liboqs-go

Custom LibOQS wrapper for Go

Installation

GOPATH approach

1. Make sure your $GOPATH is set: echo $GOPATH

2. Clone this repository into your go path: git clone https://github.com/Muzosh/liboqs-go $GOPATH/src/github.com/Muzosh/liboqs-go

3. On the system, where Go code will be compiled, build LibOQS (you can use build-liboqs.sh script from this repository) or if already built, specify its location by export LIBOQS_ROOT=/path/to/liboqs

4. In your Go code use: import "github.com/Muzosh/liboqs-go/oqsgo" and then oqsgo.XY()

5. Before building or running the Go code, export these environment variables:1

   export LIBOQS_ROOT="CHANGE_ME: <path-to-liboqs-repo>"
   export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH="$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH:$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/lib" # only for macOS
   export CGO_CPPFLAGS="-I$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/include"
   export CGO_LDFLAGS="-L$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/lib -loqs"

Go modules approach

1. Get the module: go get github.com/Muzosh/liboqs-go/oqsgo

2. In your Go code use: import "github.com/Muzosh/liboqs-go/oqsgo" and then oqsgo.XY()

3. If you don't have libOQS on the system, clone and build it wherever you like:

   • git clone -b main https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs.git && cd liboqs && cmake -GNinja -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -B ./build . && ninja -j $(nproc) -C ./build

4. Before building or running the code, export there environment variables:

   export LIBOQS_ROOT="CHANGE_ME: <path-to-liboqs-repo>"
   export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH="$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH:$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/lib" # only for macOS
   export CGO_CPPFLAGS="-I$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/include"
   export CGO_LDFLAGS="-L$LIBOQS_ROOT/build/lib -loqs"
