Check out https://github.com/mitchellh/mapstructure The readme has an answer you probably look for.

problem is if you have configuration or an encoding that changes slightly depending on specific fields.

 

Perhaps we can't populate a specific structure without first reading the "type" field from the JSON. We could always do two passes over the decoding of the JSON (reading the "type" first, and the rest later). However, it is much simpler to just decode this into a map[string]interface{} structure, read the "type" key, then use something like this library to decode it into the proper structure.
