Thanks @dom96
Nim offers similar functionality via the `to` macro, but indeed it doesn't
support fields that begin with a number. I created an issue for this:
[https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/7139](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/7139).
Depending on your JSON you may be able to use a combination
Thanks yglukhov for the reply. It just an observation as I have just started
with nim-lang. So may be I was looking at things which I could do really fast
in go to be in nim. I will take some time to get used to nim
@frogEye. That is true because nim ideology differs a lot from go. Instead of

with rich metaprogramming capabilities, and with those you can implement high
level features that look and feel like native nim constructs. E.
Thanks, dom96 . But still, the ease with which we can unmarshal and marshal
json into a data structure in Go-lang is uncomparable.
You should do this:

Latest Nim dev has custom pragmas that can be useful in this case.

I have looking for a way to encode the json keys, but has not been able to find
anything on that.
For example Go lets us do this
type Response2 struct {
Page int json:"page" Fruits []string json:"fruits"
}
I want to unmarshal a json object but not able to encode the json keys. As my
