Re: [go-nuts] need library suggestions on writing a record program

2016-11-28 Thread Justin Israel
Does a replacement have to be a terminal app or is that just to match the
legacy look and feel? I haven't written apps in a terminal UI before, but I
have spent many years writing Qt applications, so I would probably reach
for Qt via https://github.com/therecipe/qt

If you haven't written any Go yet, it will be two challenges at once, since
you also have to wrap your head around an event loop and connecting signals
and slots together (function callbacks). I would assume terminal UI libs
will work the same way.

[go-nuts] need library suggestions on writing a record program

2016-11-28 Thread biatche
i'd like to rewrite an old dos medical patient record program in go for a 
friend. its not a complex program by any means

i'd probably use go-sqlite3 for storage but its the terminal part where I'm 
confused. should i use gocui or termbox directly?

the program will only have menus to be controlled using arrow-keys, 
hotkeys, fields for keying in data

if there are any other libs i should know of that may be useful in this 
task please share.

keep in mind, i have no knowledge of go.. but this should be the first 
first proper programming language i'd learn. (im currently reasonable in 
bash scripting)
