Open Science Framework (OSF) SDK for Golang

go-osf if a Go client library for accessing the Open Science Framework (OSF) API.

Installation

go-osf makes use of the generics, so it requires Go v1.18.

To use this library within a Go module project:

go get github.com/joshuabezaleel/go-osf

Usage

An OSF access token is required to use this library. You can create one from the OSF settings page. You can create an account if you haven't had already.

The following code gets the first 100 public preprints from the OSF.

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"

	"github.com/joshuabezaleel/go-osf/osf"
	"golang.org/x/oauth2"
)

func main() {
	ctx := context.Background()
	ts := oauth2.StaticTokenSource(
		&oauth2.Token{AccessToken: "your token here ..."},
	)
	tc := oauth2.NewClient(ctx, ts)

	client := osf.NewClient(tc)

	opts := &osf.PreprintsListOptions{
		ListOptions: osf.ListOptions{
			Page:    1,
			PerPage: 100,
		},
	}
	preprints, _, err := client.Preprints.ListPreprints(ctx, opts)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	for _, preprint := range preprints {
		log.Printf("URL: %s", *preprint.Links.Html)
		log.Printf("Title: %s", preprint.Title)
		log.Printf("Description: %s", preprint.Description)
	}

}
