JB4JSON-LD Jackson Example

This application is a bare-bones example of how JB4JSON-LD and its integration with Jackson works. It is a command line application that allows serialization and deserialization of sample data.

Requirements

The demo requires:

• JDK 8 or later
• Apache Maven 3.3 or later

How to Run

To run the demo, mvn exec:java can be used (note that mvn package needs to be run to build the example app first).

The following options can be used as program arguments to specify what the demo application should do.

• su - Serialize a single instance of class User
• slu - Serialize a list of instances of class User
• so - Serialize a single instance of class Organization having references to a set of instances of class User (with backward references)
• du - Deserialize a single instance of class User. The second argument can be used to specify path to a file containing JSON-LD to deserialize. If not provided, default sample data will be used.
• do - Deserialize a single instance of class Organization. The second argument can be used to specify path to a file containing JSON-LD to deserialize. If not provided, default sample data will be used.

For example:

mvn package exec:java -Dexec.args=su or mvn package exec:java -Dexec.args="du user.json"

Jackson Integration

Jackson ObjectMapper is configured in the Example class, method initObjectMapper.
