OpenSADP (Go)

OpenSADP is a Go reimplementation, designed to run sort of SADP Tool by Hikvision at MacBook (aarch64).

• Core: SADP UDP multicast scan and XML parsing in pure Go
• UI: Using miqt (Qt bindings for Go) — see github.com/mappu/miqt

Status

• Core SADP scan implemented in sadp/
• CLI scanner cmd/opensadp-scan prints discovered devices as CSV
• Qt UI scaffolding will follow using miqt: https://github.com/mappu/miqt

Build

Go 1.22+ recommended.

cd opensadp
go build -ldflags "-s -w" -o OpenSADP ./cmd/opensadp-qt && go build -ldflags "-s -w" -o opensadp-scan ./cmd/opensadp-scan
./opensadp-scan

Resources (icon) embedding

OpenSADP embeds the application icon into the binary using miqt resources, so the .ico file is not required next to the executable.

• Icon source: res/sadp.ico
• Resource manifest: res/resources.qrc
• Generated Go file: res/resources_gen.go
• Resource path used in code: :/opensadp/sadp.ico

If you update files under res/, regenerate the embedded resource:

cd opensadp
# Generate Go resources using miqt-rcc
go run github.com/mappu/miqt/cmd/miqt-rcc@latest \
  -Input res/resources.qrc \
  -OutputGo res/resources_gen.go \
  -Package res

# Rebuild the UI app
go build -ldflags "-s -w" -o OpenSADP ./cmd/opensadp-qt

At runtime the app loads the icon from the embedded Qt resource path :/opensadp/sadp.ico.

Trademark / ownership notice

Notes

• On some systems you may need firewall permissions to receive UDP replies.
• For Qt UI with miqt on macOS (dynamic): install Homebrew golang, pkg-config, and qt@5, then follow miqt README build guidance.
