Function resolveAlias

alias.go:49–69

resolveAlias attempts to resolve a named type to its underlying basic type (if possible). Pointers are expected to be indirected by this point.

(i any)

//
// Pointers are expected to be indirected by this point.
func resolveAlias(i any) (any, bool) {
	if i == nil {
		return nil, false
	}

	t := reflect.TypeOf(i)

	// Not a named type
	if t.Name() == "" || slices.Contains(kindNames, t.Name()) {
		return i, false
	}

	resolve, ok := kinds[t.Kind()]
	if !ok { // Not a supported kind
		return i, false
	}

	v := reflect.ValueOf(i)

	return resolve(v), true
