Unquote in Go

Posted by GoDoc

Unquote interprets s as a single-quoted, double-quoted, or backquoted Go string literal, returning the string value that s quotes. (If s is single-quoted, it would be a Go character literal; Unquote returns the corresponding one-character string.)

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"strconv"
)

func main() {
	s, err := strconv.Unquote("You can't unquote a string without quotes")
	fmt.Printf("%q, %v\n", s, err)
	s, err = strconv.Unquote("\"The string must be either double-quoted\"")
	fmt.Printf("%q, %v\n", s, err)
	s, err = strconv.Unquote("`or backquoted.`")
	fmt.Printf("%q, %v\n", s, err)
	s, err = strconv.Unquote("'\u263a'") // single character only allowed in single quotes
	fmt.Printf("%q, %v\n", s, err)
	s, err = strconv.Unquote("'\u2639\u2639'")
	fmt.Printf("%q, %v\n", s, err)
}
