Convert is a library for Go that provides easy and safe casting and conversion between different types. It's designed to be flexible, efficient, and easy to use in your Go projects.

Features

• Convert between primitive types (string, int, float, bool, etc.)
• Convert to and from time.Time and time.Duration
• Convert to and from slices and maps
• Support for custom type conversions
• Comprehensive error handling
• Zero dependencies (except for testing)

Installation

go get github.com/go-mods/convert

Usage

import "github.com/go-mods/convert"

// String conversions
str := convert.ToString(42)
num, err := convert.ToIntE("42")

// Time conversions
duration := convert.ToDuration("1h30m")
timeValue := convert.ToTime("2023-01-01T12:00:00Z")

// Slice conversions
intSlice := convert.ToIntSlice([]interface{}{1, "2", 3.0})

// Map conversions
stringMap := convert.ToStringMapString(map[interface{}]interface{}{"key": "value"})

// Custom conversions
customConverter := func(value interface{}) string {
    if v, ok := value.(CustomType); ok {
        s := v.CustomToString()
        return &s
    }
    return nil
}
result := convert.ToString(myCustomValue, customConverter)
