func ConvertFrom(item *dynamodb.AttributeValue, v interface{}) (err error)
ConvertFrom accepts a *dynamodb.AttributeValue and converts it to any interface{}.
If v contains any structs, the result is first converted it to a interface{}, then JSON encoded/decoded it to convert to a struct, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use Unmarshal instead
▹ Example
func ConvertFromList(item []*dynamodb.AttributeValue, v interface{}) (err error)
ConvertFromList accepts a []*dynamodb.AttributeValue and converts it to an array or slice.
If v contains any structs, the result is first converted it to a []interface{}, then JSON encoded/decoded it to convert to a typed array or slice, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use UnmarshalList instead
func ConvertFromMap(item map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue, v interface{}) (err error)
ConvertFromMap accepts a map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue and converts it to a map[string]interface{} or struct.
If v points to a struct, the result is first converted it to a map[string]interface{}, then JSON encoded/decoded it to convert to a struct, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use UnmarshalMap instead
func ConvertTo(in interface{}) (item *dynamodb.AttributeValue, err error)
ConvertTo accepts any interface{} and converts it to a *dynamodb.AttributeValue.
If in contains any structs, it is first JSON encoded/decoded it to convert it to a interface{}, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use Marshal instead
▹ Example
func ConvertToList(in interface{}) (item []*dynamodb.AttributeValue, err error)
ConvertToList accepts an array or slice and converts it to a []*dynamodb.AttributeValue.
Converting []byte fields to dynamodb.AttributeValue are only currently supported if the input is a map[string]interface{} type. []byte within typed structs are not converted correctly and are converted into base64 strings. This is a known bug, and will be fixed in a later release.
If in contains any structs, it is first JSON encoded/decoded it to convert it to a []interface{}, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use MarshalList instead
func ConvertToMap(in interface{}) (item map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue, err error)
ConvertToMap accepts a map[string]interface{} or struct and converts it to a map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue.
If in contains any structs, it is first JSON encoded/decoded it to convert it to a map[string]interface{}, so `json` struct tags are respected.
Deprecated: Use MarshalMap instead
func Marshal(in interface{}) (*dynamodb.AttributeValue, error)
Marshal will serialize the passed in Go value type into a DynamoDB AttributeValue type. This value can be used in DynamoDB API operations to simplify marshaling your Go value types into AttributeValues.
Marshal will recursively transverse the passed in value marshaling its contents into a AttributeValue. Marshal supports basic scalars (int,uint,float,bool,string), maps, slices, and structs. Anonymous nested types are flattened based on Go anonymous type visibility.
Marshaling slices to AttributeValue will default to a List for all types except for []byte and [][]byte. []byte will be marshaled as Binary data (B), and [][]byte will be marshaled as binary data set (BS).
`dynamodbav` struct tag can be used to control how the value will be marshaled into a AttributeValue.
// Field is ignored Field int `dynamodbav:"-"` // Field AttributeValue map key "myName" Field int `dynamodbav:"myName"` // Field AttributeValue map key "myName", and // Field is omitted if it is empty Field int `dynamodbav:"myName,omitempty"` // Field AttributeValue map key "Field", and // Field is omitted if it is empty Field int `dynamodbav:",omitempty"` // Field's elems will be omitted if empty // only valid for slices, and maps. Field []string `dynamodbav:",omitemptyelem"` // Field will be marshaled as a AttributeValue string // only value for number types, (int,uint,float) Field int `dynamodbav:",string"` // Field will be marshaled as a binary set Field [][]byte `dynamodbav:",binaryset"` // Field will be marshaled as a number set Field []int `dynamodbav:",numberset"` // Field will be marshaled as a string set Field []string `dynamodbav:",stringset"` // Field will be marshaled as Unix time number in seconds. // This tag is only valid with time.Time typed struct fields. // Important to note that zero value time as unixtime is not 0 seconds // from January 1, 1970 UTC, but -62135596800. Which is seconds between // January 1, 0001 UTC, and January 1, 0001 UTC. Field time.Time `dynamodbav:",unixtime"`
The omitempty tag is only used during Marshaling and is ignored for Unmarshal. Any zero value or a value when marshaled results in a AttributeValue NULL will be added to AttributeValue Maps during struct marshal. The omitemptyelem tag works the same as omitempty except it applies to maps and slices instead of struct fields, and will not be included in the marshaled AttributeValue Map, List, or Set.
For convenience and backwards compatibility with ConvertTo functions json struct tags are supported by the Marshal and Unmarshal. If both json and dynamodbav struct tags are provided the json tag will be ignored in favor of dynamodbav.
All struct fields and with anonymous fields, are marshaled unless the any of the following conditions are meet.
Pointer and interfaces values encode as the value pointed to or contained in the interface. A nil value encodes as the AttributeValue NULL value.
Channel, complex, and function values are not encoded and will be skipped when walking the value to be marshaled.
When marshaling any error that occurs will halt the marshal and return the error.
Marshal cannot represent cyclic data structures and will not handle them. Passing cyclic structures to Marshal will result in an infinite recursion.
▹ Example
func MarshalList(in interface{}) ([]*dynamodb.AttributeValue, error)
MarshalList is an alias for Marshal func which marshals Go value type to a slice of AttributeValues.
func MarshalMap(in interface{}) (map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue, error)
MarshalMap is an alias for Marshal func which marshals Go value type to a map of AttributeValues.
This is useful for DynamoDB APIs such as PutItem.
func Unmarshal(av *dynamodb.AttributeValue, out interface{}) error
Unmarshal will unmarshal DynamoDB AttributeValues to Go value types. Both generic interface{} and concrete types are valid unmarshal destination types.
Unmarshal will allocate maps, slices, and pointers as needed to unmarshal the AttributeValue into the provided type value.
When unmarshaling AttributeValues into structs Unmarshal matches the field names of the struct to the AttributeValue Map keys. Initially it will look for exact field name matching, but will fall back to case insensitive if not exact match is found.
With the exception of omitempty, omitemptyelem, binaryset, numberset and stringset all struct tags used by Marshal are also used by Unmarshal.
When decoding AttributeValues to interfaces Unmarshal will use the following types.
[]byte, AV Binary (B)
[][]byte, AV Binary Set (BS)
bool, AV Boolean (BOOL)
[]interface{}, AV List (L)
map[string]interface{}, AV Map (M)
float64, AV Number (N)
Number, AV Number (N) with UseNumber set
[]float64, AV Number Set (NS)
[]Number, AV Number Set (NS) with UseNumber set
string, AV String (S)
[]string, AV String Set (SS)
If the Decoder option, UseNumber is set numbers will be unmarshaled as Number values instead of float64. Use this to maintain the original string formating of the number as it was represented in the AttributeValue. In addition provides additional opportunities to parse the number string based on individual use cases.
When unmarshaling any error that occurs will halt the unmarshal and return the error.
The output value provided must be a non-nil pointer
