## Features
- Primitives, arrays, maps, structs, time.Time and interface{}.
- Appengine \*datastore.Key and datastore.Cursor.
- [CustomEncoder]/[CustomDecoder] interfaces for custom encoding.
- [Extensions](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#example-RegisterExt) to encode
type information.
- Renaming fields via `msgpack:"my_field_name"` and alias via `msgpack:"alias:another_name"`.
- Omitting individual empty fields via `msgpack:",omitempty"` tag or all
[empty fields in a struct](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#example-Marshal-OmitEmpty).
- [Map keys sorting](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#Encoder.SetSortMapKeys).
- Encoding/decoding all
[structs as arrays](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#Encoder.UseArrayEncodedStructs)
or
[individual structs](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#example-Marshal-AsArray).
- [Encoder.SetCustomStructTag] with [Decoder.SetCustomStructTag] can turn msgpack into drop-in
replacement for any tag.
- Simple but very fast and efficient
[queries](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5#example-Decoder.Query).

## Installation
msgpack supports 2 last Go versions and requires support for
[Go modules](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules). So make sure to initialize a Go module:
```shell
go mod init github.com/my/repo
```
And then install msgpack/v5 (note _v5_ in the import; omitting it is a popular mistake):
```shell
go get github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5
```
## Quickstart
```go
import "github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack/v5"
func ExampleMarshal() {
type Item struct {
Foo string
}
b, err := msgpack.Marshal(&Item{Foo: "bar"})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
var item Item
err = msgpack.Unmarshal(b, &item)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(item.Foo)
// Output: bar
}
```
