Error while parsing valid json

See original GitHub issue

First of all, thank you for this tool it is very helpful.

I was trying to encode this value:

[{"holder1": {"type1": [["value1", "value2"], ["value1", "value2"]]}}]

And it resulted in this error:

5:15: expected ';', found '[' (and 1 more errors)

The smallest structure that still shows the error is the following.

[{"holder1": {"type1": [["value"]]}}]

Ah, you’re right. @mahdi-hosseini any idea what might be causing this?

Hi Matt, I will look into it this weekend!

The issue does not seem to be caused by gofmt but rather the output of jsonToGo() is invalid Go struct. There is an extraneous Type1 in the output when the function is called with flatten = true, see here: https://play.golang.org/p/tpFHAOmFQk8

So this is probably a bug. I may be able to look into it further when I have the time.
