Hi guys,

I would like to have fields in a custom type that :
- are not exported when I mashall them (to send to front)
- are imported when I decode them (from the from)

This is the type :
type Player struct {
 Id           bson.ObjectId `json:"id,omitempty" bson:"_id,omitempty"`
 CustomField string        `json:"-" bson:"customField,omitempty"`
}
- 
- The   `json:"-"` works like a charm, the field is not mashalled when I 
send the object to the front end but I would like it to be imported when I 
send an object from to front to the back.
- 
- This is the json I send in the request payload :
- {id: "123456789", customField: "123456"}
- 
if err := decoder.Decode(&newPlayer); err != nil {
    http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
    return
}

-

- 
- What I get is (due to the  `json:"-"`):
- Player {
 Id:132456789
}
- 
Do you know a way to keep the field not sent to the front, but when the 
front sends one to the back, all fields are decoded ?
- I could create another type for the decoder, but that would be a code dup 
and some of my types are quite large...
- 
- Thanks !
