Parsing the output

parser.Parse() returns a []byte encoded json value

file, err := os.ReadFile("parser/test.txt")
test := parser.Parse(string(file))

Encoding JSON to dmidecode struct

You can use []parser.DMIType in combination with json.Unmarshall to convert your json encoded dmidecode output to a struct

var dmiTypes []parser.DMIType
json.Unmarshal(test, &dmiTypes)
