Overview ¶
Package json implements encoding and decoding of JSON objects as defined in RFC 4627. The mapping between JSON objects and Go values is described in the documentation for the Marshal and Unmarshal functions.
See "JSON and Go" for an introduction to this package: http://golang.org/doc/articles/json_and_go.html

Functions ¶
func Compact ¶
Compact appends to dst the JSON-encoded src with insignificant space characters elided.
func HTMLEscape ¶
HTMLEscape appends to dst the JSON-encoded src with <, >, &, U+2028 and U+2029 characters inside string literals changed to \u003c, \u003e, \u0026, \u2028, \u2029 so that the JSON will be safe to embed inside HTML <script> tags. For historical reasons, web browsers don't honor standard HTML escaping within <script> tags, so an alternative JSON encoding must be used.
func Indent ¶
Indent appends to dst an indented form of the JSON-encoded src. Each element in a JSON object or array begins on a new, indented line beginning with prefix followed by one or more copies of indent according to the indentation nesting. The data appended to dst does not begin with the prefix nor any indentation, and has no trailing newline, to make it easier to embed inside other formatted JSON data.
func Marshal ¶
Marshal returns the JSON encoding of v.
Marshal traverses the value v recursively. If an encountered value implements the Marshaler interface and is not a nil pointer, Marshal calls its MarshalJSON method to produce JSON. The nil pointer exception is not strictly necessary but mimics a similar, necessary exception in the behavior of UnmarshalJSON.
Otherwise, Marshal uses the following type-dependent default encodings:
Boolean values encode as JSON booleans.
Floating point, integer, and Number values encode as JSON numbers.
String values encode as JSON strings. InvalidUTF8Error will be returned if an invalid UTF-8 sequence is encountered. The angle brackets "<" and ">" are escaped to "\u003c" and "\u003e" to keep some browsers from misinterpreting JSON output as HTML. Ampersand "&" is also escaped to "\u0026" for the same reason.
Array and slice values encode as JSON arrays, except that []byte encodes as a base64-encoded string, and a nil slice encodes as the null JSON object.
Struct values encode as JSON objects. Each exported struct field becomes a member of the object unless
- the field's tag is "-", or
- the field is empty and its tag specifies the "omitempty" option.
The empty values are false, 0, any nil pointer or interface value, and any array, slice, map, or string of length zero. The object's default key string is the struct field name but can be specified in the struct field's tag value. The "json" key in the struct field's tag value is the key name, followed by an optional comma and options. Examples:
// Field is ignored by this package. Field int `json:"-"` // Field appears in JSON as key "myName". Field int `json:"myName"` // Field appears in JSON as key "myName" and // the field is omitted from the object if its value is empty, // as defined above. Field int `json:"myName,omitempty"` // Field appears in JSON as key "Field" (the default), but // the field is skipped if empty. // Note the leading comma. Field int `json:",omitempty"`
The "string" option signals that a field is stored as JSON inside a JSON-encoded string. It applies only to fields of string, floating point, or integer types. This extra level of encoding is sometimes used when communicating with JavaScript programs:
Int64String int64 `json:",string"`
The key name will be used if it's a non-empty string consisting of only Unicode letters, digits, dollar signs, percent signs, hyphens, underscores and slashes.
Anonymous struct fields are usually marshaled as if their inner exported fields were fields in the outer struct, subject to the usual Go visibility rules amended as described in the next paragraph. An anonymous struct field with a name given in its JSON tag is treated as having that name, rather than being anonymous.
The Go visibility rules for struct fields are amended for JSON when deciding which field to marshal or unmarshal. If there are multiple fields at the same level, and that level is the least nested (and would therefore be the nesting level selected by the usual Go rules), the following extra rules apply:
1) Of those fields, if any are JSON-tagged, only tagged fields are considered, even if there are multiple untagged fields that would otherwise conflict. 2) If there is exactly one field (tagged or not according to the first rule), that is selected. 3) Otherwise there are multiple fields, and all are ignored; no error occurs.
Handling of anonymous struct fields is new in Go 1.1. Prior to Go 1.1, anonymous struct fields were ignored. To force ignoring of an anonymous struct field in both current and earlier versions, give the field a JSON tag of "-".
Map values encode as JSON objects. The map's key type must be string; the object keys are used directly as map keys.
Pointer values encode as the value pointed to. A nil pointer encodes as the null JSON object.
Interface values encode as the value contained in the interface. A nil interface value encodes as the null JSON object.
