go-conv | Fast conversions across various Go types with a simple API

go-conv is a Go library. go-conv has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

All conversion functions accept any type of value for conversion, if unable to find a reasonable conversion path they will return the target types zero value and an error. Example: // The zero value and a non-nil error is returned on failure. fmt.Println(conv.Int("Foo")) // Conversions are allowed as long as the underlying type is convertable, for // example: type MyString string fmt.Println(conv.Int(MyString("42"))) // 42, nil // Pointers will be dereferenced when appropriate. str := "42" fmt.Println(conv.Int(&str)) // 42, nil // You may infer values from the base type of a pointer, giving you one // function signature for all conversions. This may be convenient when the // types are not known until runtime and reflection must be used. var val int err := conv.Infer(&val, `42`) fmt.Println(val, err) // 42, nil Output: 0 cannot convert "Foo" (type string) to int 42 42 42 .
