hey, I'm trying to download and install go-thrust, but I think something is wrong. After running the go get command I found in the github page I get this message:

go/src/github.com/miketheprogrammer/go-thrust/lib/spawn/download.go:20: undefined: PathNotExist

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

I must have broke something IN my last BUILD I'll fix tonight

john dev

@john-dev

hey.. is this project still supported, even thrust itself (breach) is closed?

are there known maintained alternative projects with the same goal maybe?

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

go-thrust is maintained, but the underlying thrust is not

john dev

@john-dev

Ok, will this be problem in the future? I played around with thrust yesterday and i love it, all i'm missing is the native binding but i guess, thats an overall problem, right? you think its possible to show an example of how to implent it and let the community do the rest?

the websocket idea is a nice workaroung but not really "production ready"

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

there is no ability to do native in the browser binding in the way we built go-thrust. we specifically built it to work over RPC. go-thrust talks to thrust via RPC. which means, you can either use our custom (thrust) js on the frontend to send basic rpc messages to the frontend or you can build websocket or http api and work from there

Hi! I'm running into this same error @SholvaBai posted further up on the chat:

It's only when running the windows built binary though

I was wondering if anyone else has seen this?

john dev

@john-dev

is it possible to disable window resizing?

Jasmit Tarang

@jaytarang92

Anyone thought of embedding html/js files in the binary and then using thrust to display them?

johnally

@johnally

@jaytarang92 should be possible. look in go-bindata-assetfs

when using go-bindata-assetfs you essentially create a golang file called bindata_assetfs.go. then you can do a go build which will create a single binary

bindata_assetfs.go will hold all your assets ;)

@john-dev just started working with go-thrust. I was wondering if there was a way to prevent window resizing (e.g capturing the resize event and return a false)

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

thats what your supposed to do @jaytarang92

@johnally Not sure if you can prevent, but you can definitely run in kiosk mode\

Jasmit Tarang

@jaytarang92

Thanks guys .. I was gonna do that but the thrust_shell dependency is huge .

@fellou89 regarding your issue is that you need to included the vendor folder that has the thrust_shell with all the dependencies in order to run your binary.

johnally

@johnally

@miketheprogrammer thanks for your response. I will try the kiosk mode :)

@jaytarang92 if you are doing a windows app, you can still upx the whole thing afterward. I got from ~9mb to ~2mb. Still a fair trade in my opinion (but that's without thrust included)

Lex French

@LexFrench

Once my single binary is built what is the best way to package it for Mac or Windows platforms so that the terminal is not launched when I click on the app? Is that possible?

Olivier Gagnon

@hydroflame

Ohoi, does go-thrust do offline rendering ?

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

Oh hey @hydroflame

And I think it does support it using file://

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

Because of this https://github.com/miketheprogrammer/go-thrust/blob/master/lib/bindings/window/window.go#L41

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

Although like this demo shows You could just emebed a local http server as well.

But Supporting offline rendering with no webserer like electron does would be a huge plus if it existed.

Olivier Gagnon

@hydroflame

no offline rendering means rendering to not a window

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

Oh, didn’t know it meant that.

Thanks for clarifying

Olivier Gagnon

@hydroflame

but since it doesn't look like it does it i'll fallback to using steamworks hidden HTML renderer

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

@hydroflame Keep in mind, local networks still count a local. You could host a webserver in the go-thrust app, and connect back to it. Like i do with the chat demo. Like @otraore said

ah, wait, you meant not a window. Headless is not supported.

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

That’s what I thought he meant at first @miketheprogrammer But he me--

Yeah :p

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

thanks for helping him out

@LexFrench I dont remember how to remove the terminal. I think you have to create a full OSX Package, but i cant remember how to do that correctly. I think I wrote instructions somewhere on the README.md

@LexFrench On windows, I have no idea. Someone else might know. Just ask in the Golang irc or somwhere. They can def help you

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

I read somewhere how to do so

I think it was with go-qml, but I forgot where

I’ll try to find it again later on

Michael Hernandez

@miketheprogrammer

yea, its def possible. But its one of those, if you dont do it everyday you lose it

Ousmane Traore

@otraore

Yeah for sure

jow blew

@joeblew99

the core thrust code has not been touched for 2 years on github, but then at the very bottom of the read me it says it is mostly made from brightray which is supported by the electron team. is this true ? it would mean its stil very much active ?

jow blew

@joeblew99

to be clear, as i realised i was not, this is the URL i am refering to: https://github.com/breach/thrusthttps://github.com/breach/thrust

https://github.com/breach/thrust

it has not had a release in 2 years. weird
