Asset.Resource.Data is empty after json.Unmarshal

[gleichda]

When reading a asset from a file or inline after json.Unmarshal the Asset.Resource.Data is empty even if the JSON is not:

package main

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"io/ioutil"
	"log"

	"google.golang.org/genproto/googleapis/cloud/asset/v1"
)

func main() {
	file, err := ioutil.ReadFile("asset.json")
	if err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}

	var myAsset asset.Asset
	err = json.Unmarshal(file, &myAsset)
	if err != nil {
		log.Panic(err)
	}
	log.Printf("%v", myAsset.Resource)
}

With asset.json is

{
  "name": "//cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/projects/123456789012",
  "asset_type": "cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/Project",
  "resource": {
    "version": "v1",
    "discovery_document_uri": "https://cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version=v1",
    "discovery_name": "Project",
    "parent": "//cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/folders/234567890121",
    "data": {
      "createTime": "2018-08-08T08:04:36.279Z",
      "labels": {
        "env": "dev",
        "product": "my"
      },
      "lifecycleState": "ACTIVE",
      "name": "my-project",
      "parent": {
        "id": "234567890121",
        "type": "folder"
      },
      "projectId": "my-project-id",
      "projectNumber": "123456789012"
    }
  },
  "ancestors": [
    "projects/123456789012",
    "folders/234567890121",
    "organizations/345678901212"
  ]
}

Acutal behaviour

$ go run main.go
2020/05/13 11:08:59 version:"v1" discovery_document_uri:"https://cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version=v1" discovery_name:"Project" parent:"//cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/folders/234567890121" data:<> 

Expected behaviour

data should contain the information about from the json data block.

Sorry for all of the noise with transferring, could not decide where I wanted this issue. I think the resource you should actually be using in this case is: https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/api/cloudasset/v1?tab=doc#Asset. Which is a different project. That is our REST/JSON based apis.

If you switch your import to asset "google.golang.org/api/cloudasset/v1" your could will just work.

Yes works for me. 🎉 Thanks a lot
