'Gin, Get form-data nested object sending with postman
So basically I want to use PostFormMap() method to get my data sent from postman's form-data but I get unexpected result and the reason that I'm not using raw json is that I want to upload a file too
Here is my postman
here is the code (nothing fancy)
c.JSON(200, gin.H{
"request": c.PostFormMap("rules"),
})
and I'm expecting to get
{
"request": [
{
"cell": "A",
"rule": "B"
},
{
"cell": "B",
"rule": "D"
}
]
}
but instead I get this
{
"request": {
"0": "B",
"1": "D"
}
}
The question is how can I get the correct result?

Answering my own question
After spending hours of searching and having PHP background in my mind I realized that having such form-data parameter like foo[0][bar] manually implemented in PHP and is not a standard thing so in my case I decided to send the second parameter as a raw json
so it would be
Postman Body => form-data
| Key | Value |
|---|---|
| file | sample.xlsx |
| rules | [{"cell": "A", "rules": "string"}, {"cell": "B", "rules": "numeric"}] |
