如何在Go中将布尔值转换为字符串？

I am trying to convert a bool called isExist to a string (true or false) by using string(isExist) but it does not work. What is the idiomatic way to do this in Go?

use the strconv package

docs

strconv.FormatBool(v)

func FormatBool(b bool) string FormatBool returns "true" or "false"
according to the value of b

you may use strconv.FormatBool like this:

package main

import "fmt"
import "strconv"

func main() {
    isExist := true
    str := strconv.FormatBool(isExist)
    fmt.Println(str)        //true
    fmt.Printf("%q
", str) //"true"
}

or you may use fmt.Sprint like this:

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    isExist := true
    str := fmt.Sprint(isExist)
    fmt.Println(str)        //true
    fmt.Printf("%q
", str) //"true"
}

or write like strconv.FormatBool:

// FormatBool returns "true" or "false" according to the value of b
func FormatBool(b bool) string {
    if b {
        return "true"
    }
    return "false"
}

Just use fmt.Sprintf("%v", isExist), as you would for almost all the types.

The two main options are:

1. strconv.FormatBool(bool) string
2. fmt.Sprintf(string, bool) string with the "%t" or "%v" formatters.

Note that strconv.FormatBool(...) is considerably faster than fmt.Sprintf(...) as demonstrated by the following benchmarks:

func Benchmark_StrconvFormatBool(b *testing.B) {
  for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
    strconv.FormatBool(true)  // => "true"
    strconv.FormatBool(false) // => "false"
  }
}

func Benchmark_FmtSprintfT(b *testing.B) {
  for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
    fmt.Sprintf("%t", true)  // => "true"
    fmt.Sprintf("%t", false) // => "false"
  }
}

func Benchmark_FmtSprintfV(b *testing.B) {
  for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
    fmt.Sprintf("%v", true)  // => "true"
    fmt.Sprintf("%v", false) // => "false"
  }
}

Run as:

$ go test -bench=. ./boolstr_test.go

goarch: amd64
