Hi, I just came across this library and started playing with it for one of my use case. I have some dynamic domain types in my application which can be created through UI and user can provide name, types for all attributes etc. which is then saved to DB. Now for the data I need to create dynamic Struct from the DB which has type already stored. So is it possible to add field like below

dynamicstruct.NewStruct()
    .AddField("Name", string, `json:"name"`).Build().New()

Hi. Yes, it's possible, just for type you need to pass some value which is of that type. So, if you want string, you pass, for example, an empty string. For int, you pass some integer number etc:

0 // int "" //string 0.0 //float64 int64(0) //int64 ...
