How to encode and decode data using MessagePack format in Go?

To encode and decode data using MessagePack format in Go, you can use the msgpack package. Here's an example of how to do it:

Install the MessagePack package:

go get github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack

Import the necessary packages in your Go file:

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/vmihailenco/msgpack"
)

Define a struct to represent your data:

type Person struct {
	Name  string
	Age   int
	Email string
}

Encode the data using the Marshal function:

person := Person{
	Name:  "John Doe",
	Age:   30,
	Email: "[email protected]",
}

encoded, err := msgpack.Marshal(person)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Error encoding data:", err)
	return
}

fmt.Println("Encoded data:", encoded)

Decode the data using the Unmarshal function:

var decoded Person
err = msgpack.Unmarshal(encoded, &decoded)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("Error decoding data:", err)
	return
}

fmt.Println("Decoded data:", decoded)

That's it! You have successfully encoded and decoded data using MessagePack format in Go.
