goja

• A modern load testing tool, using Go and JavaScript !!

  Huge fan of goja JavaScript engine (100% Go) as a way to make life extensible. Have my upvote. :)

• A CGo-free port of the PCRE2 regular expression library

  It's also very useful if you're writing an interpreter which intends to be compatible with something that already needs PCRE support. For example, goja (a JS interpreter) uses regexp2 to support JS's regexp syntax, since JS is not limited to re2.

  - Bud will eventually ship with it's own JS evaluator. Either through https://github.com/dop251/goja or through porting https://github.com/bellard/quickjs to Go (~25kloc of C)

• Choosing scripting extension - need advice

  For JS in Go use goja, which offers excellent integration with Go. Also I maintain an extension that adds Common-JS compatibility to it.

• Chrome 0day is being exploited now for CVE-2022-1096; update immediately

  There are certainly other javascript implementations. For example, here's one I stumbled upon recently that's written in plain Go: https://github.com/dop251/goja

  Of course, it won't help you since it's not built into a web browser.

• Rendering Vega Charts in Pure Go
  2 projects | reddit.com/r/golang | 8 Mar 2022

  govega is a kind of beautifully weird wrapper around Vega and goja that lets us render great looking Vega charts, graphs, etc.. in pure Go. The library is pretty self explanatory and there are are a few examples and a command line tool that can take Vega spec files and Data blobs and plop out SVGs.

• Migrating from nodejs to go codebase using gopherjs
  3 projects | reddit.com/r/golang | 22 Feb 2022

  If you have some scripting you want to do in javascript permanently (or even just for a while) after having your main project running in Go, it might be useful to look at embedding v8 or quickjs since those options would give you a fully featured runtime, but they would mean cgo. If you want pure Go, you might be able to use https://github.com/dop251/goja (which can even run a typescript compiler and/or babel if you need) but your use case is still important. A lot of what you are doing might be from the os and fs libraries, etc, which are not part of the runtime but rather libraries, and in the case of many, they might be written in C. Hopefully you can add the little bit you need or ignore it and do that work in Go.

• Compiling a Go program into a native binary for Nintendo Switch™

  There's always goja and the nodejs compatibility library, tho you likely won't get perfect results.

  There's pure Go Javascript engines like goja, should be easier to port.

• How do you use fswatch to reload an http server project on file changes?
  2 projects | reddit.com/r/golang | 21 Jun 2021

  Prudence uses JavaScript (the goja engine) to bootstrap your application and keeps track of a global set of "startable" objects. So, once any watched file changes the current startables are stopped and the bootstrap code (which is what might have been changed!) is re-run.
