This question already has an answer here:

How do I initialize a composed struct in Go? (1 answer)

Closed 8 months ago.

I have two packages where Package B imports Package A, like this:

Package A

package A

type Car struct {
    Color       string
    Make        string
    Model       string
}

Package B

package B

type car struct {
    *A.Car
}

func NewCar() car {
    return &car{
        Color: "red",
        Make:  "toyota",
        Model: "prius"}
}

However, this gives me the error: cannot use promoted field Car.Color in struct literal of type car inside NewCar function, how do I fix this? Everything I have read online just makes me more confused.

You need:

func NewCar() *car {
    return &car{ &A.Car{
        Color: "red",
        Make:  "toyota",
        Model: "prius",
    }}
}
