I am working on a web based front-end for goboy, using websockets.

  • video is sent frame-by-frame as base64 encoded PNG
  • input is sent back from the browser over the same websocket

The current state is crude but working implementation, which I just hacked up in the last hour or so.

How to run? Something like this:
go run --tags gtk_3_10 ./cmd/goboy/main.go -frontend web ~/yellow.gbc
Then go to http://localhost:8080/ to play.

Some things to be improved:

  • sound is still sent via the oto.Player, this could be sent over the websocket as well
  • current implementation assumes at most one button press/release per "frame"
  • converting from 3D array of bytes to PNG is slow (this is independent of this PR, I have some fixes on another branch)
  • the html and js code are not that great.
  • the jquery library is outdated. I reasoned that we don't want to depend on external resources, so the jquery is in the repo.

Please check it out and let me know what you think!
