the latter requires published tags, see godoc.org for the latest documentation of master at any point in time.

For more examples see the examples folder here and command line implementation here.

Requirements

For building applications with this library you need the following:

• cgo: You must set CGO_ENABLED=1 in your environment when building.
• gcc and pkg-config
• libgstreamer-1.0-dev: This package name may be different depending on your OS. You need the gst.h header files.
  • In some distributions (such as alpine linux) this is in the gstreamer-dev package.
• To use the pbutils, app, gstauto/app packages you will need additional dependencies:
  • libgstreamer-app-1.0-dev: This package name may also be different depending on your os. You need the gstappsink.h and gstappsrc.h
    • In some distributions (such as alpine linux) this is in the gst-plugins-base-dev package.
    • In Ubuntu this is in libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0.
• You may need platform specific headers also. For example, in alpine linux, you will most likely also need the musl-dev package.

For running applications with this library you'll need to have libgstreamer-1.0 installed. Again, this package may be different depending on your OS.
