pifke.org/wpasupplicant

Golang interface for talking to wpa_supplicant.

At the moment, this simply provides an interface for fetching wifi scan results. More functionality (probably) coming soon.

Example

import (
	"fmt"

	"pifke.org/wpasupplicant"
)

// Prints the BSSID (MAC address) and SSID of each access point in range:
w, err := wpasupplicant.Unixgram("wlan0")
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
for _, bss := range w.ScanResults() {
	fmt.Fprintf("%s\t%s\n", bss.BSSID(), bss.SSID())
}

Downloading

If you use this library in your own code, please use the canonical URL in your Go code, instead of Github:

go get pifke.org/wpasupplicant

Or (until I finish setting up the self-hosted repository):

# From the root of your project:
git submodule add https://github.com/dpifke/golang-wpasupplicant vendor/pifke.org/wpasupplicant

Then:

import (
        "pifke.org/wpasupplicant"
)

As opposed to the pifke.org URL, I make no guarantee this Github repository will exist or be up-to-date in the future.
