## Scalar parsing library
|
|
|
|
Scalar is a library for parsing strings into arbitrary scalars (integers,
|
|
floats, strings, booleans, etc). It is helpful for tasks such as parsing
|
|
strings passed as environment variables or command line arguments.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
go get github.com/alexflint/go-scalar
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The main API works as follows:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
var value int
|
|
err := scalar.Parse(&value, "123")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is also a variant that takes a `reflect.Value`:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
var value int
|
|
err := scalar.ParseValue(reflect.ValueOf(&value), "123")
|
|
```
