I am using supercsv to write a POJO with an attribute containing string array to csv. The CsvBeanWriter simply writes the object address instead of its value in the column. Is there any settings to map the value correctly?
EXPECTED
name friends
john dimitry,olaf,nett
ACTUAL
name friends
john [Ljava.lang.String;#50ccb5a3
The solution was to write my own cell processor. I wrote a String[] processor, which returns a comma separated value as a string.
final CellProcessor[] PROCESSORS = new CellProcessor[] {
new NotNull(),
new ParseStringArray()
};
beanWriter = new CsvBeanWriter(new FileWriter(file), TAB_PREFERENCE);
for (Object object: data) {
beanWriter.write(object, header, PROCESSORS);
}
class ParseStringArray extends CellProcessorAdaptor implements StringCellProcessor {
#Override
public <T> T execute(final Object value, final CsvContext context) {
validateInputNotNull(value, context);
String result;
if (value instanceof String[]) {
result = StringUtils.join((String[]) value, ",");
} else {
final String actualClassName = value.getClass().getName();
throw new SuperCsvCellProcessorException(String.format(
"the input value should be of type String array but is of type %s", actualClassName), context, this);
}
return next.execute(result, context);
}
}

I want to keep a part of a JSON as String value.
As far as i know, there is no way with Annotations, but i could not find a way how to get the full Object/Array value as String.
There is a Workaround, which works, by reading it as an Object and instantly write it back as an String by using the ObjectMapper of Jackson.
You can imagine, this is a horrible solution for very big JSONs.
public class DeserializeTest {
private static ObjectMapper mapper;
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
mapper = Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder.json().build();
mapper.findAndRegisterModules();
SimpleModule module = new SimpleModule();
module.addDeserializer(TestClassWrapper.class, new TestDeserializer());
mapper.registerModule(module);
String json = "{\"name\":\"testprop\", \"data\":[{\"prop\":\"test\"},{\"prop\":\"test1\"},{\"prop\":\"test2\"}]}";
TestClassWrapper t = mapper.readValue(json, TestClassWrapper.class);
// later in program, when i know the expected class
TestClass o = unwrap(t, new TypeReference<ArrayList<Test2>>() {});
}
public static class TestClassWrapper {
String name;
String data;
// removed getter and setter
}
public static class TestClass {
String name;
List<Test2> data;
// removed getter and setter
}
public static class Test2 {
String prop;
// removed getter and setter
}
public static class TestDeserializer extends JsonDeserializer<TestClassWrapper> {
#Override
public TestClassWrapper deserialize(JsonParser p, DeserializationContext ctxt) throws IOException {
TestClassWrapper t = new TestClassWrapper();
String key = p.getCurrentName();
if (key == null) {
p.nextToken();
key = p.getCurrentName();
}
for (; key != null; key = p.nextFieldName()) {
p.nextToken();
switch (key) {
case "name":
t.name = p.getValueAsString();
break;
case "data":
// what i tried:
System.out.println(p.getText()); // [
System.out.println(p.getValueAsString()); // NULL
System.out.println(p.getCurrentValue()); //NULL
System.out.println(p.getCurrentToken()); // [ TOKEN
System.out.println(p.getParsingContext().getCurrentValue()); // NULL
System.out.println(p.getParsingContext().toString()); // [0]
System.out.println(p.getEmbeddedObject()); // NULL
System.out.println(p.getTextCharacters()); // [
try {
System.out.println(ctxt.readValue(p, String.class)); // MismatchedInputException
} catch (MismatchedInputException e){}
// The only way i could make it work.
// Parse to a object and write it back as string.
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
Iterator<Object> it = p.readValuesAs(Object.class);
while (it.hasNext()) {
sb.append(mapper.writeValueAsString(it.next()));
sb.append(it.hasNext() ? "," : "");
}
t.data = p.getCurrentToken() == JsonToken.END_ARRAY ? "[" + sb.toString() + "]" : sb.toString();
break;
}
}
return t;
}
}
public static TestClass unwrap(TestClassWrapper t, TypeReference targetClass) throws IOException {
TestClass o = new TestClass();
o.name = t.name;
o.data = mapper.readValue(t.data, targetClass);
return o;
}
}
How can i tell the JsonParser object, to just give me the String of the current value?
