cap - Common Alerting Protocol Version 1.2 (CAP)

Package cap is the Go implementation of OASIS Common Alerting Protocol Version 1.2 (CAP) + Canadian Profile (CAP-CP).

Usage

The cap package exposes the function ParseCAP. This takes a valid XML CAP 1.2 message as []byte and returns an Alert struct. All fields defined within the Common Alerting Protocol are present in Alert. If the XML data is not valid, an error will be returned.

For all available fields, please see the godoc. Here is a simple example of reading the alert headline.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "io/ioutil"

    "github.com/thetannerryan/cap"
)

func main() {
    contents, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("alert.xml")
    alert, err := cap.ParseCAP(contents)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    // print the alert headline
    fmt.Println(alert.Info[0].Headline)
}
