Webbrowser provides a simple API for opening web pages on your default browser. It's inspired on Python's webbrowser package but lacks some of its features (open new window).
It just opens a webpage, most browsers will open it on a new tab.
It is licensed under the MIT open source license, please see the LICENSE.txt file for more information.
The package is guaranteed to work on windows
, linux
and darwin
. It also has default support for freebsd
, openbsd
and netbsd
but these three hasn't been tested yet.
Copy & Paste fans: go get github.com/toqueteos/webbrowser
Just import the package (after you got it):
import "github.com/toqueteos/webbrowser"
Then use the Open
function.
webbrowser.Open("http://golang.org")
Just in case, you have a very simple example on examples/simple.go
.
Miki Tebeka wrote a nicer version that wasn't on godoc.org when I did this. Check it out!
