**DEPRECATED. Please see [`./mobile`](./mobile/REDME.md) instead. Currently, the exported bindings are not in sync with `mobile`. They might be missing or working differently.**
This package provides CGO bindings so that it can be used to create a static library and link it with other projects in different languages, namely [status-react](https://github.com/status-im/status-react). Even though, we switched to [gomobile](./mobile/REDME.md), this package can still be useful for generating a static library to link with C/C++ program.
Bindings are exported and described in `library.go`.

Package mobile implements [gomobile](https://github.com/golang/mobile) bindings for status-go. Current implementation servers as a drop-in replacement for `lib` package.
Individual bindings and their descriptions are available in `status.go`.
The primary consumer of this package is [status-react project](https://github.com/status-im/status-react).
The framework name is generated from the package name, hence these things are done intentionally:
(1) this package's name isn't equal to the directory name (`statusgo` vs `mobile` respectively);
(2) this package name is `statusgo` and not `status` which produces the right framework name.
# Usage
## Usage
For properly using this package, please refer to Makefile in the root of `status-go` directory.

This will generate `Statusgo.aar` file in the current dir.

## Notes
See [https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Mobile](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Mobile) for more information on `gomobile` usage.
