Hi I have an application that I wrote that uses JSON for the config file. The application is a chatbot I use internally and allows users to run linux commands to get information both locally and via ssh. The chatbot interface uses basic html to render the output so 90% of the time I want to have the output be surrounded by "<pre>" and "</pre>". But not every one running the application may want this, their chatbot may run a commands that that uses other HTML formatting. So I created a directive in the config file allowing the user to configure this:
"HTMLFormat": { "Start": "<pre>", "Finish": "</pre>" } The problem is that this config file also contains a password -- so I allow the user to put in clear text the password, and on restart the password gets encrypted, and then I do a simple json.Marshal and rewrite the config with the encrypted password: file, err := json.MarshalIndent(config, "", " ") errorHandle(err, "Json Marshal", false) err = ioutil.WriteFile(cFile, file, 0644) errorHandle(err, "Write Config", false) In the above, 'config' is the struct that contains all the directive, 'cFile' is the config file being written. When the file gets written it looks like this: has toIn the json there is a directive for the application to add html formatting to the start of its output. "HTMLFormat": { "Start": "\u003cpre\u003e", "Finish": "\u003e\/pre\u003e" } Any idea why it's doing this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
