UnmarshalPayload for errors?

[tisba]

I'm trying to figure out how I am supposed to use jsonapi to unmarshal an error response I got from my API:

{
  "message": "User could not be updated",
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": "E23",
      "source": {
        "pointer": "/data/attributes/email"
      },
      "title": "Error Title",
      "detail": "More detailed error message",
      "meta": {
        // object with meta data
      }
    }
  ]
}

I first tried

item := new(jsonapi.ErrorsPayload)
err = jsonapi.UnmarshalPayload(errorBody, item)

but this does not work, because jsonapi.UnmarshalPayload does expect a data attribute (https://github.com/google/jsonapi/blob/master/request.go#L71). At this point I got lost and I'm not sure how this is supposed to be used...

I have this problem as well :(

@tisba @chriswalz I have submitted a PR. If you take a look at it you'll see how to do this yourself - it's quite simple - yet I think it'd be nice if they merged it.

Any word on this getting merged in?

Still no update on this PR?

In the meanwhile has everyone added their own wrappers to unmarshal error?
