go-nflog

This is go-nflog and it is written in golang. It provides a C-binding free API to the netfilter based log subsystem of the Linux kernel.

Example

func main() {
	// Send outgoing pings to nflog group 100
	// # sudo iptables -I OUTPUT -p icmp -j NFLOG --nflog-group 100

	//Set configuration parameters
	config := nflog.Config{
		Group:    100,
		Copymode: nflog.NfUlnlCopyPacket,
	}

	nf, err := nflog.Open(&config)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("could not open nflog socket:", err)
		return
	}
	defer nf.Close()

	ctx, _ := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10*time.Second)

	fn := func(m nflog.Msg) int {
		fmt.Printf("%v\n", m[nflog.NfUlaAttrPayload])
		return 0
	}

	// Register your function to listen on nflog group 100
	err = nf.Register(ctx, fn)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
		return
	}

	// Block till the context expires
	<-ctx.Done()
}
