[Feature request] Means for having different casing in tag name
I encountered this edge case, say you have this struct transform with camelcase:
type Blog struct {
ID string `json:"id"`
WebURL string `json:"webURL"`
}
Now, the API offers you its data like this:
GET example.com/api/blog
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type: application/json
{
"value": [
{
"id": "blog-a",
"webUrl": "https://example.com"
},
{
"id": "blog-b",
"webUrl": "https://example.com"
}
]
}
So, the API returns the web's URL in a field called webUrl, but gomodifytags transforms the part of the field "URL" as URL and not as Url. That's okay.
Currently, this can be solved by, either:
- manually modifying the tag name, with the downside that refreshing the tags will overwrite such manual change.
- changing the name of the field in the struct, with the downside that I prefer
WebURL, notWebUrlin my struct field.
Unfortunately there is not much I can do here. Gomodifytags don't store any state anywhere. You can modify individual lines rather then whole struct and pass a different transform, or just leave it like that once transformed.
