Overview

Package jsonpatch provides sane bindings to RFC 6902 (JSON Patch) and RFC 7386 (JSON Merge Patch).

To read in a Patch or Merge Patch, declare the variable, then use json.Unmarshal(); like you would any other JSON document:

bytes, err := ioutil.ReadAll(inputstream)
var patch jsonpatch.JSONPatch
err := json.Unmarshal(bytes, &patch)
err := patch.Apply(oldObj, &newObj)

or

bytes, err := ioutil.ReadAll(inputstream)
var patch jsonpatch.JSONMergePatch
err := json.Unmarshal(bytes, &patch)
err := patch.Apply(oldObj, &newObj)

It does this by wrapping github.com/evanphx/json-patch ; there's very little actual code here; it is just a set of wrappers to provide a nicer interface.
