Go bindings for vAccel wrap the vAccel C API and provide a native Go API to vAccel operations. The bindings are currently a WiP, supporting a subset of the vAccel operations.

You can find more information about these bindings and everything vAccel in the Documentation.

The Go bindings are implemented in the vaccel Go package.

• To use the vaccel Go package you need a valid vAccel installation. You can find more information on how to install vAccel in the Installation page.

• This package requires Go 1.20 or newer. Verify your Go version with:

  go version

  and update Go as needed using the official instructions.

You can use the package in your Go code like any other Go package with:

import "github.com/nubificus/vaccel-go/vaccel"

You can find examples in the examples directory. The provided examples are similar to the C examples and you must configure vAccel in order to use them.

To run an image classification, like the C classify, set:

export VACCEL_PLUGINS=libvaccel-noop.so

and, assuming vAccel is installed at /usr/local, run with:

$ go run github.com/nubificus/vaccel-go/examples/classify \
      /usr/local/share/vaccel/images/example.jpg
Output(1):  This is a dummy classification tag!
Output(2):  This is a dummy classification tag!
