go-field

Package field provides tools for working with fields (i.e., something with a name and value pair), for the Go programming-language (golang).

Documention

Online documentation, which includes examples, can be found at: http://godoc.org/codeberg.org/reiver/go-field

Examples

Here are some examples of fields being created.

import "codeberg.org/reiver/go-field"

// field.Field[string]
field1 := field.String("fruit", "cherry")

// field.Field[string]
field2 := field.Stringer("ip-address", ipv4)

// field.Field[error]
field3 := field.Error("error", err)

// field.Field[string]
field4 := field.Ord("index", 4)

// field.Field[int]
field5 := field.Ord("size", len(a))

// field.Field[time.Duration]
field6 := field.Duration("delta", 5 * time.Minute)

// field.Field[time.Bool]
field7 := field.Bool("exist", true)

// field.Field[time.Time]
field8 := field.Time("when-created", time.Now())

Here is how one can get the name and value of a field:

name := field8.FieldName()

value := field8.FieldValue()

You can also always get a string version of the value of a field with:

valueString := field8.FieldValueString()

Here is how to turn any type of field into a field.Field[any]:

var fa field.Field[any] = field.FieldAny(field1)
