Java FX Viewer

Description

• I am ViewerFX
• I am Java and JavaFx App
• I am not specific tool but more like tool framework
• I am very ugly prototype - do not judge my code - my developer is learning JavaFX

Motivation

• I need base platform for different data file formats.
• I need be able open multiple file formats with lot of different records
• I need to be able visualize parsed records in list for filter/sort
• I need to be able show main part of record in Raw/Formatted or custom view.

Features

• drag and drop file into app will load the file
• CDI for plugin mechanism - I don't like discover via classpath
  • discover custom view per record type
  • discover custom formatters per record type
  • discover custom parsers
• parsers
  • delimiter file like CSV
• formatters
  • xml formatter
  • json formatter
• views
  • xml tree view with/out compact mode
  • tree view for json file

TODO

• tool data model need rework
• time to onboard some design patterns
• CDI for plugin mechanism from other libs
  • events
  • producers
• configuration
  • general for tool
  • possibility load plugin config
• select event - select anything in any view should propagate and select in other view - tricky one
  • looks like work for javafx events or CDI events
• search and mark interested records
• table view
  • show/hide columns in table
  • filter table records
  • sort table records
• formatters
  • nothing planned except make them more effecient
• views
  • general map view as key value
• parsers
  • regex based parser
  • log4j format parser
