Thanks @cwchristerw! Great idea. I'm just going to rename for clarity.

I see that you have some Go experience -- is this something you'd be able to take a first run at? If so, happy to point you in the right direction :)

I could try to do something but usually I dont create code my self but fix things that I know ;D

patcon commented 5 years ago

Totally your call, but... I believe in you! It's mostly copying strategies from elsewhere that have been pretty robustly modelled in other bridges :)

I mean, I'd never used go before this project, and the build process of golang in general was the toughest part. (I'm not a maintainer btw, just a fellow contributor)

It seems that this is really hard because I would need help to understand different things specific for Go language and this library. :( So I'm desparate and there for stopped working on this. I have learned PHP procedular and OOP but they look so much different than Go. Also there is no samples for Go in Code Samples (https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/code_samples)

Don't give up! Maybe try browsing this: https://github.com/youtube/api-samples/tree/master/go

There aren't as many golang examples in there compared to other languages in that repo, but you can probably compare what's there and learn a lot :)

If you really don't feel ready to dive in, you might be able to try setting this issue up like a first-timer-only issue -- just set this issue up (or a new one) with as much information as possible for someone interested to learn Go, and then we can tag it as a first-timers-only issue and see who shows.

You might want to read up a bit on the philosophy of first-timers-only, so that you make the issue as welcoming as possible for whoever shows up from places like this: https://twitter.com/first_tmrs_only

Public Lab is an organization that has tons of great templates and support on creating first-timers-only issues:

https://publiclab.org/wiki/software-outreach (down for maintenance for 2h right now)
example of how the get everyone creating FTO issues: https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/issues/842
template they use for creating FTO issues: https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/blob/master/.github/first-timers-issue-template.md

Anyhow, hopefully that's not too much information :) Just trying to support you in helping yourself, and just because you're not feeling like you have the skills to do the work yet, that doesn't mean you can't support this project (and your own wishes!) by helping encourage someone else to drop in and make the contribution 🎉
