# GLFW 3.1 for Go [](https://travis-ci.org/go-gl/glfw) [](https://godoc.org/github.com/go-gl/glfw/v3.1/glfw)
## Installation
* GLFW C library source is included and built automatically as part of the Go package. But you need to make sure you have dependencies of GLFW:
* On OS X, you need Xcode or Command Line Tools for Xcode (`xcode-select --install`) for required headers and libraries.
* On Ubuntu/Debian-like Linux distributions, you need `libgl1-mesa-dev` and `xorg-dev` packages.
* See [here](http://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/compile.html#compile_deps) for full details.
* Go 1.4+ is required on Windows (otherwise you must use MinGW v4.8.1 exactly, see [Go issue 8811](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/8811)).
```
go get -u github.com/go-gl/glfw/v3.1/glfw
```
## Usage
```Go
package main
import (
"runtime"
"github.com/go-gl/glfw/v3.1/glfw"
)
func init() {
// This is needed to arrange that main() runs on main thread.
// See documentation for functions that are only allowed to be called from the main thread.
runtime.LockOSThread()
}
func main() {
err := glfw.Init()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
defer glfw.Terminate()
window, err := glfw.CreateWindow(640, 480, "Testing", nil, nil)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
window.MakeContextCurrent()
for !window.ShouldClose() {
// Do OpenGL stuff.
window.SwapBuffers()
glfw.PollEvents()
}
}
```
## Changelog
* Easy `go get` installation. GLFW source code is now included in-repo and compiled in so you don't have to build GLFW on your own and distribute shared libraries. The revision of GLFW C library used is listed in [GLFW_C_REVISION.txt](https://github.com/go-gl/glfw/blob/master/v3.1/glfw/GLFW_C_REVISION.txt) file.
* The error callback is now set internally. Functions return an error with corresponding code and description (do a type assertion to glfw3.Error for accessing the variables) if the error is recoverable. If not a panic will occur.
