golang bgp implementation (w/o forwarding path programming; intended to be used in conjunction with keepalived)

Golang's bgp implementation (control plane only)

What is it?

This is a package for golang which implements BGP's (rfc 4271 etc) feature sets

Intendent usecases:

The package must allow to participate in bgp exchange. Main goals is to be able to inject locally generated routes to the bgp domain (for example from the SLBs; i've started this project as a side package, for my keepalived project) as well as to be able to recieve and process bgp msgs from the peers (for example to be used in some kind of analytic tool)

Where it's now?

Right now i'm trying to implement minimal functionals to be able to exchange ipv4 bgp routes. (we already can parse almost any msgs from the peers)

Where it's going to be in a... ?

Nearest future

The second musthave feature (the first one is working ipv4 implementation) is ipv6

Future

I want for this package to be able to parse and/or generate ''' IPv4 unicast routes IPv4 labeled unicast routes IPv6 unicast routes IPv6 labeled unicast routes (and maybe; not yet sure; flowspec) ''' And to be able to parse routes for the rest of the know mp-bgp's families (vpns vpls etc etc etc)

Why i dont use exabgp instead?

Because i want to have golang's implementation and it's interesting for me to write this

how active this project will be?

as i can see it right now, it will be my pet project (where i'm going to contribute @ after work hours), so dont expect that this is going to be fulltime project (well at least while i'm working alone @ in)
