I am trying to convert json into a golang nested struct. It is only partially working. Most fields do not parse correctly, although some do. Why doesn't all the data from json get converted into a golang struct? My guess is that I have some mistake between my json format and the golang struct, but I don't see it. Posting to get some other eyes on the problem.
When I run the program, the machine ip address is unmarshalled, but the test run id is not. Here is the output from my main method:
test run id:
machine ip:172.25.148.39
Here is my golang code:
package main
import (
"encoding/json"
"bytes"
"io/ioutil"
"runtime"
"log"
)
func main() {
var testRunConfig TestRunConfig
testRunConfigJson := ReadFile("testrun-config.json")
err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(testRunConfigJson), &testRunConfig)
if err != nil {
HandleError(err)
}
println("test run id:" + testRunConfig.Id)
println("machine ip:" + testRunConfig.Machines[0].IP)
}
//Logs the error, the function and the line number where it was generated
func HandleError(err error) (bool) {
b := false
if err != nil {
// notice that we're using 1, so it will actually log the where
// the error happened, 0 = this function, we don't want that.
pc, fn, line, _ := runtime.Caller(1)
log.Printf("[error] in %s[%s:%d] %v", runtime.FuncForPC(pc).Name(), fn, line, err)
b = true
panic(err)
}
return b
}
func ReadFile(fileName string) string {
dat, err := ioutil.ReadFile(fileName)
HandleError(err)
return string(dat)
}

//"machine" element being a member of a Container is helpful for code flow/logic,
//but is not required as part of the data model (it's duplicate data).
//This is why it's private (not capitalized). Think of it as a "transient" in java.

}
type TestRunConfig struct {

Machines []Machine
}
And here is the json being converted:
