Functions

func Decode

func Decode(data []byte) (interface{}, error)

Decode will return either string, int64, []interface{} or map[string]interface{}, interface{} being anything of these 4 types

func Encode

func Encode(value interface{}) ([]byte, error)

Encode accepts either string/[]byte, int/int8/int16/int32/int64, []interface{} or map[string]interface{}, interface{} being anything from mentioned types TODO: consider using io.Writer and writing directly to it
