defaults

Initialize structs with default values

• Supports almost all kind of types
  • Scalar types
    • int/8/16/32/64, uint/8/16/32/64, float32/64
    • uintptr, bool, string
  • Complex types
    • map, slice, struct
  • Nested types
    • map[K1]map[K2]Struct, []map[K1]Struct[]
  • Aliased types
    • time.Duration
    • e.g., type Enum string
  • Pointer types
    • e.g., *SampleStruct, *int
• Recursively initializes fields in a struct
• Dynamically sets default values by defaults.Setter interface
• Preserves non-initial values from being reset with a default value

Usage

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"fmt"
	"math/rand"

)
