Golang将JSON数组解析为数据结构

Question

I am trying to parse a file which contains JSON data:

[
  {"a" : "1"},
  {"b" : "2"},
  {"c" : "3"}
]

Since this is a JSON array with dynamic keys, I thought I could use:

type data map[string]string

However, I cannot parse the file using a map:

c, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("c")
dec := json.NewDecoder(bytes.NewReader(c))
var d data
dec.Decode(&d)


json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of type main.data

What would be the most simple way to parse a file containing a JSON data is an array (only string to string types) into a Go struct?

EDIT: To further elaborate on the accepted answer -- it's true that my JSON is an array of maps. To make my code work, the file should contain:

{
  "a":"1",
  "b":"2",
  "c":"3"
}

Then it can be read into a map[string]string

It's because your json is actually an array of maps, but you're trying to unmarshall into just a map. Try using the following:

type YourJson struct {
    YourSample []struct {
        data map[string]string
    } 
}
