Trying to check if a struct in some slice contains a value of a given field so i wrote this
func main() {
//test
Objs := []Obj{{1,"xxx"},{2,"yyy"},{3,"zzz"}}
res := containsStructFieldValue(Objs,"X",1)
fmt.Println(res)
}
type Obj struct {
X int
Y string
}
func containsStructFieldValue(slice []Obj ,fieldName string,fieldValueToCheck interface {}) bool{
for _,s := range slice{
r := reflect.ValueOf(s)
f := r.FieldByName(fieldName)
if f.IsValid(){
if f.Interface() == fieldValueToCheck{
return true //a field with the given value exists
}
}
}
return false
}
i need it to work for any given struct type but when i tried slice []interface
as the parameter i found out that its not possible, any idea on how to make the above method work for any struct type?
