Nexmo Server SDK For Go

This SDK has moved! It is now vonage-go-sdk, located at vonage/vonage-go-sdk. New features will be released under vonage/vonage-go-sdk, so to take advantage of those please make sure to switch as soon as possible so you don't miss out!

For users of older versions: if tracking master gives you a surprise on update, pin to v0.8.1, this is the release from before the refactor and the move to vonage.

If you don't already know Nexmo: We make telephony APIs. If you need to make a call, check a phone number, or send an SMS then you are in the right place! If you don't have a Nexmo yet, you can sign up for a Nexmo account and get some free credit to get you started.

Please note that this project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.

	"log"

	"github.com/nexmo-community/nexmo-go"
)

func main() {
	auth := nexmo.NewAuthSet()
	auth.SetAPISecret(API_KEY, API_SECRET)
	client := nexmo.New(http.DefaultClient, auth)
	insight, _, err := client.Insight.GetBasicInsight(nexmo.BasicInsightRequest{
		Number: PHONE_NUMBER,
	})
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Println("Country Name:", insight.CountryName)
	fmt.Println("Local Formatting:", insight.NationalFormatNumber)
	fmt.Println("International Formatting:", insight.InternationalFormatNumber)
}

Sending SMS

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"os"

	"github.com/nexmo-community/nexmo-go"

	auth.SetAPISecret(API_KEY, API_SECRET)

	client := nexmo.NewClient(http.DefaultClient, auth)
	smsReq := nexmo.SendSMSRequest {
	    From: FROM_NUMBER,
	    To: TO_NUMBER,
	    Text: "This message comes to you from Nexmo via Golang",
    }

	callR, _, err := client.SMS.SendSMS(smsReq)

	if err != nil {

}

Receiving SMS

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net/http"
)

func main() {

	http.HandleFunc("/webhooks/inbound-sms", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		params := r.URL.Query()
		fmt.Println("SMS from " + params["msisdn"][0] + ": " + string(params["text"][0]))
	})

	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

Starting a Verify Request

    package main

    import (
        "fmt"
        "github.com/nexmo-community/nexmo-go"
        "log"
        "net/http"
    )

    func verify_start() {
        auth := nexmo.NewAuthSet()
        auth.SetAPISecret(API_KEY, API_SECRET)
        client := nexmo.NewClient(http.DefaultClient, auth)
        verification, _, err := client.Verify.Start(nexmo.StartVerificationRequest{
            Number: PHONE_NUMBER,
            Brand:  "Golang Docs",
        })
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }
        fmt.Println("Request ID:", verification.RequestID)
    }

    func main() {
        verify_start()
    }

Confirming a Verify Code

    package main

    import (
        "fmt"
        "github.com/nexmo-community/nexmo-go"
        "log"
        "net/http"
    )

    func verify_check() {
        auth := nexmo.NewAuthSet()
        auth.SetAPISecret(API_KEY, API_SECRET)
        client := nexmo.NewClient(http.DefaultClient, auth)
        response, _, err := client.Verify.Check(nexmo.CheckVerificationRequest{
            RequestID: REQUEST_ID,
            Code:      CODE,
        })
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }
        fmt.Println("Status:", response.Status)
        fmt.Println("Cost:", response.Price)
    }

    func main() {
        verify_check()
    }

Make a Phone Call

The Voice API uses applications and private keys for authentication. To use this snippet you will need a Nexmo number (for the "from" field), and an application with an ID and a private key. You can learn more about creating applications on the Developer Portal.

	// get the private key ready, assume file name private.key
	file, file_err := os.Open("private.key")
	if file_err != nil {
		log.Fatal(file_err)
	}
	defer file.Close()

	key, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(file)

	auth := nexmo.NewAuthSet()
	auth.SetApplicationAuth(APPLICATION_ID, key)
	client := nexmo.NewClient(http.DefaultClient, auth)

	to := make([]interface{}, 1)
	to[0] = nexmo.PhoneCallEndpoint{
		Type:   "phone",
		Number: TO_NUMBER,
	}

	response, _, err := client.Call.CreateCall(nexmo.CreateCallRequest{
		From:      nexmo.PhoneCallEndpoint{"phone", NEXMO_NUMBER, ""},
		To:        to,
		AnswerURL: []string{ANSWER_URL},
		EventURL:  []string{EVENT_URL},
	})

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Println("Status:", response.Status)
