[question] Packages in other languages

[Alberto-Izquierdo]

What is your question?

Hi!

I was thinking on using this library in a C++ project. As you can see, it is a golang library with a C interface for interoperability with other languages. This library provides a Makefile to generate .so file, but it obviously requires go for the compilation.

I have checked the conan center docs and I haven't seen anything related to this topic. My question is: would it be possible to add library written in go to conan center?

Thanks!

I added a recipe for Go and SecSIPIdX to my personal repo:

• https://github.com/valgur/conan-center-index/blob/dev/recipes/go/all/conanfile.py
• https://github.com/valgur/conan-center-index/blob/dev/recipes/secsipidx/all/conanfile.py

Neither would likely be merged on CCI, though.

@valgur Thanks for the response!

Is there any reason you did not create a PR to merge these changes?
