Class MsgPack

Direct Known Subclasses:
MsgPackBase64, MsgPackNative, MsgPackSpacedHex

public class MsgPack extends StreamMarshaller
A pairing of a MsgPackSerializer and MsgPackParser into a single class with convenience to/of methods.

The general idea is to combine a single serializer and parser inside a simplified API for serializing and parsing POJOs.

Examples:

// Using instance. MsgPack msgPack = new MsgPack(); MyPojo myPojo = msgPack.read(bytes, MyPojo.class); byte[] bytes = msgPack.write(myPojo);

// Using DEFAULT instance. MyPojo myPojo = MsgPack.DEFAULT.read(bytes, MyPojo.class); byte[] bytes = MsgPack.DEFAULT.write(myPojo);

// Using static shortcuts. MyPojo myPojo = MsgPack.to(bytes, MyPojo.class); byte[] bytes = MsgPack.of(myPojo);

      public static byte[] of(Object object) throws SerializeException
      Serializes a POJO to a byte[] using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.write(object).

      Parameters:
      object - The object to serialize.
      Returns:
      The serialized object.
      Throws:
      SerializeException - If a problem occurred trying to convert the output.

      public static <T> T to(byte[] input, Class<T> type) throws ParseException
      Parses an input into the specified object type using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.read(input, type).

      Type Parameters:
      T - The class type of the object being created.
      Parameters:
      input - The input.
      type - The object type to create.
      Returns:
      The parsed object.
      Throws:
      ParseException - Malformed input encountered.
    • to

      public static <T> T to(byte[] input, Type type, Type... args) throws ParseException
      Parses an input into the specified parameterized object type using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.read(input, type, args).

      Type Parameters:
      T - The class type of the object to create.
      Parameters:
      input - The input.
      type - The object type to create.
      args - The type arguments of the class if it's a collection or map.
      Returns:
      The parsed object.
      Throws:
      ParseException - Malformed input encountered.
    • to

      public static <T> T to(InputStream input, Class<T> type) throws ParseException
      Parses the contents of an InputStream into the specified object type using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.read(input, type) that catches any IOException from the underlying stream and rethrows it as an unchecked ParseException, so the caller is not burdened with a checked exception.

      Type Parameters:
      T - The class type of the object being created.
      Parameters:
      input - The input stream.
      type - The object type to create.
      Returns:
      The parsed object.
      Throws:
      ParseException - Malformed input encountered or an I/O error occurred on the underlying stream.
    • to

      public static <T> T to(InputStream input, Type type, Type... args) throws ParseException
      Parses the contents of an InputStream into the specified parameterized object type using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.read(input, type, args) that catches any IOException from the underlying stream and rethrows it as an unchecked ParseException, so the caller is not burdened with a checked exception.

      Type Parameters:
      T - The class type of the object to create.
      Parameters:
      input - The input stream.
      type - The object type to create.
      args - The type arguments of the class if it's a collection or map.
      Returns:
      The parsed object.
      Throws:
      ParseException - Malformed input encountered or an I/O error occurred on the underlying stream.

      public static void of(Object object, OutputStream output) throws SerializeException
      Serializes a POJO to the specified OutputStream using the DEFAULT marshaller.

      A shortcut for calling DEFAULT.write(object, output) that catches any IOException from the underlying stream and rethrows it as an unchecked SerializeException, so the caller is not burdened with a checked exception.

      Parameters:
      object - The object to serialize.
      output - The output stream to serialize to.
      Throws:
      SerializeException - If a problem occurred trying to convert the output or an I/O error occurred on the underlying stream.
