Apologies for this noob question.
I am trying to convert a string to json. The string is already in json format like
{ "system1": "Service 1", "System2": "Service2" }
or
{ "system1": "Service 1", "device": "Service 10", "Something": "port 22" }
and so on. The number of this key-value pair is not known at compile time, and is known only at the runtime.
I am able to load it to a struct, with predefined fixed keynames, but since the number of keys are varying, I am stuck at generating a json with respect to the structure of the string.
I am not looking for pushing it to a string : []map[string]string and my aim is to generate individually generate the key-value pair similar to python's json.loads on the string (Not prefering string : []map[string]string because to get an element out of it, I have to iterate over it, which takes O(n) time, but since the keys are known in runtime, and not a list, I could directly call it as if value.Key. Please correct me if I am wrong.)
The way I could do it with python was,
>>> a = { "system1": "Service 1", "System2": "Service2" }
>>> b = json.loads(a)
>>> b
{u'system1': u'Service 1', u'System2': u'Service2'}
and I could access elements as
b['system1']
without iterating over b, because it is not a slice.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks, Scott.