(For data this would be: "[{"prop":"test"}, {"prop":"test1"}, {"prop":"test2"}]")
While writing Beans to CSV file by using OpenCSV 4.6, all the headers are changing to uppercase. Eventhough bean has #CsvBindByName annotation it is changing to uppercase.
Java Bean:
public class ProjectInfo implements Serializable {
#CsvBindByName(column = "ProjectName",required = true)
private String projectName;
#CsvBindByName(column = "ProjectCode",required = true)
private String projectCode;
#CsvBindByName(column = "Visibility",required = true)
private String visibility;
//setters and getters
}
Main method
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
Collection<Serializable> projectInfos = getProjectsInfo();
try(BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("test.csv"))){
StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder builder = new StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder(writer);
StatefulBeanToCsv beanWriter = builder
.withSeparator(';')
.build();
try {
beanWriter.write(projectInfos.iterator());
writer.flush();
} catch (CsvDataTypeMismatchException | CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("Failed to download admin file");
}
}
}
Expected Result:
"ProjectCode";"ProjectName";"Visibility"
"ANY";"Country DU";"1"
"STD";"Standard";"1"
"TST";"Test";"1"
"CMM";"CMMTest";"1"
Acutal Result:
"PROJECTCODE";"PROJECTNAME";"VISIBILITY"
"ANY";"Country DU";"1"
"STD";"Standard";"1"
"TST";"Test";"1"
"CMM";"CMMTest";"1"
I don't have option to use ColumnMappingStrategy because I have to build this method as a generic solution.
can anyone suggest me how to write the headers as it is?
It happens, because the code in HeaderColumnNameMappingStrategy uses toUpperCase() for storing and retrieving the field names.
You could use the HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy instead and create the mapping by reflection.
public class AnnotationStrategy extends HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy
{
public AnnotationStrategy(Class<?> clazz)
{
Map<String,String> map=new HashMap<>();
//To prevent the column sorting
List<String> originalFieldOrder=new ArrayList<>();
for(Field field:clazz.getDeclaredFields())
{
CsvBindByName annotation = field.getAnnotation(CsvBindByName.class);
if(annotation!=null)
{
map.put(annotation.column(),annotation.column());
originalFieldOrder.add(annotation.column());
}
}
setType(clazz);
setColumnMapping(map);
//Order the columns as they were created
setColumnOrderOnWrite((a,b) -> Integer.compare(originalFieldOrder.indexOf(a), originalFieldOrder.indexOf(b)));
}
#Override
public String[] generateHeader(Object bean) throws CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException
{
String[] result=super.generateHeader(bean);
for(int i=0;i<result.length;i++)
{
result[i]=getColumnName(i);
}
return result;
}
}
And, assuming that there is only one class of items (and always at least one item), the creation of beanWriter has to be expanded:
StatefulBeanToCsv beanWriter = builder.withSeparator(';')
.withMappingStrategy(new AnnotationStrategy(projectInfos.iterator().next().getClass()))
.build();
Actually, HeaderColumnNameMappingStrategy uses toUpperCase() for storing and retrieving the field names.
