uinput go binding

This uinput Go binding permits to generate gamepad, mouse and keyboard events under Linux

Most of the constants and structures are extracted with c-for-go.

This is a Work in Progress, the code is not yet documented nor tested.

Setup

go get github.com/ynsta/uinput

Example

cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/ynsta/uinput/examples
go build gamepad.go

The user must have the permission to write to /dev/uinput, the configuration is distribution specific but should be similar to this :

1. Add your user to the input group:

   sudo gpasswd --add $USER input

2. Create /etc/udev/rules.d/99-uinput.rules with:

   KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0660", GROUP="input", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput"

3. Reload udev sudo udevadm control --reload
