With a correctly configured Go toolchain:

go get -u github.com/boogst/bytebuffer

Examples

Let's start creating your byteBuffer. We have to call the NewBuffer function, it receives a string that indicates the type of buffer you want to create: "big" or "little"

buffBig := bytebuffer.NewBuffer("big")
buffLittle := bytebuffer.NewBuffer("little")

To add data we only call the functions:

buff := bytebuffer.NewBuffer("little")
buff.PutShort(52)
buff.PutInt(2)
buff.PutLong(2)
buff.PutFloat(2.5)
buff.PutDouble(4.5)
buff.Put([]byte("Hello World"))

Print buffer:

You have to call the function .Array(), it returns a slice of bytes

fmt.Println(buff.Array())
Output:
[52 0 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 32 64 0 0 0 0 0 0 18 64 72 101 108 108 111 32 87 111 114 108 100]

Get data:

To retrieve the information added to the buffer you have to call the "get" functions in the order in which the data was added:

fmt.Println(buff.GetShort()) 	//52
fmt.Println(buff.GetInt())   	//2
fmt.Println(buff.GetLong())  	//2
fmt.Println(buff.GetFloat()) 	//2.5
fmt.Println(buff.GetDouble())	//4.5
