Petals BC REST

Move from Jettison to Staxon for JSON<->XML conversion, customization via SU parameters

Details

  • Type: Improvement Request Improvement Request
  • Status: In Progress In Progress
  • Priority: Major Major
  • Resolution: Unresolved
  • Affects Version/s: 1.0.1-BC
  • Fix Version/s: 2.5.0-BC
  • Component/s: Consumer mode, Provider mode
  • Security Level: Public
  • Description:
    Hide

    Jettison is quite limited in the way it can be customized and its badgerfish conversion implementation is missing some important features (in particular to handle JSON document that would be converted to XML documents with multiple roots, something forbidden in XML).

    Staxon is an alternative implementation that supports an improved badgerfish conversion that is customizable.
    It is also more efficient in terms of memory usage and can use gson, jackson or jsr353 as the JSON reader/writer.

    Moving to Staxon introduces the following SU parameters (both for provides and consumes):

    http-body-to-json-multiple-pi default to false
http-body-from-json-multiple-pi default to false

http-body-to-json-virtual-root default to null
http-body-from-json-virtual-root default to null

http-body-to-json-auto-array default to false

http-body-to-json-auto-primitive default to false

http-body-to-json-pretty-print default to false

http-body-to-json-ns-declarations default to false

namespace-mapping/@prefix (value is the namespace URI, no mapping by default)

    See https://github.com/beckchr/staxon/wiki/Factory-Configuration for details.

    We could also introduce options to exploit XMLMultipleStreamWriter (see https://github.com/beckchr/staxon/wiki/Mastering-Arrays).
