NOTICE:

(since 2021/03/27) current gotk3_gtksource version comply with new gotk3 requirements, (that mean gotk3 version must be > 0.5.2) so you have to use Go bindings for GTK3 @ master from gotk3 repository instead of Release GOTK3 Version 0.5.2.

Adding Go Modules support, which will be mandatory with the usage of go v1.17.

We plan to drop support for GOPATH mode in Go 1.17. In other words, Go 1.17 will ignore GO111MODULE. If you have projects that do not build in module-aware mode, now is the time to migrate. If there is a problem preventing you from migrating, please consider filing an issue or an experience report.

Golang GtkSourceView binding for use with gotk3

All this project was made under MIT license *

This repository must be used with gotk3: Go bindings for GTK3 only.

• Example of GtkSourceView usage in Go: SourceViewSimpleExample
• More complex example in Go: SourceViewExample

---

installation:

• Ubuntu linux only ** see at bottom why.
• Designed to be used with gtk3 >= 3.16 and gtksourceview >=3.18-4
• Be sure you have latest gotk3 installed correctly and working right.
• Use classic command: go get github.com/hfmrow/gotk3_gtksource/source for current Gtk3 v3.24, (Ubuntu focal). See below for specific versions.
• Golang GtkSourceView follows the same rules as gotk3 for compiling different versions of gtksourceview.

Information about libgtksourceview versions:

(*) Why the MIT license, simply because the ISC license type is not available in the repository creation choices. This repository is designed in the spirit of the original definition of the gotk3 LICENSE before this one.

(**) Why Ubuntu Linux only ... because i really don't know how to explain and deploy it on window, darwin and other Linux distros, i'm sorry. If you are able to doing that, you're welcome. All information are available at Ubuntu - libgtksourceview. Theoretically, sourceview 4 may work on amd64 arm64 armhf i386 ppc64el s390x, sourceview 3.0 amd64 arm64 armhf i386 powerpc ppc64el s390x both depending on OS version.
