Apache Tamaya — Extension: Builder

Tamaya JSON (Extension Module)

Overview

The Tamaya json module provides support for reading configuration using the JSON format:

Compatibility

The module is based on Java 7, so it will not run on Java 7 and beyond.

Installation

To benefit from configuration builder support you only must add the corresponding dependency to your module:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.tamaya.ext</groupId>
  <artifactId>tamaya-json</artifactId>
  <version>{tamayaVersion}</version>
</dependency>

Reading configuration in JSON

For reading JSON based onfiguration most easily a JSONFormat can be provided:

ConfigurationData dataRead = ConfigurationFormats.readConfig(
    getClassLoader().getResource("myFileConfig.json"), new JSonFOrmat()));

Examples

The JSON module adds instances of ConfigurationFormat so JSON configuration can be read and mapped to the according property maps. E.g. the following file is a simple and correct JSON configuration:

{
  "a" : "A",
  "b" : "B",
  "c" : "C",
  "d" : {
      "o" : "O",
      "p" : "P"
    }
}
