How to start a go structure with a nested structure whose name has the package name

Question content

I have a go structure defined as follows:

type record struct {
    events.apigatewayproxyrequest          `json:",omitempty"`
    events.apigatewaywebsocketproxyrequest `json:",omitempty"` //nolint:all
    events.sqsevent                        `json:",omitempty"`
}

I want to know how to start this structure. I have tried before:

Record{events.APIGatewayProxyRequest: {}}

But it gives me an error: invalid field name events.apigatewayproxyrequest in struct literal . It seems that names containing package names cannot be used as key names in structures. What's the correct way to start it?

Correct answer

When embedding a type into a structure, the field names of the enclosing structure are the same as the type names of the embedded type (without the package selector). so:

event:=Record{
  APIGatewayProxyRequest: events.APIGatewayProxyRequest{ ... },
}

The right side of the initialization is the literal for the type, so you use the full type name (with the selector).
