Golang Masker

Golang Masker is a simple utility of creating a mask for sensitive information.

• Getting Started

Getting Started

$ go get -u github.com/ggwhite/go-masker

Demo

There are two ways to get a masker instance:

1. Get a instance directly from go-masker package

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

func main() {
	masker.Name("ggwhite")
	masker.ID("A123456789")
	masker.Mobile("0978978978")
}

2. Get a instance via masker.New()

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

func main() {
	m := masker.New()
	m.Name("ggwhite")
	m.ID("A123456789")
	m.Mobile("0978978978")
}

Mask Types

Type	Const	Tag	Description
Name	MName	name	mask the second letter and the third letter
Password	MPassword	password	always return ************
Address	MAddress	addr	keep first 6 letters, mask the rest
Email	MEmail	email	keep domain and the first 3 letters
Mobile	MMobile	mobile	mask 3 digits from the 4'th digit
Telephone	MTelephone	tel	remove (, ), , - chart, and mask last 4 digits of telephone number, format to (??)????-????
ID	MID	id	mask last 4 digits of ID number
CreditCard	MCreditCard	credit	mask 6 digits from the 7'th digit
Struct	MStruct	struct	mask the struct

Mask the String

String methomd requires two parameters, a mask type CONST and a string:

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

func main() {
	masker.String(masker.MName, "ggwhite")
	masker.String(masker.MID, "A123456789")
	masker.String(masker.MMobile, "0987987987")
}

Result:

g**hite
A12345****
0987***987

Custom Mask

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

func main() {
	masker.String(masker.MName, "ggwhite")
	masker.String(masker.MID, "A123456789")
	masker.SetMask("-")
	masker.String(masker.MMobile, "0987987987")
}

Result:

g**hite
A12345****
0987---987

Mask the Struct

You can define your struct and add tag mask to let masker know what kind of the format to mask.

Field must be public in the struct.

package main

import (
	"log"
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

type Foo struct {
	Name   string `mask:"name"`
	Mobile string `mask:"mobile"`
}

func main() {
	foo := &Foo{
		Name:   "ggwhite",
		Mobile: "0987987987",
	}
	t, err := masker.Struct(foo)
	log.Println(t)
	log.Println(t.(*Foo))
	log.Println(err)
}

Result:

t = &{g**hite 0987***987} 
err = <nil>

Struct contain struct

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

type Foo struct {
	Name   string `mask:"name"`
	Mobile string `mask:"mobile"`
	Qoo    *Qoo   `mask:"struct"`
}

type Qoo struct {
	Name      string `mask:"name"`
	Telephone string `mask:"tel"`
}

func main() {
	foo := &Foo{
		Name:   "ggwhite",
		Mobile: "0987987987",
		Qoo: &Qoo{
			Name:      "gino",
			Telephone: "0287658765",
		},
	}
	t, err := masker.Struct(foo)
	log.Println(t)
	log.Println(t.(*Foo).Qoo)
	log.Println(err)
}

Result:

t = &{g**hite 0987***987 0xc00000a080}
t.Qoo = &{g**o (02)8765-****}
err = <nil>

Struct contain string slice

package main

import (
	masker "github.com/ggwhite/go-masker"
)

type Foo struct {
	Name   string `mask:"name"`
	Mobile string `mask:"mobile"`
	IDs    []string   `mask:"id"`
}

func main() {
	foo := &Foo{
		Name:   "ggwhite",
		Mobile: "0987987987",
		IDs: []string{
			"A123456789",
			"A987654321",
		},
	}
	t, err := masker.Struct(foo)
	log.Println(t)
	log.Println(err)
}

Result:

t = &{g**hite 0987***987 [A12345**** A98765****]}
err = <nil>