Channel, complex, and function values cannot be encoded in JSON. Attempting to encode such a value causes Marshal to return an UnsupportedTypeError.
JSON cannot represent cyclic data structures and Marshal does not handle them. Passing cyclic structures to Marshal will result in an infinite recursion.
func MarshalIndent ¶
MarshalIndent is like Marshal but applies Indent to format the output.
func Unmarshal ¶
Unmarshal parses the JSON-encoded data and stores the result in the value pointed to by v.
Unmarshal uses the inverse of the encodings that Marshal uses, allocating maps, slices, and pointers as necessary, with the following additional rules:
To unmarshal JSON into a pointer, Unmarshal first handles the case of the JSON being the JSON literal null. In that case, Unmarshal sets the pointer to nil. Otherwise, Unmarshal unmarshals the JSON into the value pointed at by the pointer. If the pointer is nil, Unmarshal allocates a new value for it to point to.
To unmarshal JSON into a struct, Unmarshal matches incoming object keys to the keys used by Marshal (either the struct field name or its tag), preferring an exact match but also accepting a case-insensitive match.
To unmarshal JSON into an interface value, Unmarshal stores one of these in the interface value:
bool, for JSON booleans float64, for JSON numbers string, for JSON strings []interface{}, for JSON arrays map[string]interface{}, for JSON objects nil for JSON null
If a JSON value is not appropriate for a given target type, or if a JSON number overflows the target type, Unmarshal skips that field and completes the unmarshalling as best it can. If no more serious errors are encountered, Unmarshal returns an UnmarshalTypeError describing the earliest such error.
The JSON null value unmarshals into an interface, map, pointer, or slice by setting that Go value to nil. Because null is often used in JSON to mean “not present,” unmarshaling a JSON null into any other Go type has no effect on the value and produces no error.
When unmarshaling quoted strings, invalid UTF-8 or invalid UTF-16 surrogate pairs are not treated as an error. Instead, they are replaced by the Unicode replacement character U+FFFD.
func UnmarshalMap ¶
Types ¶
type DBPointer ¶
Refers to a document in some namespace by wrapping a string containing the namespace and the objectId in which the _id of the document is contained
func (DBPointer) MarshalJSON ¶
type Date ¶
type Date int64
Represents the number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch.
func (Date) MarshalJSON ¶
type Decimal128 ¶
type Decimal128 struct {
primitive.Decimal128
}
func (Decimal128) MarshalJSON ¶
func (d128 Decimal128) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)
type Decoder ¶
A Decoder reads and decodes JSON objects from an input stream.
func NewDecoder ¶
NewDecoder returns a new decoder that reads from r.
The decoder introduces its own buffering and may read data from r beyond the JSON values requested.
func (*Decoder) Buffered ¶
Buffered returns a reader of the data remaining in the Decoder's buffer. The reader is valid until the next call to Decode.
func (*Decoder) DecodeMap ¶
Decode reads the next JSON-encoded value from its input and stores it in the value pointed to by v.
See the documentation for Unmarshal for details about the conversion of JSON into a Go value.
func (*Decoder) ScanObject ¶
type Encoder ¶
type Encoder struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
An Encoder writes JSON objects to an output stream.
func NewEncoder ¶
NewEncoder returns a new encoder that writes to w.
type InvalidUTF8Error ¶
type InvalidUTF8Error struct {
S string // the whole string value that caused the error
}
Before Go 1.2, an InvalidUTF8Error was returned by Marshal when attempting to encode a string value with invalid UTF-8 sequences. As of Go 1.2, Marshal instead coerces the string to valid UTF-8 by replacing invalid bytes with the Unicode replacement rune U+FFFD. This error is no longer generated but is kept for backwards compatibility with programs that might mention it.
func (*InvalidUTF8Error) Error ¶
func (e *InvalidUTF8Error) Error() string
type InvalidUnmarshalError ¶
An InvalidUnmarshalError describes an invalid argument passed to Unmarshal. (The argument to Unmarshal must be a non-nil pointer.)

func (*RawMessage) MarshalJSON ¶
func (m *RawMessage) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)
MarshalJSON returns *m as the JSON encoding of m.
func (*RawMessage) UnmarshalJSON ¶
func (m *RawMessage) UnmarshalJSON(data []byte) error
UnmarshalJSON sets *m to a copy of data.

type Undefined struct{}
Represents the literal undefined.
func (Undefined) MarshalJSON ¶
type UnmarshalFieldError ¶
type UnmarshalFieldError struct { Key string Type reflect.Type Field reflect.StructField }
An UnmarshalFieldError describes a JSON object key that led to an unexported (and therefore unwritable) struct field. (No longer used; kept for compatibility.)
func (*UnmarshalFieldError) Error ¶

An UnsupportedTypeError is returned by Marshal when attempting to encode an unsupported value type.
func (*UnsupportedTypeError) Error ¶
func (e *UnsupportedTypeError) Error() string