In order to use custom field name you have to annotate you field with #CsvBindByName
#CsvBindByName(column = "Partner Code" )
private String partnerCode;
By default it will be capitalized to PARTNER CODE because of the above reason.
so, in order to take control over it we have to write a class implementing HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy. With csv 5.0 and java8 i have implemented like this
import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import com.opencsv.bean.CsvBindByName;
import com.opencsv.bean.HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy;
import com.opencsv.exceptions.CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException;
public class AnnotationStrategy<T> extends HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy<T> {
Map<String, String> columnMap = new HashMap<>();
public AnnotationStrategy(Class<? extends T> clazz) {
for (Field field : clazz.getDeclaredFields()) {
CsvBindByName annotation = field.getAnnotation(CsvBindByName.class);
if (annotation != null) {
columnMap.put(field.getName().toUpperCase(), annotation.column());
}
}
setType(clazz);
}
#Override
public String getColumnName(int col) {
String name = headerIndex.getByPosition(col);
return name;
}
public String getColumnName1(int col) {
String name = headerIndex.getByPosition(col);
if(name != null) {
name = columnMap.get(name);
}
return name;
}
#Override
public String[] generateHeader(T bean) throws CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException {
String[] result = super.generateHeader(bean);
for (int i = 0; i < result.length; i++) {
result[i] = getColumnName1(i);
}
return result;
}
}
I have tried other solutions but it doesn't work when the property name and column name are not the same.
I am using 5.6. My solution is to reuse the strategy.
public class CsvRow {
#CsvBindByName(column = "id")
private String id;
// Property name and column name are different
#CsvBindByName(column = "country_code")
private String countryCode;
}
// We are going to reuse this strategy
HeaderColumnNameMappingStrategy<CsvRow> strategy = new HeaderColumnNameMappingStrategy<>();
strategy.setType(CsvRow.class);
// Build the header line which respects the declaration order
// So its value will be "id,country_code"
String headerLine = Arrays.stream(CsvRow.class.getDeclaredFields())
.map(field -> field.getAnnotation(CsvBindByName.class))
.filter(Objects::nonNull)
.map(CsvBindByName::column)
.collect(Collectors.joining(","));
// Let the library to initialize column details in the strategy
try (StringReader stringReader = new StringReader(headerLine);
CSVReader reader = new CSVReader(stringReader)) {
CsvToBean<CsvRow> csv = new CsvToBeanBuilder<CsvRow>(reader)
.withType(CsvRow.class)
.withMappingStrategy(strategy)
.build();
for (CsvRow csvRow : csv) {}
}
The strategy is ready for writing csv file.
try (OutputStream outputStream = Files.newOutputStream(Path.of("test.csv"));
OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream)) {
StatefulBeanToCsv<CsvRow> csv = new StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<CsvRow>(writer)
.withMappingStrategy(strategy)
.withThrowExceptions(true)
.build();
csv.write(csvRows);
}
Using opencsv 5.0 and Java 8, I had to modify AnnotationStrategy class code as follows to had it compiled :
import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import com.opencsv.bean.CsvBindByName;
import com.opencsv.bean.HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy;
import com.opencsv.exceptions.CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException;
public class AnnotationStrategy<T> extends HeaderColumnNameTranslateMappingStrategy<T> {
public AnnotationStrategy(Class<? extends T> clazz) {
Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<>();
for (Field field : clazz.getDeclaredFields()) {
CsvBindByName annotation = field.getAnnotation(CsvBindByName.class);
if (annotation != null) {
map.put(annotation.column(), annotation.column());
}
}
setType(clazz);
setColumnMapping(map);
}
#Override
public String[] generateHeader(T bean) throws CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException {
String[] result = super.generateHeader(bean);
for (int i = 0; i < result.length; i++) {
result[i] = getColumnName(i);
}
return result;
}
}
I am using opencsv-4.0 to write a csv file and I need to add column headers in output file.
Here is my code.
public static void buildProductCsv(final List<Product> product,
final String filePath) {
try {
Writer writer = new FileWriter(filePath);
// mapping of columns with their positions
ColumnPositionMappingStrategy<Product> mappingStrategy = new ColumnPositionMappingStrategy<Product>();
// Set mappingStrategy type to Product Type
mappingStrategy.setType(Product.class);
// Fields in Product Bean
String[] columns = new String[] { "productCode", "MFD", "EXD" };
// Setting the colums for mappingStrategy
mappingStrategy.setColumnMapping(columns);
StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<Product> builder = new StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<Product>(writer);
StatefulBeanToCsv<Product> beanWriter = builder.withMappingStrategy(mappingStrategy).build();
// Writing data to csv file
beanWriter.write(product);
writer.close();
log.info("Your csv file has been generated!");
} catch (Exception ex) {
log.warning("Exception: " + ex.getMessage());
}
}
Above code create a csv file with data. But it not include column headers in that file.
