How to convert (type *bytes.Buffer) to use as []byte in argument to w.Write

Question

I\'m trying to return some json back from the server but get this error with the following code

cannot use buffer (type *bytes.Buffer) as type []byte in argument         


        

Answer 1

This is how I solved my problem

readBuf, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(jsonStoredInBuffVariable)

This code will read from the buffer variable and output []byte value
