From last 2 days I'm somehow stuck with JSON and Go. My aim is very simple, one Go program that can read a JSON file, output it correctly and append some items to that JSON and then rewrite it back to disk.
Saved JSON File.
{
"Category": ["food","music"],
"Time(min)": "351",
"Channel": {
"d2d": 10,
"mkbhd": 8,
"coding Train": 24
},
"Info": {
"Date":{
"date":["vid_id1","vid_id2","vid_id3"],
"02/11/2019":["id1","id2","id3"],
"03/11/2019":["SonwZ6MF5BE","8mP5xOg7ijs","sc2ysHjSaXU"]
},
"Videos":{
"videos": ["Title","Category","Channel","length"],
"sc2ysHjSaXU":["Bob Marley - as melhores - so saudade","Music","So Saudade","82"],
"SonwZ6MF5BE":["Golang REST API With Mux","Science & Technology","Traversy Media","44"],
"8mP5xOg7ijs":["Top 15 Funniest Friends Moments","Entertainment","DjLj11","61"]
}
}
}
I have successfully parsed the JSON in Go but then when I try to get JSON["Info"]["Date"] it throws interface error. I can't make a specific struct because all the items will dynamically change whenever the code/API gets called.
The Code that I'm using to parse the data
// Open our jsonFile
jsonFile, err := os.Open("yt.json")
if err != nil {fmt.Println(err)}
fmt.Println("Successfully Opened yt.json")
defer jsonFile.Close()
byteValue, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(jsonFile)
var result map[string]interface{}
json.Unmarshal([]byte(byteValue), &result)
json_data := result["Category"] //returns correct ans
json_data := result["Info"]["Date"] // returns error - type interface {} does not support indexing
Any help/lead is highly appreciated. Thanks a-lot in advance.
Unfortunately, you have to assert types every time you access the parsed data:
date := result["Info"].(map[string]interface{})["Date"]
Now date
is map[string]interface{}
, but its statically known type is still interface{}
.
That means you either need to assume the type in advance or have some kind of a type switch if the structure may vary.
you can't access inner properties with result[][]
. You need to do something like follows,
info:= result["Info"]
v := info.(map[string]interface{})
json_data = v["Date"]
