The LINE Messaging API SDK for Go makes it easy to develop bots using LINE Messaging API, and you can create a sample bot within minutes.
See the official API documentation for more information.

This library requires Go 1.21 or later.

Every client application allows configuration with WithHTTPClient and WithEndpoint. (For Blob client, configurations WithBlobHTTPClient and WithBlobEndpoint are also available.)
client := &http.Client{}
bot, err := messaging_api.NewMessagingApiAPI(
os.Getenv("LINE_CHANNEL_TOKEN"),
messaging_api.WithHTTPClient(client),
)
...
The LINE Messaging API primarily utilizes the JSON data format. To parse the incoming HTTP requests, the webhook.ParseRequest()
method is provided. This method reads the *http.Request
content and returns a slice of pointers to Event Objects.
import (
"github.com/line/line-bot-sdk-go/v8/linebot/webhook"
)
cb, err := webhook.ParseRequest(os.Getenv("LINE_CHANNEL_SECRET"), req)
if err != nil {
// Handle any errors that occur.
}
The LINE Messaging API is capable of handling various event types. The Messaging API SDK automatically unmarshals these events into respective classes like webhook.MessageEvent
, webhook.FollowEvent
, and so on. You can easily check the type of the event and respond accordingly using a switch statement as shown below:
for _, event := range cb.Events {
switch e := event.(type) {
case webhook.MessageEvent:
// Do Something...
case webhook.StickerMessageContent:
// Do Something...
}
}
We provide code examples.
- EchoBot
- a simple echo bot
- KitchenSink
- a bot that handles many types of events
- EchoBotHandler
- A simple bot that automatically verifies signatures and only handles Webhook events
- DeliveryHelper
- InsightHelper
- RichmenuHelper
To send a message to a user, group, or room, you need either an ID
userID := event.Source.UserId
groupID := event.Source.GroupId
RoomID := event.Source.RoomId
or a reply token.
replyToken := event.ReplyToken
The LINE Messaging API provides various types of message.
bot.ReplyMessage(
&messaging_api.ReplyMessageRequest{
ReplyToken: e.ReplyToken,
Messages: []messaging_api.MessageInterface{
messaging_api.TextMessage{
Text: replyMessage,
},
},
},
)
With an ID, you can send message using PushMessage()
bot.PushMessage(
&messaging_api.PushMessageRequest{
To: "U.......",
Messages: []messaging_api.MessageInterface{
messaging_api.TextMessage{
Text: replyMessage,
},
},
},
nil, // x-line-retry-key
)
With a reply token, you can reply to messages using ReplyMessage()
bot.ReplyMessage(
&messaging_api.ReplyMessageRequest{
ReplyToken: e.ReplyToken,
Messages: []messaging_api.MessageInterface{
messaging_api.TextMessage{
Text: replyMessage,
},
},
},
)
You may need to store the x-line-request-id
header obtained as a response from several APIs. In this case, please use ~WithHttpInfo
. You can get headers and status codes. The x-line-accepted-request-id
or content-type
header can also be obtained in the same way.
resp, _, _ := app.bot.ReplyMessageWithHttpInfo(
&messaging_api.ReplyMessageRequest{
ReplyToken: replyToken,
Messages: []messaging_api.MessageInterface{
messaging_api.TextMessage{
Text: "Hello, world",
},
},
},
)
log.Printf("status code: (%v), x-line-request-id: (%v)", resp.StatusCode, resp.Header.Get("x-line-request-id"))
Similarly, you can get specific error messages by using ~WithHttpInfo
.
resp, _, err := app.bot.ReplyMessageWithHttpInfo(
&messaging_api.ReplyMessageRequest{
ReplyToken: replyToken + "invalid",
Messages: []messaging_api.MessageInterface{
messaging_api.TextMessage{
Text: "Hello, world",
},
},
},
)
if err != nil && resp.StatusCode >= 400 && resp.StatusCode < 500 {
decoder := json.NewDecoder(resp.Body)
errorResponse := &messaging_api.ErrorResponse{}
if err := decoder.Decode(&errorResponse); err != nil {
log.Fatal("failed to decode JSON: %w", err)
}
log.Printf("status code: (%v), x-line-request-id: (%v), error response: (%v)", resp.StatusCode, resp.Header.Get("x-line-request-id"), errorResponse)
}
