Method AsInterface

pkg/attributes/attributes.go:310–325

AsInterface allows returning the whole attributes map... as an interface. When the attributes are not empty, the returned interface will be a map of interfaces. An optional error holder can be passed as an argument to receive any error that might have occured during the attributes decoding

(errorHolder *error)

// to receive any error that might have occured during the attributes
// decoding
func (attributes Attributes) AsInterface(errorHolder *error) interface{} {
	rawJSON, err := json.Marshal(attributes)
	if err != nil && errorHolder != nil {
		*errorHolder = err
		return nil
	}

	container := &[]interface{}{}
	err = json.Unmarshal([]byte("[ "+string(rawJSON)+" ]"), container)
	if err != nil && errorHolder != nil {
		*errorHolder = err
		return nil
	}

	return (*container)[0]
}

// PutString allows adding a string attribute to the
// current map of attributes
