Unmarshaling json into a type

Question

I get the following data:

{
  \"timestamp\": \"1526058949\",
  \"bids\": [
    [
      \"7215.90\",
      \"2.31930000\"
    ],
    [
      \"7215.77\",
      \"         


        

Answer 1

You are treating your bids as a structure of two separate strings, when they are really a slice of strings in the JSON. If you change OrderBookItem to be

type OrderBookItem []string

which is how you have defined them in the second bit, which works.

To access the values you just have to do: price := d.Bids[0] amount := d.Bids[1]
