TIL: panic(spew.Sdump(myVar))
I use autogold for my tests now, and I use the -update feature already twice. That's really handy.

Best/Easiest Rest Framework
this way, you can switch around framework easily without changing the business logic, and all business logic easily testable without thinking about serialization at all (just matching the input struct and output struct, for example using https://github.com/hexops/autogold)

Some annoying moments in Golang
https://mholt.github.io/json-to-go/ is a nice tool for generating a struct definition to fit some sample JSON.

Need a pointer on how I can unmarshal this json
json-to-go is your friend.

Ask HN: What are some Golang tools you can't live without?
JSON to struct. I use this about 100 times a day, no joke.

convert interface{} to []interface{}
Do your best to get static types on everything. Play a game with yourself where interface{} is banned and try to do your work. One of the most common sources of such loosely-typed values in JSON, so I'll point out this automatic struct generator for instance. If you have questions about a specific place you don't see how to avoid interface, feel free to ask. Every once in a while I do have to reach for something like this, but it should be rare.

how to efficiently create structs to match the json response
But given we know ChatGPT can't accurately generate structs from even moderately complex json objects why bother doing all of that legwork of verifying and chiding chatgpt, when you can just drop it into a tool like https://mholt.github.io/json-to-go/ and get a correct struct in a fraction of the time?
- How to parse a Kubernetes YAML in Go?
- Is there a library or tool I can use to avoid manually setting json keys i.e. ‘json:”name”’ next to fields in structs?
-
Do we have any vscode plugin to convert json to struct in Go?
I use https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=maracko.json-to-go, which is an extension version of https://mholt.github.io/json-to-go/

Need help with getting the grandchild in nested JSON
I think using struct in such cases is almost always the right approach. There are tools which generates go structs from json this.
