I have a nested struct
type Posts struct {
Id int
CreatedAt time.Time
Data struct {
Title string
UserName string
}
}
I want to create a Data object but var innerData Posts.Data
doesn't seem to work. I don't want to create separate Data struct
because I'm planning to avoid name collusions by having multiple structs which will have different inner structs named Data.
You can't. Posts.Data
isn't the name of a type. The only thing you could do is var innerData struct{ ... }
, which I'm sure you don't want to because then you would have repetition and need to make changes in two places. Otherwise, you have to give it a name. That name doesn't have to be Data
, it can be PostData
or something to make it unique.
