OS X XML Plist library for Go

The plist library is used for decoding and encoding XML Plists, usually from HTTP streams.

Example:

func someHTTPHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	var sparseBundleHeader struct {
		InfoDictionaryVersion *string `plist:"CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion"`
		BandSize              *uint64 `plist:"band-size"`
		BackingStoreVersion   int     `plist:"bundle-backingstore-version"`
		DiskImageBundleType   string  `plist:"diskimage-bundle-type"`
		Size                  uint64  `plist:"unknownKey"`
	}

    // decode an HTTP request body into the sparseBundleHeader struct
	if err := plist.NewXMLDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&sparseBundleHeader); err != nil {
		log.Println(err)
        return
	}
}

This library is based of DHowett's library but has an API that's more similar to the XML and JSON libraries in the standard library. The plist.Decoder() accepts an io.Reader instead of an io.ReadSeeker
