go-tagexpr is a Go library that implements an expression syntax evaluated via struct tags, enabling declarative field validation and value evaluation. It includes a powerful struct-tag-based validator and an HTTP request parameter binder built on the same expression engine.
Use cases
- validate struct fields with expressive rules in go struct tags
- bind and validate http request parameters in go
- evaluate expressions against nested struct fields
- write custom validation rules referencing other fields in a struct
- replace go-playground validator with a tag expression dsl
When to choose
- you need cross-field or conditional validation logic expressed directly in struct tags
- you want a single library for both validation and http parameter binding in go
- you need to evaluate custom expressions over struct data at runtime
When to avoid
- you only need simple required/type checks that standard validators cover
- your project is not written in go
- you prefer validation rules defined in code rather than struct tags
