GoLang fmt Printing Cheat Sheet

by Guillermo Pascual (gpascual) via cheatography.com/32181/cs/9868/

String and slice of bytes Boolean

%s the uninte​rpreted bytes of the string or slice %t the word true or false

%q a double​-quoted string safely escaped with Go syntax


Integer
%x base 16, lower-​case, two characters per byte

%X base 16, upper-​case, two characters per byte %b base 2

%c the character repres​ented by the corres​ponding Unicode code point


General %d base 10

%v The value in a default format. When printing structs, the plus flag %o base 8
(%+v) adds field names.
%q a single​-quoted character literal safely escaped with Go syntax
%#v a Go-syntax repres​ent​ation of the value
%x base 16, with lower-case letters for a-f
%T a Go-syntax repres​ent​ation of the type of the value %X base 16, with upper-case letters for A-F
%% a literal percent sign; consumes no value
%U Unicode format: U+1234; same as "​U+%​04X​"

The default format for %v Floati​ng-​point and complex consti​tuents

bool: %t %b decima​lless scientific notation with exponent a power of two, in the


int, int8 etc.: %d manner of strcon​v.F​orm​atFloat with the 'b' format, e.g. -12345​6p-78

uint, uint8 etc.: %d, %x if printed with %#v %e scientific notation, e.g. -1.234​456e+78

float32, complex64, etc: %g %E scientific notation, e.g. -1.234​456E+78

string: %s %f decimal point but no exponent, e.g. 123.456

chan: %p %F synonym for %f

pointer: %p %g %e for large exponents, %f otherwise

%G %E for large exponents, %F otherwise


Other flags

+ always print a sign for numeric values; guarantee ASCII-only Floati​ng-​point Precision

output for %q (%+q). %f default width, default precision


- pad with spaces on the right rather than the left (left-​justify the
%9f width 9, default precision
field).
%.2f default width, precision 2
# alternate format: add leading 0 for octal (%#o), 0x for hex
%9.2f width 9, precision 2
(%#x); 0X for hex (%#X); suppress 0x for %p (%#p); for %q,
print a raw (backq​uoted) string if strcon​v.C​anB​ack​quote returns %9.f width 9, precision 0
true;

'' leave a space for elided sign in numbers (% d); put spaces Pointer

(space) between bytes printing strings or slices in hex (% x, % X).


%p base 16 notation, with leading 0x
0 pad with leading zeros rather than spaces; for numbers, this
moves the padding after the sign.
