With the code below how do I add an IP struct to the Server struct's ips array?
import (
"net"
)
type Server struct {
id int
ips []net.IP
}
func main() {
o := 5
ip := net.ParseIP("127.0.0.1")
server := Server{o, ??ip??}
}
Do I even have the ips array correct? Is it better to use a pointer?
A slice literal looks like []net.IP{ip} (or []net.IP{ip1,ip2,ip3...}. Stylistically, struct initializers with names are preferred, so Server{id: o, ips: []net.IP{ip}} is more standard. The whole code sample with those changes:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"net"
)
type Server struct {
id int
ips []net.IP
}
func main() {
o := 5
ip := net.ParseIP("127.0.0.1")
server := Server{id: o, ips: []net.IP{ip}}
fmt.Println(server)
}

You don't need to use a pointer to a slice. Slices are little structures that contain a pointer, length, and capacity.
