gourl

gourl

gourl is a serialization framework for golang. It converts the fields of a struct into a URL parameters compatible format.

Example

type Test struct {
    NumberField int    `url:"numberField"`
    TextField   string `url:"textField"`
}

test := Test{NumberField: 1, TextField: "hey"}

// returns the struct as []byte
byteData, err := gourl.Marshal(test)
text := string(byteData) // numberField=1&textField=hey

// returns the struct as url.Values
values, err := gourl.Values(test)
values.Encode() // numberField=1&textField=hey

Features

The following data types are supported:

• bool
• float32, float64
• int, int8, int16, int32, int64
• string

Following tags are supported:

• Ignore fields in struct for serialization

type Test struct {
    IgnoredField string `url:"-"`
}

• Ignore the field if
  • pointer type is nil
  • type string is empty
  • type int or float is 0
  • type boolean is false

type Test struct {
    EmptyString string `url:"emptyString,omitempty"`
}
