AnimatedLEDStrip Client Library for Go

This library allows a Go client to communicate with an AnimatedLEDStrip server.

Using the Library in a Project

The library can be downloaded with:

go get github.com/AnimatedLEDStrip/client-go

Creating an ALSHttpClient

To create a HTTP client, run ALSHttpClient(ipAddress).

import als "github.com/AnimatedLEDStrip/client-go"

client := als.ALSHttpClient("10.0.0.254")

Communicating with the Server

This library follows the conventions laid out for AnimatedLEDStrip client libraries, with the following modifications:

• Function names and struct variables are capitalized because of how Go denotes exported identifiers
• DegreesRotation and RadiansRotation are constructors for the rotation struct, which uses the RotationType variable to track which type it is
• AbsoluteDistance and PercentDistance are constructors for the distance struct, which uses the DistanceType variable to track which type it is
• ColorContainer and PreparedColorContainer have a ContainerType variable that works similarly to above, though the structs are different
• The colors parameter for an AnimationToRunParams struct only accepts ColorContainers
• The default parameter for an AnimationParameter hasn't been figured out yet
