Something About Parsing JSON Using Go
Problem
Go requires exported properties to start with a capital letter but most APIs use JSON that is all in cammelCase so
using json.Unmarshal
will always result in all empty properties. ie
{
"name" : "some name",
"age" : 1
}
Solution
json:"cammelCasePropertyName"
adding a clause to the type’s property. ie:
type Sample struct {
Name string `json:"name"`
Age int `json:"age"`
}
will create the correct mapping of JSON property to Struct property
Better Solution
goto https://gobyexample.com/json instead….
