I have a struct that I want to marshal to JSON. It has a defined field called Foo
(exported as foo
) and a data
interface field to which I want to pass a dynamic struct with additional JSON fields.
However when the data field is an interface instead of the specific struct it never gets exported as JSON. How can I make this work?
package main
import (
"encoding/json"
"fmt"
)
type data interface{}
type foo struct {
Foo string `json:"foo,omitempty"`
data
}
type bar struct {
Bar string `json:"bar,omitempty"`
}
func main() {
b := bar{"bar"}
f := foo{"foo", b}
byt, err := json.Marshal(f)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
fmt.Println(string(byt))
}
I need to output to look like this (it needs to be flat, not nested):
{"foo": "foo", "bar": "bar"}
