I know we have plenty of pretty printing out there, but i'm looking for a
package that can print the Go representation of a Struct out to screen.
So given:
var x := &myStruct{
A: "hello"
}
someLib.Print(x)
I get:
&myStruct{
A: "hello"
}
I'm sure someone has used reflection to do this and
Does fmt.Printf("%#v", v) do what you want?

Hey axel,
Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately not. Because that is going to
simply print pointer values out. I want it to unwind all of that (and
handle the difficulty of recursive references). I want to be able to take
what is printed and simply paste it into a file assigned to a variabl
Hey axel,
I recognize the problem space you are discussing. There are a couple
strategies I could implement to try and solve the problems. And I'm not
100% sure you can solve all of them. But I certainly don't want to jump
down the rabbit hole of reflection myself if I don't have to. So I'm
Perhaps https://github.com/kortschak/utter might suit your needs?

Thank you everyone who responded. Gave utter a look and its pretty
decent. I found litter a bit more developed around the circular reference
area. But both were great suggestions and just what I was looking for.
Again, thank you for helping me find these!
