VK API

VK API lib for Golang

Current VK API version: 5.92

Almost everything is supported, but not everything is tested (VK API Schema has a lot of issues).

See TODOs and unsupported types.

Uses easyjson Inspired by telebot

Overview

Library consists of three packages:

• vk: Core package, defines API interface, provides BaseAPI implementation and defines most of types used by VK API
• vkapi: Automatically generated wrappers for API
• vkbot: Various helpers for making VK Bots -- using Callback API or Bots Long Poll API to automate communities

Getting started

Minimal example -- making API calls:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"os"
	"github.com/stek29/vk"
	"github.com/stek29/vk/vkapi"
)

func main() {
	client, _ := vk.NewBaseAPI(vk.BaseAPIConfig{AccessToken: os.Getenv("VK_TOKEN")})
	users, _ := vkapi.Users{client}.Get(vkapi.UsersGetParams{
		UserIDs: []string{"1"},
		Fields:  []string{"followers_count"},
	})
	fmt.Printf("Pavel Durov has %v followers\n", users[0].FollowersCount)
}

For bot example: See echobot

Also see nocyril: A bit more advanced "bot" which supports multiple groups and works via callback poller.

Uploading files

Currently there's no wrapper to handle file uploads, since it's trivial to do it manually.

See vidloader for an example of video uploader program.
