WeChat message reply requires such a format, CDATA is to resolve the special characters.
<xml>
<ToUserName><![CDATA[toUser]]></ToUserName>
<FromUserName><![CDATA[fromUser]]></FromUserName>
<CreateTime>12345678</CreateTime>
<MsgType><![CDATA[text]]></MsgType>
<Content><![CDATA[hello world]]></Content>
</xml>
When using golang
to achieve the specification,I found that the xml.Marshal () can be used with the struct tag xml:",cdata"
.
Define a struct to deal with, the codes seems like:
package main
import (
"encoding/xml"
"fmt"
"time"
)
type TextMsg struct {
XMLName xml.Name `xml:"xml"`
ToUserName CDATA
FromUserName CDATA
CreateTime int64
MsgType CDATA
Content CDATA
}
type CDATA struct {
Text string `xml:",cdata"`
}
func main() {
msg := TextMsg{
ToUserName: CDATA{"userId"},
FromUserName: CDATA{"appId"},
CreateTime: time.Now().Unix(),
MsgType: CDATA{"text"},
Content: CDATA{"some message like <hello>"}}
b, _ := xml.MarshalIndent(msg, "", " ")
fmt.Println(string(b))
}
Output results:
<xml>
<ToUserName><![CDATA[userId]]></ToUserName>
<FromUserName><![CDATA[appId]]></FromUserName>
<CreateTime>1485837083</CreateTime>
<MsgType><![CDATA[text]]></MsgType>
<Content><![CDATA[some message like <hello>]]></Content>
</xml>
But I think it's not perfect, since variable assignment is not as convenient as the normal string type, so I change the CDATA into string type, and try to achieve MarshalXML ():
package main
import (
"encoding/xml"
"fmt"
"time"
)
type TextMsg struct {
XMLName xml.Name `xml:"xml"`
ToUserName CDATA
FromUserName CDATA
CreateTime int64
MsgType CDATA
Content CDATA
}
type CDATA string
func (c CDATA) MarshalXML(e *xml.Encoder, start xml.StartElement) error {
e.EncodeElement("<![CDATA["+string(c)+"]]>", start)
return nil
}
func main() {
msg := TextMsg{
ToUserName: "userId",
FromUserName: "appId",
CreateTime: time.Now().Unix(),
MsgType: "text",
Content: "some message like <hello>"}
b, _ := xml.MarshalIndent(msg, "", " ")
fmt.Println(string(b))
}
But the output results do not meet expectations, "<" or ">" is escaped:
<xml>
<ToUserName><![CDATA[userId]]></ToUserName>
<FromUserName><![CDATA[appId]]></FromUserName>
<CreateTime>1485837470</CreateTime>
<MsgType><![CDATA[text]]></MsgType>
<Content><![CDATA[some message like <hello>]]></Content>
</xml>
Do you have any good suggestions for me, thank you.
You can create another structure CDATA2
which has tag xml:",cdata"
, and pass it to EncodeElement()
.
EncodeElement()
would correctly encode CDATA2{"foo<>"}
to <![CDATA[foo<>]]>
.
type CDATA2 struct {
Text string `xml:",cdata"`
}
func (c CDATA) MarshalXML(e *xml.Encoder, start xml.StartElement) error {
e.EncodeElement(CDATA2{string(c)}, start)
return nil
}

Edit: you can use anonymous struct if you don't want to define named type
func (c CDATA) MarshalXML(e *xml.Encoder, start xml.StartElement) error {
e.EncodeElement(struct {
string `xml:",cdata"`
}{string(c)}, start)
return nil
}
