Types

type Codec

type Codec interface {
	Marshaler() Marshaler
	Unmarshaler() Unmarshaler
}

Codec is implemented by objects that can produce marshalers and unmarshalers for a given object type.

Marshaler returns a Marshaler implementation that can marshal instances of a particular type into a byte slice.

Unmarshaler returns a Unmarshaler implementation that can unmarshal instances of a particular type from a byte slice.

type Marshaler

type Marshaler func(interface{}) ([]byte, error)

Marshaler is the interface implemented by objects that can produce a byte representation of another object.

type Unmarshaler

type Unmarshaler func([]byte, interface{}) error

Unmarshaler is the interface implemented by objects that can unmarshal a byte representation of an object into an object instance.
