go - How to initialize nested struct in golang? -

type important struct { client     string                 `json:"client"` response   summary        `json:"response"` 

}

type summary struct { name     string           `json:"name"` metadata clientdata      `json:"metadata"` }  type clientdata struct { income string           `json:"income"`  }   v := &important{ client: "xyz", response:  summary[{             name: "test",             metadata: clientdata { "404040"},         }     }] 

//error: cannot use summary{ name: "test", metadata: clientdata { "404040"}, } (type summary) type []summary more...

what doing wrong here?

to put simply, goofed syntax of slice literal slightly. mistake logical, sadly doesn't work.

the following fixed version:

v := &important{ client: "xyz", response: []summary{         {             name: "test",             metadata: clientdata { "404040"},         },     }, } 

a slice literal defined so:

[]type{ items... }
