Is there something like Ruby's awesome_print in Go?
For example in Ruby you could write:
require 'ap'
x = {a:1,b:2} // also works for class
ap x
the output would be:
{
"a" => 1,
"b" => 2
}
closest thing that I could found is Printf("%#v", x)
If your goal is to avoid importing a third-party package, your other option is to use json.MarshalIndent:
x := map[string]interface{}{"a": 1, "b": 2}
b, err := json.MarshalIndent(x, "", " ")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("error:", err)
}
fmt.Print(string(b))
Output:
{
"a": 1,
"b": 2
}
