Is there some way to get all the packages and subpackages in the standard library, and all the structs inside those packages?

Something like what: https://golang.org/pkg/ outputs, but in a parseable format such as json

Have you looked into the go doc and godoc commands?

If this is a proposal, it should propose something more specific. For example, adding JSON output to eithere of those tools (assuming there isn't yet such a feature) could be a proposal.

its clear go doc has the capability. Adding JSON output is what I'm referring to.

Well, the proposal is very short, so I'm making no assumptions as to what you meant.

Start with go list std (look at go help list for formatting info). Then feed that to go doc / godoc / go/doc or something else custom to match your exact needs.
