Bug#964590: RFP: golang-goipp -- IPP core protocol implementation
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Package name : golang-goipp
Version : 0.0.0?
Upstream Author : Alexander Pevzner <pzz@apevzner.com>
URL : https://github.com/OpenPrinting/goipp
License : BSD-2-Clause
Programming Lang: Go
Description : IPP core protocol implementation
The goipp library is fairly complete implementation of IPP core protocol
in pure Go. Essentially, it is IPP messages parser/composer. Transport
is not implemented here, because Go standard library has an excellent
built-in HTTP client, and it doesn't make a lot of sense to wrap it
here. High-level requests, like "print a file" are also not implemented,
only the low-level stuff.
This is a reverse-build-dependeny of
[ipp-usb](https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ipp-usb/), which I intend to
package for the Debian Printing Team. But I know close to nothing about
Go, or Go packaging. I'm happy to learn, but would be thrilled if
someone from the Go packaging team could package golang-goipp for me. If
that is not achievable, at least review my packaging?
Looking forward to collaborating on this !
