如何在Golang中获取JSON唯一字段的名称和深度嵌套的子字段的值？

Question

I have a json file that looks like this

{
  "links": {
    "uniqueurl_1": {
      "a": {
        "b": [
          "stuff"
        ],
        "I": {
          "want": {
            "to": "morestuff",
            "go": {
              "in": {
                "here": {
                  "and": "array",
                  "itis": {
                    "very": "string",
                    "deep": "stringIwant"
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

And I want to get the uniqueurl_1 (that is always different for each link), and I also want to get the "deep" field's value ("stringIwant")

I know if it's not too deeply nested, you can just create a bunch of structs in Golang, but when it's this deep would it still be the only/best way to do it?

Answer 1

in your JSON is missing opening brace. Have a try in this way:

{
  "links": {
    "uniqueurl_1": {
      "a": {
        "b": [
          "stuff"
        ],
        "I": {
          "want": {
            "to": "morestuff",
            "go": {
              "in": {
                "here": {
                  "and": "array",
                  "itis": {
                    "very": "string",
                    "deep": "stringIwant"
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

And use the following code to access you data:

package main

import "encoding/json"

func UnmarshalNotSoDeep(data []byte) (NotSoDeep, error) {
    var r NotSoDeep
    err := json.Unmarshal(data, &r)
    return r, err
}

func (r *NotSoDeep) Marshal() ([]byte, error) {
    return json.Marshal(r)
}

type NotSoDeep struct {
    Links Links `json:"links"`
}

type Links struct {
    Uniqueurl1 Uniqueurl1 `json:"uniqueurl_1"`
}

type Uniqueurl1 struct {
    A A `json:"a"`
}

type A struct {
    B []string `json:"b"`
    I I        `json:"I"`
}

type I struct {
    Want Want `json:"want"`
}

type Want struct {
    To string `json:"to"`
    Go Go     `json:"go"`
}

type Go struct {
    In In `json:"in"`
}

type In struct {
    Here Here `json:"here"`
}

type Here struct {
    And  string `json:"and"` 
    Itis Itis   `json:"itis"`
}

type Itis struct {
    Very string `json:"very"`
    Deep string `json:"deep"`
}
