Types

type Attributes

type Attributes struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Attributes is an immutable struct for storing and retrieving generic key/value pairs. Keys must be hashable, and users should define their own types for keys. Values should not be modified after they are added to an Attributes or if they were received from one. If values implement 'Equal(o interface{}) bool', it will be called by (*Attributes).Equal to determine whether two values with the same key should be considered equal.

Example

Code:play 

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"google.golang.org/grpc/attributes"
)

type stringVal struct {
	s string
}

func (s stringVal) Equal(o interface{}) bool {
	os, ok := o.(stringVal)
	return ok && s.s == os.s
}

func main() {
	type keyOne struct{}
	type keyTwo struct{}
	a := attributes.New(keyOne{}, 1).WithValue(keyTwo{}, stringVal{s: "two"})
	fmt.Println("Key one:", a.Value(keyOne{}))
	fmt.Println("Key two:", a.Value(keyTwo{}))
}

Output:

Key one: 1
Key two: {two}

func New

func New(key, value interface{}) *Attributes

New returns a new Attributes containing the key/value pair.

func (*Attributes) Equal

func (a *Attributes) Equal(o *Attributes) bool

Equal returns whether a and o are equivalent. If 'Equal(o interface{}) bool' is implemented for a value in the attributes, it is called to determine if the value matches the one stored in the other attributes. If Equal is not implemented, standard equality is used to determine if the two values are equal. Note that some types (e.g. maps) aren't comparable by default, so they must be wrapped in a struct, or in an alias type, with Equal defined.

func (*Attributes) MarshalJSON

func (a *Attributes) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON helps implement the json.Marshaler interface, thereby rendering the Attributes correctly when printing (via pretty.JSON) structs containing Attributes as fields.

Is it impossible to unmarshal attributes from a JSON representation and this method is meant only for debugging purposes.

func (*Attributes) String

func (a *Attributes) String() string

String prints the attribute map. If any key or values throughout the map implement fmt.Stringer, it calls that method and appends.

func (*Attributes) Value

func (a *Attributes) Value(key interface{}) interface{}

Value returns the value associated with these attributes for key, or nil if no value is associated with key. The returned value should not be modified.

func (*Attributes) WithValue

func (a *Attributes) WithValue(key, value interface{}) *Attributes

WithValue returns a new Attributes containing the previous keys and values and the new key/value pair. If the same key appears multiple times, the last value overwrites all previous values for that key. To remove an existing key, use a nil value. value should not be modified later.

Example

Code:play 

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"google.golang.org/grpc/attributes"
)

type stringVal struct {
	s string
}

func (s stringVal) Equal(o interface{}) bool {
	os, ok := o.(stringVal)
	return ok && s.s == os.s
}

func main() {
	type keyOne struct{}
	type keyTwo struct{}
	a := attributes.New(keyOne{}, 1)
	a = a.WithValue(keyTwo{}, stringVal{s: "two"})
	fmt.Println("Key one:", a.Value(keyOne{}))
	fmt.Println("Key two:", a.Value(keyTwo{}))
}

Output:

Key one: 1
Key two: {two}
