Golang: Check Equality of Unordered Slice Structs

package main import ( "fmt" "reflect" ) type person struct { name string age int } func main() { // Two equal slices but order is different aa := []person{{"foo", 1}, {"bar", 2}} bb := []person{{"bar", 2}, {"foo", 1}} fmt.Println(reflect.DeepEqual(aa, bb)) fmt.Println(isEqual(aa, bb)) } // Check and ensure that all elements exists in another slice and // check if the length of the slices are equal. func isEqual(aa, bb []person) bool { eqCtr := 0 for _, a := range aa { for _, b := range bb { if reflect.DeepEqual(a, b) { eqCtr++ } } } if eqCtr != len(bb) || len(aa) != len(bb) { return false } return true }
