func Any ¶

func Any(value any) any

Any copies maps and slices that can be represented by values decoded from YAML or JSON. Other values are returned unchanged.

func Deep ¶ added in v0.117.0

func Deep[T any](dst, src *T)

Deep creates an independent copy of src into dst using reflection. It recursively copies structs, arrays, pointers, slices, maps and interface values, so that no reference-type field of dst shares storage with src. It is a no-op if either dst or src is nil.

Unexported struct fields cannot be traversed by reflection, so they are copied bitwise, exactly as a plain `*dst = *src` assignment would. Types whose unexported fields hold references (for example a struct wrapping a private slice) therefore still share that storage with src.

Cyclic references are not supported and cause unbounded recursion.

func New ¶ added in v0.117.0

func New[T any](src *T) *T

New returns a deep copy of src in a newly allocated value, or nil if src is nil. It is a convenience wrapper around Deep for callers that don't already have a destination to copy into.

func Pointer ¶

func Pointer[T any](value *T) *T

Pointer returns an independent copy of value.

func StringAnyMap ¶

func StringAnyMap(source map[string]any) map[string]any

StringAnyMap returns an independent copy of source, including nested maps and slices stored as values.
