Lowercase Struct Param Fields?

[xeoncross]

Currently Body/Form/Query fields must be capital to be public struct members.

"reflect: reflect.Value.SetString using value obtained using unexported field" -
gongular/parser.go:142

type InputHandler struct {
	Param struct {
		Name string
	}
	Query struct {
		Ref int
	}
	Form struct {
		Title   string `valid:"required"`
		Email   string
		Message string `valid:"required"`
	}
}

However, it would be nice if lowercase values could be used to conform to modern lowercase request param usage. I've looked through the source code and documentation and I don't see any mention of (my first guess) struct field tags Title string 'name:title' as an option.

How should I be handling this?

[mustafaakin]

Sure, it should be trivial. But instead of tags, should we match with case ignore?

[xeoncross]

Well, that ignore case would be easiest.

I can say in over 10 years of multiple languages, API's, and platforms I've never, ever had a request where two params were named the same thing (in different cases) and contained different values.

HTTP POST /?bar=yes
BAR=no

Though that doesn't mean someone hasn't.
