Reading and parsing event messages in /dev/input/event1 on 32-bit platform with Golang.

event_message.go

package main

import (
        "bytes"
        "encoding/binary"
        "fmt"
        "os"
        "time"
)

func main() {
        f, err := os.Open("/dev/input/event1")

        if err != nil {
                panic(err)
        }

        defer f.Close()

        b := make([]byte, 16)

        for {
                f.Read(b)
                fmt.Printf("%b\n", b)

                sec := binary.LittleEndian.Uint32(b[0:8])
                t := time.Unix(int64(sec), 0)
                fmt.Println(t)

                var value int32
                typ := binary.LittleEndian.Uint16(b[8:10])
                code := binary.LittleEndian.Uint16(b[10:12])
                binary.Read(bytes.NewReader(b[12:]), binary.LittleEndian, &value)
                fmt.Printf("type: %x\ncode: %d\nvalue: %d\n", typ, code, value)
        }
}

This is based on Janczer's solution for 64-bit platforms.
