  • Features

    • string
    • int / float64 / uint
    • slice / array
    • map
    • JSON
    • nested struct
    • field name / map key
    • custom mask function

Features

• You can mask any field of a structure using the struct's tags. (example → How to use)
• It is also possible to mask using field names or map keys without using tags. (example → field name / map key)
• Users can make use of their own custom-created masking functions. (example → custom mask function)
• The masked object is a copied object, so it does not overwrite the original data before masking(although it's not perfect...)
  • Private fields are not copied
  • It is moderately fast in performing deep copies.

Installation

go get github.com/showa-93/go-mask

Mask Tags

go-mask does not provide many tags by default.
This is because it is believed that users should create their own necessary masking functions.

tag	type	description
mask:"filled"	string	Masks the string with the same number of masking characters.
mask:"filledXXX"	string	XXX = number of masking characters. Masks with a fixed number of characters. mask:"filled3"→***
mask:"fixed"	string	Masks with a fixed number of characters. *******
mask:"hash"	string	Masks the string by converting it to a value using sha1.
mask:"randomXXX"	int / float64	XXX = numeric value. Masks with a random value in the range of 0 to the XXX.
mask:"zero"	any	It can be applied to any type, masking it with the zero value of that type.

How to use

string

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	mask "github.com/showa-93/go-mask"
)

func main() {
	{
		maskValue, _ := mask.String(mask.MaskTypeFixed, "Hello World!!")
		fmt.Println(maskValue)
	}
	{
		value := struct {
			Title string   `mask:"filled"`
			Casts []string `mask:"fixed"`
		}{
			Title: "Catch Me If You Can",
			Casts: []string{
				"Thomas Jeffrey \"Tom\" Hanks",
				"Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio",
			},
		}
		masker := mask.NewMasker()
		masker.SetMaskChar("-")
		masker.RegisterMaskStringFunc(mask.MaskTypeFilled, masker.MaskFilledString)
		masker.RegisterMaskStringFunc(mask.MaskTypeFixed, masker.MaskFixedString)

		maskValue, _ := mask.Mask(value)
		maskValue2, _ := masker.Mask(value)

		fmt.Printf("%+v\n", value)
		fmt.Printf("%+v\n", maskValue)
		fmt.Printf("%+v\n", maskValue2)
	}
}

********
{Title:Catch Me If You Can Casts:[Thomas Jeffrey "Tom" Hanks Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio]}
{Title:******************* Casts:[******** ********]}
{Title:------------------- Casts:[-------- --------]}

int / float64 / uint

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	mask "github.com/showa-93/go-mask"
)

func main() {
	{
		maskValue, _ := mask.Int("random100", 10)
		fmt.Println(maskValue)
	}
	{
		maskValue, _ := mask.Float64("random100.2", 12.3)
		fmt.Println(maskValue)
	}

	{
		value := struct {
			Price   int     `mask:"random1000"`
			Percent float64 `mask:"random1.3"`
		}{
			Price:   300,
			Percent: 0.80,
		}
		masker := mask.NewMasker()
		masker.RegisterMaskIntFunc(mask.MaskTypeRandom, masker.MaskRandomInt)
		masker.RegisterMaskFloat64Func(mask.MaskTypeRandom, masker.MaskRandomFloat64)

		maskValue, _ := mask.Mask(value)
		maskValue2, _ := masker.Mask(value)

		fmt.Printf("%+v\n", maskValue)
		fmt.Printf("%+v\n", maskValue2)
	}
}