How could I add column headers to output csv?
ColumnPositionMappingStrategy#generateHeader returns empty array
/**
* This method returns an empty array.
* The column position mapping strategy assumes that there is no header, and
* thus it also does not write one, accordingly.
* #return An empty array
*/
#Override
public String[] generateHeader() {
return new String[0];
}
If you remove MappingStrategy from BeanToCsv builder
// replace
StatefulBeanToCsv<Product> beanWriter = builder.withMappingStrategy(mappingStrategy).build();
// with
StatefulBeanToCsv<Product> beanWriter = builder.build();
It will write Product's class members as CSV header
If your Product class members names are
"productCode", "MFD", "EXD"
This should be the right solution
Else, add #CsvBindByName annotation
import com.opencsv.bean.CsvBindByName;
import com.opencsv.bean.StatefulBeanToCsv;
import com.opencsv.bean.StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.Writer;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class CsvTest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Writer writer = new FileWriter(fileName);
StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<Product> builder = new StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<>(writer);
StatefulBeanToCsv<Product> beanWriter = builder.build();
List<Product> products = new ArrayList<>();
products.add(new Product("1", "11", "111"));
products.add(new Product("2", "22", "222"));
products.add(new Product("3", "33", "333"));
beanWriter.write(products);
writer.close();
}
public static class Product {
#CsvBindByName(column = "productCode")
String id;
#CsvBindByName(column = "MFD")
String member2;
#CsvBindByName(column = "EXD")
String member3;
Product(String id, String member2, String member3) {
this.id = id;
this.member2 = member2;
this.member3 = member3;
}
public String getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getMember2() {
return member2;
}
public void setMember2(String member2) {
this.member2 = member2;
}
public String getMember3() {
return member3;
}
public void setMember3(String member3) {
this.member3 = member3;
}
}
}
Output:
"EXD","MFD","PRODUCTCODE"
"111","11","1"
"222","22","2"
"333","33","3"
Pay attention; class, getters & setters needs to be public due to the use of Reflection by OpenCSV library
You can append by annotation
public void export(List<YourObject> list, PrintWriter writer) throws Exception {
writer.append( buildHeader( YourObject.class ) );
StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<YourObject> builder = new StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder<>( writer );
StatefulBeanToCsv<YourObject> beanWriter = builder.build();
beanWriter.write( mapper.map( list ) );
writer.close();
}
private String buildHeader(Class<YourObject> clazz) {
return Arrays.stream( clazz.getDeclaredFields() )
.filter( f -> f.getAnnotation( CsvBindByPosition.class ) != null
&& f.getAnnotation( CsvBindByName.class ) != null )
.sorted( Comparator.comparing( f -> f.getAnnotation( CsvBindByPosition.class ).position() ) )
.map( f -> f.getAnnotation( CsvBindByName.class ).column() )
.collect( Collectors.joining( "," ) ) + "\n";
}
#Getter
#Setter
#NoArgsConstructor
#AllArgsConstructor
public class YourObject {
#CsvBindByPosition(position = 0)
#CsvBindByName(column = "A")
private Long a;
#CsvBindByPosition(position = 1)
#CsvBindByName(column = "B")
private String b;
#CsvBindByPosition(position = 2)
#CsvBindByName(column = "C")
private String c;
}
I may have missed something obvious here but couldn't you just append your header String to the writer object?
Writer writer = new FileWriter(filePath);
writer.append("header1, header2, header3, ...etc \n");
// This will be followed by your code with BeanToCsvBuilder
// Note: the terminating \n might differ pending env.
