higgs.msg's Introduction

Higgs Binary Message

The name shamelessly stolen from the almost mythical Higgs Boson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_boson .

Higgs - the name of the library
Boson - the name of a custom binary protocol

Enables de/serialisation of objects to a series of bytes. Also supports Jackson's JSON tree enabling serialisation of Jackson objects.

Importantly, it supports recursive objects by having support for references. This means there are JSON object trees Jackson will fail to serialise failing with StackoverflowError by Boson will serialise it just fine. See boson

Deployment

See https://central.sonatype.org/pages/apache-maven.html

To deploy snapshot run: mvn clean deploy then trigger a release mvn nexus-staging:release or drop mvn nexus-staging:drop

higgs.msg's Issues

Add support for de-serialisation of classes without a no-arg constr.

Look at using https://github.com/paul-hammant/paranamer, https://stackoverflow.com/a/20594685/400048 or both.

Could simply match ctor arg names to JSON field names. Anything left over gets populated in usual way via field after construction

Add support for JDK Temporal and Joda date types

Add support for BigInteger and BigDecimal (de)serialisation

JVM javadoc mess

Can't do releases without javadoc.
Javadoc currently doesn't build on any JDK version available via sdkan.
Tried 11.0.2, 12.0.2, 13.0.1 and 15.ea.2!

See https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8212233 and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-555

Seriously what're these guys doing!
Last resort, go to JDK 9.0.3 -
The SSL cert for oss.sonatype.org is not accepted on J9!
Add it https://stackoverflow.com/a/36427118/400048

Download root cert from chrome
keytool -import -alias example -keystore ~/.sdkman/candidates/java/9.0.4-open/lib/security/cacerts -file ~/Downloads/rootca1.cer

So...switch to Go lang or Rust for a few years until Oracle settles down???? Sigh
