Package sonh/qs encodes structs into url.Values.
go get github.com/sonh/qsimport (
"github.com/sonh/qs"
)Package qs exports NewEncoder() function to create an encoder.
Encoder caches struct info to speed up encoding process, use a single instance is highly recommended.
Use WithTagAlias() func to register custom tag alias (default is qs)
encoder = qs.NewEncoder(
qs.WithTagAlias("myTag"),
)Encoder has Values() and Encode() functions to encode structs into url.Values.

bool,uint,string,float64,...) structslice,arraypointertime.Time- custom type
type Query struct {
Tags []string `qs:"tags"`
Limit int `qs:"limit"`
From time.Time `qs:"from"`
Active bool `qs:"active,omitempty"` //omit empty value
Ignore float64 `qs:"-"` //ignore
}

}
fmt.Println(values.Encode()) //(unescaped) output: "from=2020-02-02T00:00:00Z&limit=24&tags=docker&tags=golang&tags=reactjs"By default, package encodes time.Time values as RFC3339 format.
Including the "second" or "millis" option to signal that the field should be encoded as second or millisecond.
type Query struct {
Default time.Time `qs:"default_fmt"`
Second time.Time `qs:"second_fmt,second"` //use `second` option

}

type Query struct {
Tags []string `qs:"tags"`
}
values, _ := encoder.Values(&Query{Tags: []string{"foo","bar"}})
fmt.Println(values.Encode()) //(unescaped) output: "tags=foo&tags=bar"Including the comma option to signal that the field should be encoded as a single comma-delimited value.
type Query struct {
Tags []string `qs:"tags,comma"`
}
values, _ := encoder.Values(&Query{Tags: []string{"foo","bar"}})
fmt.Println(values.Encode()) //(unescaped) output: "tags=foo,bar"Including the bracket option to signal that the multiple URL values should have "[]" appended to the value name.
type Query struct {
Tags []string `qs:"tags,bracket"`
}
values, _ := encoder.Values(&Query{Tags: []string{"foo","bar"}})
fmt.Println(values.Encode()) //(unescaped) output: "tags[]=foo&tags[]=bar"The index option will append an index number with brackets to value name.
type Query struct {
Tags []string `qs:"tags,index"`
}
values, _ := encoder.Values(&Query{Tags: []string{"foo","bar"}})
fmt.Println(values.Encode()) //(unescaped) output: "tags[0]=foo&tags[1]=bar"All nested structs are encoded including the parent value name with brackets for scoping.
