Functions

func PropertiesToList

func PropertiesToList(flatProperties *properties.Map, key string) map[string]interface{}

PropertiesToList parses a property that has a list data type and returns it in the map[string]interface{} type consumed by the JSON schema parser.

func PropertiesToMap

func PropertiesToMap(flatProperties *properties.Map, levels int) map[string]interface{}

PropertiesToMap converts properties.Map data structures to map[string]interface with the specified number of key levels. The Arduino project configuration fields have an odd usage of the properties.Map format. Dots may sometimes indicate nested keys, but in other cases they are merely a character in the key string. There are cases where a completely programmatic recursion of the properties into a fully nested structure would result in the impossibility of some keys having both a string and a map type, which is not supported. For this reason, it's necessary to manually configure the recursion of key levels on a case-by-case basis. In the event a full recursion of key levels is desired, set the levels argument to a value <1.
