Zero JSR311, @BodyParam…Pojo

In many projects, you’ll defined your own Data Object with Java Class, it means that you have your own type instead of JsonObject and JsonArray, in this situation zero also provide json serialization for different java type, especially for some user-defined POJO class.

Demo projects:

1. Source Code

Create your pojo class: JsonUser with lombok tool ( We recommend to use because the code could be simple ):

package up.god.micro.params;

import lombok.Data;

@Data
public class JsonUser {

    private String username;
    private String email;
    private Integer age;
}

Then you can create your own endpoint for JsonUser

package up.god.micro.params;

import io.vertx.up.annotations.EndPoint;

import jakarta.ws.rs.BodyParam;
import javax.ws.rs.POST;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;

@EndPoint
@Path("/api")
public class PojoExecutor {

    @POST
    @Path("param/pojo")
    public JsonUser sayUser(
            @BodyParam final JsonUser user
    ) {
        return user;
    }

    @POST
    @Path("param/pojos")
    public List<JsonUser> sayUsers(
            @BodyParam final Set<JsonUser> users
    ) {
        return new ArrayList<>(users);
    }
}

2. Console

Then you should see the logs in console as following:

......
[ ZERO ] ( 2 Event ) The endpoint up.god.micro.params.PojoExecutor scanned 2 events of Event, \
    will be mounted to routing system.
......
[ ZERO ] ( Uri Register ) "/api/param/pojo" has been deployed by ZeroHttpAgent, Options = Route...
[ ZERO ] ( Uri Register ) "/api/param/pojos" has been deployed by ZeroHttpAgent, Options = Route...
......

3. Testing

3.1. Object Request

URL : http://localhost:6083/api/param/pojo

Method: POST

Request:

{
    "username":"Lang",
    "age":33
}

Response:

{
    "data": {
        "username": "Lang",
        "age": 33
    }
}

3.2. Collection Request

URL: http://localhost:6083/api/param/pojos

Method: POST

Request:

[
    {
        "username":"Lang",
        "age":33
    },
    {
        "username":"Xi",
        "email":"lang.xi@hpe.com"
    }
]

Response:

{
    "data": [
        {
            "username": "Xi",
            "email": "lang.xi@hpe.com"
        },
        {
            "username": "Lang",
            "age": 33
        }
    ]
}

4. Summary

In zero system, it support json serialization from literal to correct type for Pojo and Pojo collection, you can put your java class after @BodyParam annotation and zero system will convert it automatically for the parameters of endpoint method.
