Golang : Convert to io.ReadSeeker type
Problem :
You want to open a file, read the content into a buffer and then convert the buffer to io.ReadSeeker type.
Solution :
Create a buffer and then convert the buffer with bytes.NewReader(buffer)
function.
For example :
file, err := os.Open(fileToUpload)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
os.Exit(1)
}
defer file.Close()
fileInfo, _ := file.Stat()
var size int64 = fileInfo.Size()
buffer := make([]byte, size)
// read file content to buffer
file.Read(buffer)
fileBytes := bytes.NewReader(buffer) // converted to io.ReadSeeker type
