Moved to https://github.com/mitranim/gg. This repo is usable but frozen.

Overview

"Missing feature" of the Go packages encoding and fmt: unmarshal arbitrary text into an arbitrary value. Counterpart to the marshaling functionality of fmt.Sprintf("%v").

Docs

See the full documentation at https://godoc.org/github.com/mitranim/untext.

Example

var num int64
err := untext.Parse(`10`, &num)

var inst time.Time
err = untext.Parse(`0001-02-03T04:05:06Z`, &inst)

Changelog

v0.1.3

Breaking: use terms "unmarshal" for []byte inputs and "parse" for string inputs. This conforms to the standard library naming conventions.
