Story: Writing Scripts with Go

This is a story about how I tried to use Go for scripting. In this story, I’ll discuss the need for a Go script, how we would expect it to behave and the possible implementations; During the discussion I’ll deep dive to scripts, shells, and shebangs. Finally, we’ll discuss solutions that will make Go scripts work.

Why Go is good for scripting?

While python and bash are popular scripting languages, C, C++ and Java are not used for scripts at all, and some languages are somewhere in between.

#!/bin/bash -e
# extract_cookies.sh:
#
# Convert from Firefox's cookies.sqlite format to Netscape cookies,
# which can then be used by wget and curl. (Why don't wget and curl
# just use libsqlite if it's installed?)

# USAGE:
#
# $ extract_cookies.sh > /tmp/cookies.txt

# An overly complicated SIP config checker

# This is a technically interesting implementation because it does not rely on csrutil
# Instead it queries the kernel directly for the current configuration status
# This means, for example, in environments where SIP has been disabled and csrutil has
# been removed or modified (say, with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH), as long as python can run you
# can still check status

# Additionally, checking the nvram csr-active-config setting isn't accurate now with
# 10.12.2+, since running "sudo csrutil clear" deletes the variable until reboot,
