I'm reading a file.json
into memory. It's an array of objects, sample:
[
{"id":123123,"language":"ja-JP","location":"Osaka"}
,{"id":33332,"language":"ja-JP","location":"Tokyo"}
,{"id":31231313,"language":"ja-JP","location":"Kobe"}
]
I want to manipulate certain keys in this JSON file, so that they start with uppercase. Meaning
"language"
becomes "Language"
each time it's found. What I've done so far is to make a struct representing each object, as such:
type sampleStruct struct {
ID int `json:"id"`
Language string `json:"Language"`
Location string `json:"Location"`
}
Here, I define the capitalization. Meaning, id
shouldn't be capitalized, but location
and language
should.
Rest of the code is as such:
func main() {
if len(os.Args) < 2 {
fmt.Println("Missing filename parameter.")
return
}
translationfile, err := ioutil.ReadFile(os.Args[1])
fileIsValid := isValidJSON(string(translationfile))
if !fileIsValid {
fmt.Println("Invalid JSON format for: ", os.Args[1])
return
}
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Can't read file: ", os.Args[1])
panic(err)
}
}
func isValidJSON(str string) bool {
var js json.RawMessage
return json.Unmarshal([]byte(str), &js) == nil
}
// I'm unsure how to iterate through the JSON objects and only uppercase the objects matched in my struct here.
func upperCaseSpecificKeys()
// ...
Desired output, assuming the struct represents the whole data object, transform each key as desired:
[
{"id":123123,"Language":"ja-JP","Location":"Osaka"}
,{"id":33332,"Language":"ja-JP","Location":"Tokyo"}
,{"id":31231313,"Language":"ja-JP","Location":"Kobe"}
]
