6.json Notes

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, platform-independent data format used for transferring data in key-value pairs. Java applications can utilize JSON through third-party libraries like Jackson and Gson for serialization and deserialization of Java objects. The document provides examples of how to implement JSON handling in Java using both Jackson and Gson APIs.

======

JSON
======

=> JSON stands for Java Script Object Notation

=> JSON represents data in key-value format

Ex:

{
"id" : 101,
"name" : "Ashok",
"phno" : 12345,
"gender" : "Male"
}

=> JSON is very light weight

=> JSON is platform independent & language independent

=> JSON is used to transfer data over a network

=> Distributed applications will use JSON data for request & response

=========================================
Working with JSON in Java Applications
==========================================

=> Java Applications can use JSON data

=> To work with JSON in Java app, we have third party libraries

a) Jackson
b) Gson

=> By using above libraries we can convert JSON data to Java Object and vice versa

jackson/gson
java obj <----------------------> json data

=> The process of converting java obj to json is called as Serialization.

=> The process of converting json data to java obj is called as de-serialization.

==============
Jackson API
==============

1) Add below dependency in pom.xml file

<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.17.0</version>
</dependency>

2) Create binding class to represent data

public class Customer {

private Integer id;


private String name;
private Long phno;

3) Develop java class convert java to json and json to java

ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();

mapper.writeValue(File f, Object obj);

mapper.readValue(File f, Class clz);

===================================================================================
===
public class App {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {


App a = new App();
//a.convertJavaToJson();
a.convertJsonToJava();
}

public void convertJsonToJava() throws Exception{


ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Customer c = mapper.readValue(new File("customer.json"),
Customer.class);
System.out.println(c);
}

public void convertJavaToJson() throws Exception {


Customer c = new Customer(101, "John", 9985396677l);
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.writeValue(new File("customer.json"), c);
System.out.println("Serialization completed...");
}
}
