Cannot retrieve “_id” value using mgo with golang

Question

This is my struct definition:

type Article struct {
    Id      bson.ObjectId `json:\"id\"        bson:\"_id,omitempty\"`
    Title   string        `json:\"t         


        

Answer 1

I've found the problem.

In the code:

Id      bson.ObjectId `json:"id"        bson:"_id,omitempty"`

between json: and bson:, I used a tab instead of space so the problem occurs. If I change this line of code to:

Id      bson.ObjectId `json:"id" bson:"_id,omitempty"`

With one space between json: and bson:, it turns out to work just fine.
