I have some valid JSON files and some which are not (without the surrounding brackets)
Currently I have a method for each case: one uses json.Unmarshal for the valid ones and the other uses json.NewDecoder for the bracketless ones.
How can I merge it into one function what can handle both cases?
EDIT: Here is the code of the two cases:
func getDrivers() []Drivers {
raw, err := ioutil.ReadFile("/home/ubuntu/drivers.json")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err.Error())
os.Exit(1)
}
var d []Drivers
json.Unmarshal(raw, &d)
return d
}
func getMetrics() []Metrics {
file, err := os.Open("/home/ubuntu/metrics.json")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("bad err!")
}
r := bufio.NewReader(file)
dec := json.NewDecoder(r)
// while the array contains values
var metrics []Metrics
for dec.More() {
var m Metrics
err := dec.Decode(&m)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
metrics = append(metrics, m)
}
return metrics
}
Thank you
