Go google.type Adapters

This library provides helper functions for converting between the Go proto messages in google.type (as found in genproto) and Go native types.

Full docs are at https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/googleapis/go-type-adapters.

Example

As a simple example, this library can convert between a google.type.Decimal (proto definition, Go docs) and a Go big.Float:

import (
  "github.com/googleapis/go-type-adapters/adapters"
  dpb "google.golang.org/genproto/type/decimal"
)

func main() {
  decimal := &dpb.Decimal{Value: "12345.678"}
  flt, err := adapters.DecimalToFloat(decimal)
  if err != nil {
    panic(err)
  }
  // flt is a Go *big.Float and can be used as such...
}
