go-nft

Go bindings for nft utility.

go-nft wraps invocation of the nft utility with functions to append and delete rules; create, clear and delete tables and chains.

To start using go-nft

go-nft is a library that provides a structured API to nftables.

go-nft uses the libnftables-json specification and exposes a subset of its structures.

• Apply the configuration:

config := nft.NewConfig()
config.AddTable(nft.NewTable("mytable", nft.FamilyIP))
err := nft.ApplyConfig(config)

• Read the configuration:

config, err := nft.ReadConfig()
nftVersion := config.Nftables[0].Metainfo.Version

For full setup example, see the integration test examples.