Use a HeaderColumnNameMappingStrategy for reading, then use the same strategy for writing. "Same" in this case meaning not just the same class, but really the same object.
From the javadoc of StatefulBeanToCsvBuilder.withMappingStrategy:
It is perfectly legitimate to read a CSV source, take the mapping strategy from the read operation, and pass it in to this method for a write operation. This conserves some processing time, but, more importantly, preserves header ordering.
This way you will get a CSV including headers, with columns in the same order as the original CSV.
Worked for me using OpenCSV 5.4.
Use a custom strategy
static class CustomStrategy<T> extends ColumnPositionMappingStrategy<T> {
public String[] generateHeader() {
return this.getColumnMapping();
}
}
and on CSV object that you write do not forget to provide both
#CsvBindByName(column="UID")
#CsvBindByPosition(position = 3)
You could also override the generateHeaders method and return the column mapping that is set, which will have header row in csv
ColumnPositionMappingStrategy<Product> mappingStrategy = new ColumnPositionMappingStrategy<Product>() {
#Override
public String[] generateHeader(Product bean) throws CsvRequiredFieldEmptyException {
return this.getColumnMapping();
}
};
I've created a DataGrid so:
DataGrid<String> grid = new DataGrid<String>();
grid.setPageSize(4);
TextColumn<String> date = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object;
}
};
grid.addColumn(date, "Date");
TextColumn<String> time = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object;
}
};
grid.addColumn(time, "Time");
TextColumn<String> number = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object;
}
};
grid.addColumn(number, "Number");
Now I'd like to populate it but I don't understood how to do it because I have these String[] and they must be splitted also:
textString[1]="01/01/2014;10:00;300";
textString[2]="02/02/2014;11:00;400"; ...
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE
#Sturmination I followed your hint but there is another problem for this code(assuming that splitting is done):
..
protected static List<Example> EXAMPLES = null;
..
public void method() {
...
EXAMPLES = Arrays.asList(new Example("01/01/2014", "10:00", "300"));
grid.setRowCount(EXAMPLES.size(), true);
grid.setRowData(0, EXAMPLES);
..
}
It returns this error:
The method setRowData(int, List<? extends String>) in the type AbstractHasData<String> is not applicable for the arguments (int, List<Example>)
And it suggests : Change type of EXAMPLES to List<? extends String> but it doesn't work anyway.
Have you tried this:
DataGrid<String> grid = new DataGrid<String>();
grid.setPageSize(4);
TextColumn<String> date = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object.split(';')[0];
}
};
grid.addColumn(date, "Date");
TextColumn<String> time = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object.split(';')[1];
}
};
grid.addColumn(time, "Time");
TextColumn<String> number = new TextColumn<String>() {
public String getValue(String object) {
return object.split(';')[2];
}
};
grid.addColumn(number, "Number");
A nicer approach would be to create a new Java Bean for your rows and convert your String[] items to a List<Row> of the new row objects
You can use String[] in your code:
DataGrid<String> grid = new DataGrid<String>();
TextColumn<String[]> date = new TextColumn<String[]>() {
public String getValue(String[] object) {
return object[0];
}
};
Split your strings when you add them:
private ListDataProvider<String[]> dataProvider = new ListDataProvider<String[]>();
private List<String[]> displayItems = dataProvider.getList();
...
for (String textString : textStrings) {
displayItems.add(textString.split(";");
}
I would do it like this, if size of you data is not huge.
