Sorry I am pretty new to golang. I am struggling to understand the scope of variables. I tried to create a global variable to grab the variable out of the local function, however I keep getting an error that it has not been declared. I also tried to do a return statement, however I keep getting a syntax error of not having enough arguments and no return values.
I added something like func main() string { return Test2}
But I am doing something wrong, can't get my head around this issue
I tried creating a global variable to store the value outside the local function. I also tried to create a return function to grab the variable.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/aws/session"
"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go/service/dynamodb"
)
var Test2 string
func main() {
sess, _ := session.NewSession(&aws.Config{
Region: aws.String("us-east-1")},
)
svc := dynamodb.New(sess)
input := &dynamodb.GetItemInput{
Key: map[string]*dynamodb.AttributeValue{
"id": {
S: aws.String("ami-xxxxx"),
},
},
TableName: aws.String("table"),
}
result, _ := svc.GetItem(input)
Test := result.Item["id"].S
Test2 := *Test
fmt.Println(Test2)
}
fmt.Println(Test2)
syntax error: non-declaration statement outside function body
