Composition

[ahmed-adly-khalil]

the following structure would be serialized to JSON as a flat object if we use the standard library,

type Animal struct {
    Sound string
}

type Dog struct {
    Animal
    Breed string
}

however in tygo we have to add json:"animal" to the Dog type in order to serialize it and this would result in a field representation, is there a way to tell tygo to merge the composed struct fields with the main struct?

[moeshin]

type Animal struct {
	Sound string
}

type Dog struct {
	Animal `tstype:",extends"`
	Breed  string
}

export interface Animal {
  Sound: string;
}
export interface Dog extends Animal {
  Breed: string;
}
