/*
|
||
|
Package form Decodes url.Values into Go value(s) and Encodes Go value(s) into url.Values.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
It has the following features:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Primitives types cause zero allocations.
|
||
|
- Supports map of almost all types.
|
||
|
- Supports both Numbered and Normal arrays eg. "Array[0]" and just "Array"
|
||
|
with multiple values passed.
|
||
|
- Slice honours the specified index. eg. if "Slice[2]" is the only Slice
|
||
|
value passed down, it will be put at index 2; if slice isn't big enough
|
||
|
it will be expanded.
|
||
|
- Array honours the specified index. eg. if "Array[2]" is the only Array
|
||
|
value passed down, it will be put at index 2; if array isn't big enough
|
||
|
a warning will be printed and value ignored.
|
||
|
- Only creates objects as necessary eg. if no `array` or `map` values are
|
||
|
passed down, the `array` and `map` are left as their default values in
|
||
|
the struct.
|
||
|
- Allows for Custom Type registration.
|
||
|
- Handles time.Time using RFC3339 time format by default,
|
||
|
but can easily be changed by registering a Custom Type, see below.
|
||
|
- Handles Encoding & Decoding of almost all Go types eg. can Decode into
|
||
|
struct, array, map, int... and Encode a struct, array, map, int...
|
||
|

Common Questions
|
||
|
|
||
|
Questions
|
||
|
|
||
|
Does it support encoding.TextUnmarshaler?
|
||
|
No because TextUnmarshaler only accepts []byte but posted values can have
|
||
|
multiple values, so is not suitable.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Mixing array/slice with array[idx]/slice[idx], in which order are they parsed?
|
||
|
array/slice then array[idx]/slice[idx]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Supported Types
|
||
|
|
||
|
out of the box supported types
|
||
|
|
||
|
- string
|
||
|
- bool
|
||
|
- int, int8, int16, int32, int64
|
||
|
- uint, uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64
|
||
|
- float32, float64
|
||
|
- struct and anonymous struct
|
||
|
- interface{}
|
||
|
- time.Time` - by default using RFC3339
|
||
|
- a `pointer` to one of the above types
|
||
|
- slice, array
|
||
|
- map
|
||
|
- `custom types` can override any of the above types
|
||
|
- many other types may be supported inherently (eg. bson.ObjectId is
|
||
|
type ObjectId string, which will get populated by the string type
|
||
|
|
||
|
**NOTE**: map, struct and slice nesting are ad infinitum.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
symbols
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Use symbol `.` for separating fields/structs. (eg. `structfield.field`)
|
||
|
- Use `[index or key]` for access to index of a slice/array or key for map.
|
||
|
(eg. `arrayfield[0]`, `mapfield[keyvalue]`)

Registering Custom Types
|
||
|
|
||
|
Decoder
|
||
|
|
||
|
decoder.RegisterCustomTypeFunc(func(vals []string) (interface{}, error) {
|
||
|
return time.Parse("2006-01-02", vals[0])
|
||
|
}, time.Time{})
|
||
|
|
||
|
ADDITIONAL: if a struct type is registered, the function will only be called
|
||
|
if a url.Value exists for the struct and not just the struct fields
|
||
|
eg. url.Values{"User":"Name%3Djoeybloggs"} will call the custom type function
|
||
|
with 'User' as the type, however url.Values{"User.Name":"joeybloggs"} will not.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Encoder
|
||
|
|
||
|
encoder.RegisterCustomTypeFunc(func(x interface{}) ([]string, error) {
|
||
|
return []string{x.(time.Time).Format("2006-01-02")}, nil
|
||
|
}, time.Time{})
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ignoring Fields
|
||
|
|
||
|
you can tell form to ignore fields using `-` in the tag
|
||
|
|
||
|
type MyStruct struct {
|
||
|
Field string `form:"-"`
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
Omitempty
|
||
|
|
||
|
you can tell form to omit empty fields using `,omitempty` or `FieldName,omitempty` in the tag
|
||
|
|
||
|
type MyStruct struct {
|
||
|
Field string `form:",omitempty"`
|
||
|
Field2 string `form:"CustomFieldName,omitempty"`
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
To maximize compatibility with other systems the Encoder attempts
|
||
|
to avoid using array indexes in url.Values if at all possible.
|
||
|
|
||
|
eg.
|
||
|
|
||
|
// A struct field of
|
||
|
Field []string{"1", "2", "3"}
|
||
|
|
||
|
// will be output a url.Value as
|
||
|
"Field": []string{"1", "2", "3"}
|
||
|
|
||
|
and not
|
||
|
"Field[0]": []string{"1"}
|
||
|
"Field[1]": []string{"2"}
|
||
|
"Field[2]": []string{"3"}
|
||
|
|
||
|
// however there are times where it is unavoidable, like with pointers
|
||
|
i := int(1)
|
||
|
Field []*string{nil, nil, &i}
|
||
|
|
||
|
// to avoid index 1 and 2 must use index
|
||
|
"Field[2]": []string{"1"}
|
||
