Package systray is a cross platfrom Go library to place an icon and menu in the notification area.
Tested on Windows 8, Mac OSX, Ubuntu 14.10 and Debian 7.6.
## Usage
```go
func main() {
// Should be called at the very beginning of main().
systray.Run(onReady, onExit)
}
func onReady() {
systray.SetIcon(icon.Data)
systray.SetTitle("Awesome App")
systray.SetTooltip("Pretty awesome超级棒")
mQuit := systray.AddMenuItem("Quit", "Quit the whole app")
// Sets the icon of a menu item. Only available on Mac.
mQuit.SetIcon(icon.Data)
}
func onExit() {
// clean up here
}
```
Menu item can be checked and / or disabled. Methods except `Run()` can be invoked from any goroutine. See demo code under `example` folder.
## Platform specific concerns
### Linux
```sh
sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libappindicator3-dev
```
Checked menu item not implemented on Linux yet.
## Try
Under `example` folder.
Place tray icon under `icon`, and use `make_icon.bat` or `make_icon.sh`, whichever suit for your os, to convert the icon to byte array.
Your icon should be .ico file under Windows, whereas .ico, .jpg and .png is supported on other platform.
```sh
go get
go run main.go
```
## Building and the Console Window
By default, the binary created by `go build` will cause a console window to be opened on both Windows and macOS when run.
### Windows
To prevent launching a console window when running on Windows, add these command-line build flags:
```sh
go build -ldflags -H=windowsgui
```
### macOS
On macOS, you will need to create an application bundle to wrap the binary; simply folders with the following minimal structure and assets:
```
SystrayApp.app/
Contents/
Info.plist
MacOS/
go-executable
Resources/
SystrayApp.icns
```
