JSON2JEVisClassesCreator

Automatically create JEVis-classes as given by json-file

Structure

There must always be a rootnode given in the JSON-file under which the classes are described to be.

See create_test_classes.json for an example on how to create classes.

Operations

The following commands can be given (default is 0). The commands are given in the "operation" field of the JSON-file

private interface OPERATIONS {
        final long CREATE = 0; // or update
        final long IGNORE = -1;
        final long DELETE = -2;
        final long DELETE_RECURSIVE = -3;
        final long RENAME = -4;
    }

Note: the operation RENAME is not implemented. Pull requests are quite welcome.

Ignore

Operation IGNORE with the value -1 can be used to describe the structure under which to later create a new class (or delete one).

Create

the default operation if none is described. Tries to create the described class with all its attributes (keyword type), primitive types (keyword primitiveType) and valid parents (keyword validParents). Other classes under this class can be given in the keyword children.

Note: if the class already exists then the creator bails out and processes the next class, thus nothing is changed. Pull requests for update-functionality are welcome.

Delete

Operation -2 deletes the described class. Children of this class are then automatically moved to the root.

To delete a class and all sub-classes under the described class use Operation -3.

See delete_test_classes.json for an example on how to delete classes.
