Command gencodec generates marshaling methods for struct types.

When gencodec is invoked on a directory and type name, it creates a Go source file
containing JSON, YAML and TOML marshaling methods for the type. The generated methods add
features which the standard json package cannot offer.

	gencodec -type MyType -formats json,yaml,toml -out mytype_json.go

# Struct Tags

The gencodec:"required" tag can be used to generate a presence check for the field.
The generated unmarshaling method returns an error if a required field is missing.

Other struct tags are carried over as is. The "json", "yaml", "toml" tags can be used to
rename a field when marshaling.

Example:

	type foo struct {
		Required string `gencodec:"required"`
		Optional string
		Renamed  string `json:"otherName"`
	}

# Field Type Overrides

An invocation of gencodec can specify an additional 'field override' struct from which
marshaling type replacements are taken. If the override struct contains a field whose name
matches the original type, the generated marshaling methods will use the overridden type
and convert to and from the original field type. If the override struct contains a field F
of type T, which does not exist in the original type, and the original type has a method
named F with no arguments and return type assignable to T, the method is called by Marshal*.
If there is a matching method F but the return type or arguments are unsuitable, an error
is raised.

In this example, the specialString type implements json.Unmarshaler to enforce additional
parsing rules. When json.Unmarshal is used with type foo, the specialString unmarshaler
will be used to parse the value of SpecialField. The result of foo.Func() is added to the
result on marshaling under the key `id`. If the input on unmarshal contains a key `id` this
field is ignored.

	//go:generate gencodec -type foo -field-override fooMarshaling -out foo_json.go

	type foo struct {
		Field        string
		SpecialField string
	}

	func (f foo) Func() string {
		return f.Field + "-" + f.SpecialField
	}

	type fooMarshaling struct {
		SpecialField specialString // overrides type of SpecialField when marshaling/unmarshaling
		Func string `json:"id"`    // adds the result of foo.Func() to the serialised object under the key id
	}

# Relaxed Field Conversions

Field types in the override struct must be trivially convertible to the original field
type. gencodec's definition of 'convertible' is less restrictive than the usual rules
defined in the Go language specification.

The following conversions are supported:

If the fields are directly assignable, no conversion is emitted. If the fields are
convertible according to Go language rules, a simple conversion is emitted. Example input
code:

	type specialString string

	func (s *specialString) UnmarshalJSON(input []byte) error { ... }

	type Foo struct{ S string }

	type fooMarshaling struct{ S specialString }

The generated code will contain:

	func (f *Foo) UnmarshalJSON(input []byte) error {
		var dec struct{ S *specialString }
		...
		f.S = string(dec.specialString)
		...
	}

If the fields are of map or slice type and the element (and key) types are convertible, a
simple loop is emitted. Example input code:

	type Foo2 struct{ M map[string]string }

	type foo2Marshaling struct{ S map[string]specialString }

The generated code is similar to this snippet:

	func (f *Foo2) UnmarshalJSON(input []byte) error {
		var dec struct{ M map[string]specialString }
		...
		for k, v := range dec.M {
			f.M[k] = string(v)
		}
		...
	}

Conversions between slices and arrays are supported. Example input code:

	type Foo3 struct{ A [2]string }

	type foo3Marshaling struct{ A []string }

The generated code is similar to this snippet:

	func (f *Foo3) UnmarshalJSON(input []byte) error {
		var dec struct{ A []string }
		...
		for i, v := range dec.A {
			f.A[i] = string(v)
		}
		...
	}
