将json数组解组到go struct中（数组位于JSON字符串的中间

Question

I am new to Go. I am working with a weather API. I have commented out the sections that cause the error. I have seen several other links that have a similar problem, however none of them seem to have the array in the middle of the JSON string. I'm sure there is a way to define the struct with a slice. I can't seem to get get the syntax to allow it. Here is where I'm stuck:

package main

import (
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "io/ioutil"
    "log"
    "net/http"
)

// WeatherData struct to collect data from the API call
type WeatherData struct {
    Wind Wind
    Sys  Sys
    // Weather Weather
    Name string `json:"name"`
}

////////////// ERROR when unmarshalling this struct /////////
// Weather provides basic weather info
// type Weather struct {
//  ID      int    `json:"id"`
//  Descrip string `json:"description"`
//  Icon    string `json:"icon"`
// }
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

// Sys includes sunrise, sunset, country, etc.
type Sys struct {
    Country string `json:"country"`
}

// Wind struct to get specific wind characteristics
type Wind struct {
    Speed  float64 `json:"speed"`
    Degree float64 `json:"deg"`
    Gust   float64 `json:"gust"`
}

func main() {
    res, getErr := http.Get("http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?zip=REMOVED,us&appid=REMOVEDBUTWILLPOSTJSONData")
    if getErr != nil {
        log.Fatalln("http.Get error: ", getErr)
    }
    defer res.Body.Close()
    body, readErr := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
    if readErr != nil {
        log.Fatalln("Read Error: ", readErr)
    }
//////////// UNABLE TO UNMARSHAL the array that passes through here ////
    var data WeatherData
    if err := json.Unmarshal(body, &data); err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    fmt.Println("Wind gusts: ", data.Wind.Gust)
    fmt.Println("Wind speed: ", data.Wind.Speed)
    fmt.Println("Wind degrees: ", data.Wind.Degree)

    fmt.Println("Country is: ", data.Sys.Country)
    fmt.Println("City is: ", data.Name)

///////////////// CAN'T ACCESS Description...or anything in Weather
// fmt.Println("Country is: ", data.Weather.Descrip) // cannot access due to this portion being inside an array

}



/////////////////THIS IS THE JSON DATA THAT IS AVAILABLE ///////////

You have to define slice of Weather struct in WeatherData .

Uncomment Weather struct and update WeatherData struct to following.

// WeatherData struct to collect data from the API call
type WeatherData struct {
    Wind    Wind      `json:"wind"`
    Sys     Sys       `json:"sys"`
    Weather []Weather `json:"weather"`
    Name    string    `json:"name"`
}

Please have a look on example code: https://play.golang.org/p/4KFqRuxcx2
