Package gorilla/schema fills a struct with form values. The basic usage is really simple. Given this struct: ...we can fill it passing a map to the Load() function: This is just a simple example and it doesn't make a lot of sense to create the map manually. Typically it will come from a http.Request object and will be of type url.Values: http.Request.Form or http.Request.MultipartForm: Note: it is a good idea to set a Decoder instance as a package global, because it caches meta-data about structs, and a instance can be shared safely: To define custom names for fields, use a struct tag "schema". To not populate certain fields, use a dash for the name and it will be ignored: The supported field types in the destination struct are: Non-supported types are simply ignored, however custom types can be registered to be converted. To fill nested structs, keys must use a dotted notation as the "path" for the field. So for example, to fill the struct Person below: ...the source map must have the keys "Name", "Phone.Label" and "Phone.Number". This means that an HTML form to fill a Person struct must look like this: Single values are filled using the first value for a key from the source map. Slices are filled using all values for a key from the source map. So to fill a Person with multiple Phone values, like: ...an HTML form that accepts three Phone values would look like this: Notice that only for slices of structs the slice index is required. This is needed for disambiguation: if the nested struct also had a slice field, we could not translate multiple values to it if we did not use an index for the parent struct.
