Variables

var (
	// Separate nested key components with dots, e.g. "a.b.1.c.d"
	DotStyle = SeparatorStyle{Middle: "."}

	// Separate with path-like slashes, e.g. a/b/1/c/d
	PathStyle = SeparatorStyle{Middle: "/"}

	// Separate ala Rails, e.g. "a[b][c][1][d]"
	RailsStyle = SeparatorStyle{Before: "[", After: "]"}

	// Separate with underscores, e.g. "a_b_1_c_d"
	UnderscoreStyle = SeparatorStyle{Middle: "_"}
)

Default styles

var NotValidInputError = errors.New("Not a valid input: map or slice")

Nested input must be a map or slice

Functions

func Flatten

func Flatten(nested map[string]interface{}, prefix string, style SeparatorStyle) (map[string]interface{}, error)

Flatten generates a flat map from a nested one. The original may include values of type map, slice and scalar, but not struct. Keys in the flat map will be a compound of descending map keys and slice iterations. The presentation of keys is set by style. A prefix is joined to each key.

Types

type SeparatorStyle

type SeparatorStyle struct {
	Before string // Prepend to key
	Middle string // Add between keys
	After  string // Append to key
}
