[Issue|Question] Regarding map[string][]string

[eltonsv]

Hi folks, we noticed that for configs with JSON pointing to map[string][]string, it fails with the error, and we are unable to parse these JSONs. Could you please help us if there is something wrong with the implementation? Added a test that replicates this below:

package app

import (
	"encoding/json"
	"testing"

	"github.com/caarlos0/env/v10"
	"github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
)

type AppConfigTest struct {
	FinanceAllowedRoles FinanceRolesMapTest `env:"FINANCE_ALLOWED_ROLES"`
}

type FinanceRolesMapTest map[string][]string

func (rc *FinanceRolesMapTest) UnmarshalText(b []byte) error {
	return json.Unmarshal(b, &rc)
}

func TestParseConfig(t *testing.T) {
	t.Setenv("FINANCE_ALLOWED_ROLES", `{"DEFAULT":["ADMIN"]}`)
	_, err := parseConfigTest()
	assert.Equal(t, nil, err)
}

func parseConfigTest() (AppConfigTest, error) {
	var config AppConfigTest

	if err := env.Parse(&config); err != nil {
		return AppConfigTest{}, err
	}

	return config, nil
}

yields

    config_test.go:24:

FAIL

Process finished with the exit code 1

Do you know if there is something that needs to be changed to support this in the json/implementation, or if this is an issue in the parsing?

Thank you so much

hey! you're on the right track, but the unmarshal impl needs to be a bit different afaik.

I pushed a test/example in c4db909
