To open one link, you can use the Open operation.

That will open the link in the default browser. You can use OpenURL to open a *url.URL:

gioplugins.Execute(gtx, giohyperlink.OpenOp{URI: &url.URL{
    Scheme: "https",
    Host:   "github.com",
}})

Operations must be added with gioplugins.Execute method. The operation will be executed at the end of the frame.

• giohyperlink.OpenCmd:
  • Opens the link in the default browser. Currently, only supports http and https schemes.

Events are response sent using the Tag and should be handled with gioplugins.Event().

• giohyperlink.ErrorEvent:
  • Sent to Tag when it's not possible to open the hyperlink.

By default, only HTTP and HTTPS links are allowed, but you can change that by changing InsecureIgnoreScheme to true, you should validate the URL and scheme on your own.
