I have a function that has a parameter with the type interface{}, something like:
func LoadTemplate(templateData interface{}) {
In my case, templateData is a struct, but each time it has a different structure. I used the type "interface{}" because it allows me to send all kind of data.
I'm using this templateData to send the data to the template:
err := tmpl.ExecuteTemplate(w, baseTemplateName, templateData)
But now I want to append some new data and I don't know how to do it because the "interface" type doesn't allow me to add/append anything.
I tried to convert the interface to a struct, but I don't know how to append data to a struct with an unknown structure.
If I use the following function I can see the interface's data:
templateData = appendAssetsToTemplateData(templateData)
func appendAssetsToTemplateData(t interface{}) interface{} {
switch reflect.TypeOf(t).Kind() {
case reflect.Struct:
fmt.Println("struct")
s := reflect.ValueOf(t)
fmt.Println(s)
//create a new struct based on current interface data
}
return t
}
Any idea how can I append a child to the initial interface parameter (templateData)? Or how can I transform it to a struct or something else in order to append the new child/data?
