How to custom APIs?

[Cretezy]

I'm interesting in adding custom APIs, such as adding a console API to print.

My question is how to add callbacks from JS to Go using v8go. I've used J2V8 before which allows to add APIs to the global scope, such as an object for console with the method log which calls back to Java in that case. Is that possible using this project?

The ideal API would be something like (pseudo code):

console = CreateObject()

console.AddMethod("log", (params Value[]) {
	print(params[0])
})

isolate.Add("console", console)

In addition, it would be much more useful to actually be able to use Value with more than strings.

I would also like to get such functionality!

Being able to bind structs, functions, and values to variables in V8 would make this useful for the project I'm working on as well. Right now I'm trying to replace goja, and stumbled on this project.

Currently this project does not expose a method to influence the global object in the created context.

This is something I'm looking at adding as an API. Starting with #50, which will pave the way for more interop between v8 and Go.

In terms of specifically console'log that may require a slightly custom API as v8 has it's own delegate for the console object. Still needs to flesh this out, but will become clearer once I get to that part of the code.

Thanks for your patience.
