# encoding

Package provides a generic interface to encoders and decoders

## Example

```go
package main

import (
"flag"
"fmt"
"log"
"strings"

"github.com/mickep76/encoding"
_ "github.com/mickep76/encoding/json"
_ "github.com/mickep76/encoding/toml"
_ "github.com/mickep76/encoding/yaml"
)

type Message struct {
Name, Text string
}

type Messages struct {
Messages []*Message
}

func main() {
codec := flag.String("codec", "json", fmt.Sprintf("Codecs: [%s].", strings.Join(encoding.Codecs(), ", ")))
indent := flag.String("indent", "", "Indent encoding (only supported by JSON codec)")
flag.Parse()

in := Messages{
Messages: []*Message{
&Message{Name: "Ed", Text: "Knock knock."},
&Message{Name: "Sam", Text: "Who's there?"},
&Message{Name: "Ed", Text: "Go fmt."},
&Message{Name: "Sam", Text: "Go fmt who?"},
&Message{Name: "Ed", Text: "Go fmt yourself!"},
},
}

var opts []encoding.Option
if *indent != "" {
opts = append(opts, encoding.WithIndent(*indent))
}
c, err := encoding.NewCodec(*codec, opts...)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}

b, err := c.Encode(in)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}

fmt.Printf("Codec: %s\n", *codec)
fmt.Printf("Encoded:\n%s\n", string(b))

out := Messages{}
if err := c.Decode(b, &out); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}

fmt.Println("Decoded:")
for _, m := range out.Messages {
fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", m.Name, m.Text)
}
}
