Golang dynamic struct

Package dynamic struct provides possibility to dynamically, in runtime, extend or merge existing defined structs or to provide completely new struct.

Main features:

  • Building completely new struct in runtime
  • Extending existing struct in runtime
  • Merging multiple structs in runtime
  • Adding new fields into struct
  • Removing existing fields from struct
  • Modifying fields' types and tags
  • Easy reading of dynamic structs
  • Mapping dynamic struct with set values to existing struct
  • Make slices and maps of dynamic structs

Works out-of-the-box with:

Types

type Builder 

type Builder interface {
	// AddField creates new struct's field.
	// It expects field's name, type and string.
	// Type is provided as an instance of some golang type.
	// Tag is provided as classical golang field tag.
	//
	// builder.AddField("SomeFloatField", 0.0, `json:"boolean" validate:"gte=10"`)
	//
	AddField(name string, typ interface{}, tag string) Builder
	// RemoveField removes existing struct's field.
	//
	// builder.RemoveField("SomeFloatField")
	//
	RemoveField(name string) Builder
	// HasField checks if struct has a field with a given name.
	//
	// if builder.HasField("SomeFloatField") { ...
	//
	HasField(name string) bool
	// GetField returns struct's field definition.
	// If there is no such field, it returns nil.
	// Usable to edit existing struct's field.
	//
	// field := builder.GetField("SomeFloatField")
	//
	GetField(name string) FieldConfig
	// Build returns definition for dynamic struct.
	// Definition can be used to create new instances.
	//
	// dStruct := builder.Build()
	//
	Build() DynamicStruct
}

Builder holds all fields' definitions for desired structs. It gives opportunity to add or remove fields, or to edit existing ones. In the end, it provides definition for dynamic structs, used to create new instances.

func ExtendStruct 

func ExtendStruct(value interface{}) Builder

ExtendStruct extends existing instance of struct and returns new instance of Builder interface.

builder := dynamicstruct.MergeStructs(MyStruct{})

func MergeStructs 

func MergeStructs(values ...interface{}) Builder

MergeStructs merges a list of existing instances of structs and returns new instance of Builder interface.

builder := dynamicstruct.MergeStructs(MyStructOne{}, MyStructTwo{}, MyStructThree{})

func NewStruct 

func NewStruct() Builder

NewStruct returns new clean instance of Builder interface for defining fresh dynamic struct.

builder := dynamicstruct.NewStruct()

type DynamicStruct 

type DynamicStruct interface {
	// New provides new instance of defined dynamic struct.
	//
	// value := dStruct.New()
	//
	New() interface{}

	// NewSliceOfStructs provides new slice of defined dynamic struct, with 0 length and capacity.
	//
	// value := dStruct.NewSliceOfStructs()
	//
	NewSliceOfStructs() interface{}

	// New provides new map of defined dynamic struct with desired key type.
	//
	// value := dStruct.NewMapOfStructs("")
	//
	NewMapOfStructs(key interface{}) interface{}
}

DynamicStruct contains defined dynamic struct. This definition can't be changed anymore, once is built. It provides a method for creating new instances of same defintion.

Field is a wrapper for struct's field's value. It provides methods for easier field's value reading.

type FieldConfig 

type FieldConfig interface {

	//
	SetTag(tag string) FieldConfig
}

FieldConfig holds single field's definition. It provides possibility to edit field's type and tag.

	//
	GetField(name string) Field

	//
	// for _, field := range reader.GetAllFields() { ...
	//
	GetAllFields() []Field
	// ToStruct maps all read values to passed instance of struct, by setting
	// all its values for fields with same names.
	// It returns an error if argument is not a pointer to a struct.
	//
	// err := reader.ToStruct(&instance)
	//
	ToStruct(value interface{}) error
	// ToSliceOfReaders returns a list of Reader interfaces if value is representation
	// of slice itself.
	//
	// readers := reader.ToReaderSlice()
	//
	ToSliceOfReaders() []Reader
	// ToMapReaderOfReaders returns a map of Reader interfaces if value is representation
	// of map itself with some key type.
	//
	// readers := reader.ToReaderMap()
	//
	ToMapReaderOfReaders() map[interface{}]Reader
	// GetValue returns original value used in reader.
	//
	// instance := reader.GetValue()
	//
	GetValue() interface{}
}

Reader is helper interface which provides possibility to access struct's fields' values, reads and provides theirs values.

func NewReader 

func NewReader(value interface{}) Reader

NewReader reads struct instance and provides instance of Reader interface to give possibility to read all fields' values.
