func Unmarshal ¶
Unmarshal parses the JSON-encoded data and stores the result in the value pointed to by v.
Unmarshal uses the inverse of the encodings that Marshal uses, allocating maps, slices, and pointers as necessary, with the following additional rules:
To unmarshal JSON into a pointer, Unmarshal first handles the case of the JSON being the JSON literal null. In that case, Unmarshal sets the pointer to nil. Otherwise, Unmarshal unmarshals the JSON into the value pointed at by the pointer. If the pointer is nil, Unmarshal allocates a new value for it to point to.
To unmarshal JSON into a struct, Unmarshal matches incoming object keys to the keys used by Marshal (either the struct field name or its tag), preferring an exact match but also accepting a case-insensitive match. Unmarshal will only set exported fields of the struct.
To unmarshal JSON into an interface value, Unmarshal stores one of these in the interface value:
bool, for JSON booleans
float64, for JSON numbers
string, for JSON strings
[]interface{}, for JSON arrays
map[string]interface{}, for JSON objects
nil for JSON null
To unmarshal a JSON array into a slice, Unmarshal resets the slice length to zero and then appends each element to the slice. As a special case, to unmarshal an empty JSON array into a slice, Unmarshal replaces the slice with a new empty slice.
To unmarshal a JSON array into a Go array, Unmarshal decodes JSON array elements into corresponding Go array elements. If the Go array is smaller than the JSON array, the additional JSON array elements are discarded. If the JSON array is smaller than the Go array, the additional Go array elements are set to zero values.
To unmarshal a JSON object into a map, Unmarshal first establishes a map to use, If the map is nil, Unmarshal allocates a new map. Otherwise Unmarshal reuses the existing map, keeping existing entries. Unmarshal then stores key- value pairs from the JSON object into the map. The map's key type must either be a string or implement encoding.TextUnmarshaler.
If a JSON value is not appropriate for a given target type, or if a JSON number overflows the target type, Unmarshal skips that field and completes the unmarshaling as best it can. If no more serious errors are encountered, Unmarshal returns an UnmarshalTypeError describing the earliest such error.
The JSON null value unmarshals into an interface, map, pointer, or slice by setting that Go value to nil. Because null is often used in JSON to mean “not present,” unmarshaling a JSON null into any other Go type has no effect on the value and produces no error.
When unmarshaling quoted strings, invalid UTF-8 or invalid UTF-16 surrogate pairs are not treated as an error. Instead, they are replaced by the Unicode replacement character U+FFFD.
Types ¶
type Decoder ¶
type Decoder struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
A Decoder reads and decodes JSON values from an input stream.
func NewDecoder ¶
NewDecoder returns a new decoder that reads from r.
The decoder introduces its own buffering and may read data from r beyond the JSON values requested.
func (*Decoder) Buffered ¶
Buffered returns a reader of the data remaining in the Decoder's buffer. The reader is valid until the next call to Decode.
type InvalidUnmarshalError ¶
An InvalidUnmarshalError describes an invalid argument passed to Unmarshal. (The argument to Unmarshal must be a non-nil pointer.)
func (*InvalidUnmarshalError) Error ¶
func (e *InvalidUnmarshalError) Error() string
type Number ¶
type Number string
A Number represents a JSON number literal.
type RawMessage ¶
type RawMessage []byte
RawMessage is a raw encoded JSON value. It implements Marshaler and Unmarshaler and can be used to delay JSON decoding or precompute a JSON encoding.
func (*RawMessage) UnmarshalJSON ¶
func (m *RawMessage) UnmarshalJSON(data []byte) error
UnmarshalJSON sets *m to a copy of data.
type SyntaxError ¶
type SyntaxError struct {
Offset int64 // error occurred after reading Offset bytes
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
A SyntaxError is a description of a JSON syntax error.
func (*SyntaxError) Error ¶
func (e *SyntaxError) Error() string
type UnmarshalFieldError ¶
type UnmarshalFieldError struct {
Key string
Type reflect.Type
Field reflect.StructField
}
An UnmarshalFieldError describes a JSON object key that led to an unexported (and therefore unwritable) struct field. (No longer used; kept for compatibility.)
func (*UnmarshalFieldError) Error ¶
func (e *UnmarshalFieldError) Error() string
type UnmarshalTypeError ¶
type UnmarshalTypeError struct {
Value string // description of JSON value - "bool", "array", "number -5"
Type reflect.Type // type of Go value it could not be assigned to
Offset int64 // error occurred after reading Offset bytes
}
An UnmarshalTypeError describes a JSON value that was not appropriate for a value of a specific Go type.
func (*UnmarshalTypeError) Error ¶
func (e *UnmarshalTypeError) Error() string
type Unmarshaler ¶
Unmarshaler is the interface implemented by types that can unmarshal a JSON description of themselves. The input can be assumed to be a valid encoding of a JSON value. UnmarshalJSON must copy the JSON data if it wishes to retain the data after returning.
