We are sorry to say that as of April 23 2020, we will be fully retiring our Chatkit product. We understand that this will be disappointing to customers who have come to rely on the service, and are very sorry for the disruption that this will cause for them. Our sales and customer support teams are available at this time to handle enquiries and will support existing Chatkit customers as far as they can with transition. All Chatkit billing has now ceased , and customers will pay no more up to or beyond their usage for the remainder of the service. You can read more about our decision to retire Chatkit here: https://blog.pusher.com/narrowing-our-product-focus. If you are interested in learning about how you can build chat with Pusher Channels, check out our tutorials.
Golang server SDK for Pusher Chatkit.
This package provides an interface to interact with the Chatkit service. It allows interacting with the core Chatkit service and other subservices.
Please report any bugs or feature requests via a GitHub issue on this repo.
$ go get github.com/pusher/chatkit-server-go
This library requires Go versions >=1.9.
Before processing, ensure that you have created an account on the Chatkit Dashboard. You'll then have to create a Chatkit instance and acquire credentials for it (all of which is available in the dashboard.)
A new client may be instantiated as follows
import "github.com/pusher/chatkit-server-go"
client, err := chatkit.NewClient("<YOUR_INSTANCE_LOCATOR>", "<YOUR_KEY>")
if err != nil {
return err
}
// use client to make calls to the serviceVersions of the library below 1.0.0 are deprecated and support for them will soon be dropped.
It is highly recommended that you upgrade to the latest version if you're on an older version. To view a list of changes, please refer to the CHANGELOG.
To run the tests, a Chatkit instance is required along with its credentials. CHATKIT_INSTANCE_LOCATOR and CHATKIT_INSTANCE_KEY are required
to be set as environment variables. Note that the tests run against an actual cluster and are to be treated as integration tests.
$ go test -v
