Descrizione
grpc-gateway has an odd restriction on query parameters with map types. Specifically, it refuses to unmarshal a map type whether the value type is a string slice, such as map[string][]string.
grpc-gateway makes the assumption that the underlying Go type is authoritative for it's representation in query parameters.
I would expect ?q[foobar]=hello&q[foobar]=world to successfully unmarshal to both a map[string][]string if using GoGo protobuf's custom type mappings as well as the following type raw protobuf type:
message MapStringSlice {
string key = 1;
string value = 2;
}
message RPC {
repeated MapStringSlice q = 1;
}
The wire representation of this type is identical to proto's map<string, string> and is recommended for backwards compatibility by the documentation for implementations that may not support map:
I'm happy to write a patch for this functionality if it's welcomed by the maintainers.
