Synopsis

Jinx JSON enables JSON serialization for Jinx resources.

Installing

Jinx JSON is installed as a JRuby gem:

[sudo] jgem install jinx-json

Usage

Enable Jinx for a Java package, as described in the Jinx Usage.

require 'jinx/json'
jsoned = jinxed.to_json #=> the JSON representation of a jinxed resource
JSON[jsoned] #=> the deserialized jinxed resource
JSON

The JSON payload consists of the following:

• The standard primitive Java properties, e.g. caTissue SpecimenCollectionGroup.surgicalPathologyNumber. If there is a Java id property, then designate that property with identifier, since id is a reserved Ruby method.

• An object identifier property object_id which uniquely identifies the object in the scope of the JSON object graph.

• The standard Jinx Resource reference properties, e.g. caTissue TissueSpecimen.specimenCollectionGroup. If the referenced object content contains the object_id property, then the reference resolves to the object defined in the JSON object graph with that object_id value.
