New Go library scipgo brings SCIP optimizer bindings to Go developers
A developer released scipgo, an open-source Go library that wraps the SCIP solver for mixed integer and nonlinear programming problems. It mirrors the API design of russcip, an existing Rust crate for SCIP, making it straightforward for developers familiar with either language to switch between them.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
SCIP is widely used in operations research and optimization for problems like scheduling, routing and resource allocation, but until now Go developers lacked a mature, idiomatic way to access it. By exposing SCIP's full modeling surface—including custom branching rules, heuristics and constraint handlers as Go interfaces—scipgo lets backend teams build optimization directly into Go services without shelling out to other languages.
- scipgo is a new Go binding for the SCIP mixed integer programming solver.
- It closely follows the API of the Rust crate russcip for easy portability between languages.
- It exposes SCIP's full feature set, including custom plugins and safe panic handling in callbacks.
