Useful for configuration default values, avoiding messy if-statements. + +Mergo merges same-type structs and maps by setting default values in zero-value fields. Mergo won't merge unexported (private) fields. It will do recursively any exported one. It also won't merge structs inside maps (because they are not addressable using Go reflection). + +Also a lovely [comune](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mergo) (municipality) in the Province of Ancona in the Italian region of Marche. + +## Status + +It is ready for production use. [It is used in several projects by Docker, Google, The Linux Foundation, VMWare, Shopify, etc](https://github.com/imdario/mergo#mergo-in-the-wild). + +### Important note + +Please keep in mind that a problematic PR broke [0.3.9](//github.com/imdario/mergo/releases/tag/0.3.9). I reverted it in [0.3.10](//github.com/imdario/mergo/releases/tag/0.3.10), and I consider it stable but not bug-free. Also, this version adds suppot for go modules. + +Keep in mind that in [0.3.2](//github.com/imdario/mergo/releases/tag/0.3.2), Mergo changed `Merge()`and `Map()` signatures to support [transformers](#transformers). I added an optional/variadic argument so that it won't break the existing code. + +If you were using Mergo before April 6th, 2015, please check your project works as intended after updating your local copy with ```go get -u github.com/imdario/mergo```. I apologize for any issue caused by its previous behavior and any future bug that Mergo could cause in existing projects after the change (release 0.2.0). + +### Donations + +If Mergo is useful to you, consider buying me a coffee, a beer, or making a monthly donation to allow me to keep building great free software. :heart_eyes: + +<a href='https://ko-fi.com/B0B58839' target='_blank'><img height='36' style='border:0px;height:36px;' src='https://az743702.vo.msecnd.net/cdn/kofi1.png?v=0' border='0' alt='Buy Me a Coffee at ko-fi.com' /></a> +[](https://beerpay.io/imdario/mergo) +[](https://beerpay.io/imdario/mergo) +<a href="https://liberapay.com/dario/donate"><img alt="Donate using Liberapay" src="https://liberapay.com/assets/widgets/donate.svg"></a> + +### Mergo in the wild + +- [moby/moby](https://github.com/moby/moby) +- [kubernetes/kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes) +- [vmware/dispatch](https://github.com/vmware/dispatch) +- [Shopify/themekit](https://github.com/Shopify/themekit) +- [imdario/zas](https://github.com/imdario/zas) +- [matcornic/hermes](https://github.com/matcornic/hermes) +- [OpenBazaar/openbazaar-go](https://github.com/OpenBazaar/openbazaar-go) +- [kataras/iris](https://github.com/kataras/iris) +- [michaelsauter/crane](https://github.com/michaelsauter/crane) +- [go-task/task](https://github.com/go-task/task) +- [sensu/uchiwa](https://github.com/sensu/uchiwa) +- [ory/hydra](https://github.com/ory/hydra) +- [sisatech/vcli](https://github.com/sisatech/vcli) +- [dairycart/dairycart](https://github.com/dairycart/dairycart) +- [projectcalico/felix](https://github.com/projectcalico/felix) +- [resin-os/balena](https://github.com/resin-os/balena) +- [go-kivik/kivik](https://github.com/go-kivik/kivik) +- [Telefonica/govice](https://github.com/Telefonica/govice) +- [supergiant/supergiant](supergiant/supergiant) +- [SergeyTsalkov/brooce](https://github.com/SergeyTsalkov/brooce) +- [soniah/dnsmadeeasy](https://github.com/soniah/dnsmadeeasy) +- [ohsu-comp-bio/funnel](https://github.com/ohsu-comp-bio/funnel) +- [EagerIO/Stout](https://github.com/EagerIO/Stout) +- [lynndylanhurley/defsynth-api](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/defsynth-api) +- [russross/canvasassignments](https://github.com/russross/canvasassignments) +- [rdegges/cryptly-api](https://github.com/rdegges/cryptly-api) +- [casualjim/exeggutor](https://github.com/casualjim/exeggutor) +- [divshot/gitling](https://github.com/divshot/gitling) +- [RWJMurphy/gorl](https://github.com/RWJMurphy/gorl) +- [andrerocker/deploy42](https://github.com/andrerocker/deploy42) +- [elwinar/rambler](https://github.com/elwinar/rambler) +- [tmaiaroto/gopartman](https://github.com/tmaiaroto/gopartman) +- [jfbus/impressionist](https://github.com/jfbus/impressionist) +- [Jmeyering/zealot](https://github.com/Jmeyering/zealot) +- [godep-migrator/rigger-host](https://github.com/godep-migrator/rigger-host) +- [Dronevery/MultiwaySwitch-Go](https://github.com/Dronevery/MultiwaySwitch-Go) +- [thoas/picfit](https://github.com/thoas/picfit) +- [mantasmatelis/whooplist-server](https://github.com/mantasmatelis/whooplist-server) +- [jnuthong/item_search](https://github.com/jnuthong/item_search) +- [bukalapak/snowboard](https://github.com/bukalapak/snowboard) +- [containerssh/containerssh](https://github.com/containerssh/containerssh) + +## Install + + go get github.com/imdario/mergo + + // use in your .go code + import ( + "github.com/imdario/mergo" + ) + +## Usage + +You can only merge same-type structs with exported fields initialized as zero value of their type and same-types maps. Mergo won't merge unexported (private) fields but will do recursively any exported one. It won't merge empty structs value as [they are zero values](https://golang.org/ref/spec#The_zero_value) too. Also, maps will be merged recursively except for structs inside maps (because they are not addressable using Go reflection). + +```go +if err := mergo.Merge(&dst, src); err != nil { + // ... +} +``` + +Also, you can merge overwriting values using the transformer `WithOverride`. + +```go +if err := mergo.Merge(&dst, src, mergo.WithOverride); err != nil { + // ... +} +``` + +Additionally, you can map a `map[string]interface{}` to a struct (and otherwise, from struct to map), following the same restrictions as in `Merge()`. Keys are capitalized to find each corresponding exported field. + +```go +if err := mergo.Map(&dst, srcMap); err != nil { + // ... +} +``` + +Warning: if you map a struct to map, it won't do it recursively. Don't expect Mergo to map struct members of your struct as `map[string]interface{}`. They will be just assigned as values. + +Here is a nice example: + +```go +package main + +import ( + "fmt" + "github.com/imdario/mergo" +) + +type Foo struct { + A string + B int64 +} + +func main() { + src := Foo{ + A: "one", + B: 2, + } + dest := Foo{ + A: "two", + } + mergo.Merge(&dest, src) + fmt.Println(dest) + // Will print + // {two 2} +} +``` + +Note: if test are failing due missing package, please execute: + + go get gopkg.in/yaml.v2 + +### Transformers + +Transformers allow to merge specific types differently than in the default behavior. In other words, now you can customize how some types are merged. For example, `time.Time` is a struct; it doesn't have zero value but IsZero can return true because it has fields with zero value. How can we merge a non-zero `time.Time`? + +```go +package main + +import ( + "fmt" + "github.com/imdario/mergo" + "reflect" + "time" +) + +type timeTransformer struct { +} + +func (t timeTransformer) Transformer(typ reflect.Type) func(dst, src reflect.Value) error { + if typ == reflect.TypeOf(time.Time{}) { + return func(dst, src reflect.Value) error { + if dst.CanSet() { + isZero := dst.MethodByName("IsZero") + result := isZero.Call([]reflect.Value{}) + if result[0].Bool() { + dst.Set(src) + } + } + return nil + } + } + return nil +} + +type Snapshot struct { + Time time.Time + // ... +} + +func main() { + src := Snapshot{time.Now()} + dest := Snapshot{} + mergo.Merge(&dest, src, mergo.WithTransformers(timeTransformer{})) + fmt.Println(dest) + // Will print + // { 2018-01-12 01:15:00 +0000 UTC m=+0.000000001 } +} +``` + + +## Contact me + +If I can help you, you have an idea or you are using Mergo in your projects, don't hesitate to drop me a line (or a pull request): [@im_dario](https://twitter.com/im_dario) + +## About + +Written by [Dario Castañé](http://dario.im). + +## Top Contributors + +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/0) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/1) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/2) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/3) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/4) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/5) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/6) +[](https://sourcerer.io/fame/imdario/imdario/mergo/links/7) + + +## License + +[BSD 3-Clause](http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause) license, as [Go language](http://golang.org/LICENSE). + + +[](https://app.fossa.io/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2Fimdario%2Fmergo?ref=badge_large) |
