In golang is there a nice way of getting a slice of values from a map?

Question

If I have a map m is there a better way of getting a slice of the values v then

package main
import (
  \"fmt\"
)

func main() {
    m := make(map[int]string

You can use this maps package:

go get https://github.com/drgrib/maps

Then all you have to call is

values := maps.GetValuesIntString(m)

It's type-safe for that common map combination. You can generate other type-safe functions for any other type of map using the mapper tool in the same package.

Full disclosure: I am the creator of this package. I created it because I found myself rewriting these functions for map repeatedly.
