Golang use reflect interface{} to struct{}

If you just want to know how to convert interface{} to struct{}, the code just as below:

interface.(*Struct)

you can use reflect.ValueOf to get the value of interface, then use Interface() to get the interface of the value. In this case, assume you don't know what the type of your interface{}:

type Human interface {
	Name() string
	Type() string
}

type Martian struct {
	name string
	id   int
}

func (m *Martian) Name() string {
	return m.name
}

func (m *Martian) Type() string {
	return "martian"
}

func TestHuman(t *testing.T) {
	var human Human

	human = &Martian{
		name: "Jack",
		id:   1,
	}

	t.Log(human.Name())

	// convert interface{} to struct{}
	obj := reflect.ValueOf(human)
	martian := obj.Interface().(*Martian)
	t.Log(martian.id)
}
