XML/JSON Responses

Functionality to decode responses to XML and JSON is provided by the BodyUnmarshalXML and BodyUnmarshalJSON functions. These functions are used to decode the response body to a struct, map or slice.

    // Autodetect the body type (json, xml, yaml) and unmarshal it to the struct

    if err = response.BodyUnmarshalJSON(&data); err != nil {