Create a class
Class YourClass{
private String date, time, number;
public YourClass(String date, String time, String nuber){
this.date=date;
this.time=time;
this.number=number;
}
//getters and setters here
}
Create a method to conver you values
private List<YourObject> convert(String[] values){
List<YourClass> data= new ArrayList<YourClass>();
String date, time, number;
for(i=0; values.size(); i++){
values[i] //split the string and asign values to date, time and number
dataList.add(new YourClass(date, time, number));
}
return dataList;
}
Add you values to DataGrid
ListDataProvider<YourClass> provider= new ListDataProvider<YourClass>();
List<YourClass> dataList = new ArrayList<YourClass>();
dataList.addAll(convert(textString[]));
provider.addDataDisplay(grid);
provider.setList(dataList);
Then in your Columns just:
return object.getDate();
return object.getTime();
return object.getNumber();
I have a table with has the columns namely
recordID, recordName , titleFeild, titleIDMap, titleId, titleStartDate, titleEndDate, languageId
Now I have convert the data from above columns to the JSON object data which looks like below
{
"recordId" :10,
"recordName" : "RECORDS",
"records" : [ {
"titleField" : 1,
"titleIDMap" : null,
"titleId" : 500,
"titleStartDate" : "2013-12-22T00:00:00.000+0000",
"titleEndDate" : "2013-12-03T00:00:00.000+0000",
"languageId" : 20
}]
}
Please note that records is an array of columns ( titleFeild,titleIDMap,titleId,titleStartDate,titleEndDate,languageId)
The code so far I have developed is
List<Object[]> objList = dao.getStatus();
Integer result = null;
JSONObject jsonData = new JSONObject();
JSONArray jsonDataArray = new JSONArray();
if(objList!=null && objList.size()>10000)
{
for (Object[] nameObj : objList) {
jsonData.put("", nameObj.get(arg0) );
}
}
How do I construct the JSON Object from the columns data ?
You can easily achieve this with google-gson library. In simple terms you would have to create a couple of Pojos (with reference to another containin a list of references).
Consider RecordID and RecordName as Meta Data.
Create a pojo representing this information:
public class DbMetaPojo {
private int recordID;
private String recordName;
private List<Record> records;
public List<Record> getRecords() {
return records;
}
public void setRecords(List<Record> records) {
this.records = records;
}
public String getRecordName() {
return recordName;
}
public void setRecordName(String recordName) {
this.recordName = recordName;
}
public int getRecordID() {
return recordID;
}
public void setRecordID(int recordID) {
this.recordID = recordID;
}
}
Create another pojo with the actual Record fields:
public class Record {
public int getTitleFeild() {
return titleFeild;
}
public void setTitleFeild(int i) {
this.titleFeild = i;
}
public String getTitleIDMap() {
return titleIDMap;
}
public void setTitleIDMap(String titleIDMap) {
this.titleIDMap = titleIDMap;
}
public int getTitleId() {
return titleId;
}
public void setTitleId(int titleId) {
this.titleId = titleId;
}
public String getTitleStartDate() {
return titleStartDate;
}
public void setTitleStartDate(String titleStartDate) {
this.titleStartDate = titleStartDate;
}
public String getTitleEndDate() {
return titleEndDate;
}
public void setTitleEndDate(String titleEndDate) {
this.titleEndDate = titleEndDate;
}
public int getLanguageId() {
return languageId;
}
public void setLanguageId(int languageId) {
this.languageId = languageId;
}
private int titleFeild;
private String titleIDMap;
private int titleId;
private String titleStartDate;
private String titleEndDate;
private int languageId;
}
Now just a method to populate your POJOs with the relevant data (replace the hardcoding logic with your data retrieve):
public static void main(String... main) {
DbMetaPojo obj = new DbMetaPojo();
obj.setRecordID(10);
obj.setRecordName("RECORDS");
Record record = new Record();
record.setLanguageId(20);
record.setTitleEndDate("2013-12-22T00:00:00.000+0000");
record.setTitleFeild(1);
record.setTitleId(500);
record.setTitleIDMap("SOME NULL");
record.setTitleStartDate("2013-12-22T00:00:00.000+0000");
List<Record> list = new ArrayList<Record>();
list.add(record);
obj.setRecords(list);
Gson gson = new Gson();
String json = gson.toJson(obj);
System.out.println(json);
}
Output is your formed JSON:
{
"recordID": 10,
"recordName": "RECORDS",
"records": [
{
"titleFeild": 1,
"titleIDMap": "SOME NULL",
"titleId": 500,
"titleStartDate": "2013-12-22T00:00:00.000+0000",
"titleEndDate": "2013-12-22T00:00:00.000+0000",
"languageId": 20
}
]
}
EDIT:
To align to your code, you might want to do something like:
List<Object> objList = dao.getStatus();
List<DbMetaPojo> metaList = new ArrayList<DbMetaPojo> ();
if (objList != null && objList.size() > 10000) {
for (Object nameObj : objList) {
DbMetaPojo meta = new DbMetaPojo();
meta.setRecordID(nameObj[0]);
meta.setRecordName(nameObj[0]);
...
...
...
metaList.add(meta);
}
}
First of all what you have to do is retrieve the data from the columns of the table using your DAO and calling a Function from DAOIMPL which in turn will return the list of data(POJO probably).
Create a map like this which will contain your key value pair for example recordid and value,
recordname and value
Map<String,Object> objMap = new HashMap<String,Object>();
objMap.put("recordId", Record.getId());
objMap.put("recordName",Record.getName());
// Now here is the deal create another hashmap here whose key will be records "the key for your second array"
//Put the values in this second hashmap as instructed above and put it as a key value pair.
........
.......
.......
JSONObject JsonObject = JSONObject.fromObject(objMap);//This will create JSON object out of your hashmap.
objJSONList.add(JsonObject);
}
StringBuffer jsonBuffer = new StringBuffer();
jsonBuffer.append("{\"data\": {");
jsonBuffer.append(objJSONList.tostring());
jsonBuffer.append("}");
//jsonBuffer.append(",\"total\":"+ objJSONList.size());// TOTAL Optional
//jsonBuffer.append(",\"success\":true}");//SUCCESS message if using in callback Optional
Create an object which has your attribues. (recordID, recordName , titleFeild, titleIDMap, titleId, titleStartDate, titleEndDate, languageId)
Get data from dao and convert it to json. It will looks like what you want.
Gson gson = new Gson();
// convert java object to JSON format,
// and returned as JSON formatted string
String json = gson.toJson(obj);
I think your dao.getStatus() should return a List with Map keys and values. Your key would be column name and value would be content.
List<Map<String,Object>> objList = dao.getStatus();
if(objList!=null && objList.size()>10000){
for(Map<String,Object> row : objList) {
Iterator<String> keyList = row.keySet().iterator();
while(keyList.hasNext()){
String key = keyList.next();
jsonData.put(key, row.get(key));
}
}
}
For the records array you need to build it while iterating table columns.
Combining above code with building records array would be something like this..
String[] group = {"titleField","titleIDMap","titleId","titleStartDate","titleEndDate","languageId"};
List<String> recordGroup = Arrays.asList(group);
Map<Object, JSONArray> records = new HashMap<Object,JSONArray>();
List<Map<String,Object>> objList = dao.getStatus();
JSONObject jsonData = new JSONObject();
if(objList!=null && objList.size()>10000){
for(Map<String,Object> row : objList) {
int columnCount = 0;
Iterator<String> keyList = row.keySet().iterator();
while(keyList.hasNext()){
String key = keyList.next();
if(recordGroup.contains(key)){
Object recordId = row.get("recordId");
JSONArray recordArray = new JSONArray();
if(records.containsKey(recordId)){
recordArray = records.get(recordId);
JSONObject jsonObj = null;
if(columnCount >= recordGroup.size()){
jsonObj = new JSONObject();
recordarray.add(jsonObj);
columnCount = 0;
}
else {
jsonObj = (JSONObject) recordArray.get(recordArray.size()-1);
}
jsonObj.put(key, row.get(key));
columnCount++;
}
else {
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject();
jsonObj.put(key, row.get(key));
recordArray.add(jsonObj);
records.put(recordId, recordArray);
}
jsonData.put("records", records.get(recordId));
}
else {
jsonData.put(key, row.get(key));
}
}
}
}
