= JSON-B Configuration

This examples shows how to customize jsonb for a JAX-RS Application.
JSONB is the new javaee-api:8.0 standard for json
serialization/deserialization. Few annotations are needed and
JsonbConfig offers many configurations.

== Run and test Endpoint

the application can be run with `mvn clean install tomee:run' if port
8080 is available you can invoke the following endpoint: (GET)
http://localhost:8080/jsonb-configuration/api/users that should respond
with the following json:

[source,java]
----
[
   {
      "Id":1,
      "Name":"user 1",
      "Registration":"2018-12-28"
   },
   {
      "Id":2,
      "Name":"user 2",
      "Registration":"2018-12-28"
   }
]
----

== @ApplicationPath

JAXRS entry point class, as follows jaxrs will load all the annotated
@Path classes and methods without specifying them.

[source,java]
----
import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;

@ApplicationPath("api")
public class JAXRSApplication extends Application {

}
----

== @Path Rest resource

Simple jaxrs class with a GET endpoint

[source,java]
----
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;

import org.superbiz.model.User;

@Path("users")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Stateless
public class UserService {

    @GET
    public List<User> users() {
        List<User> users = new ArrayList<>();
        User user1 = new User(1, "user 1");
        User user2 = new User(2, "user 2");
        users.add(user1);
        users.add(user2);

        return users;
    }
}
----

== JSONB Configuration

Implementing ContextResolver<> you can customize jaxrs defaults, in this
example we are going to customize JSONB serialization/deserialization

[source,java]
----
import javax.json.bind.Jsonb;
import javax.json.bind.JsonbBuilder;
import javax.json.bind.JsonbConfig;
import javax.json.bind.config.PropertyNamingStrategy;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.ContextResolver;
import javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider;

@Provider
public class JSONBConfiguration implements ContextResolver<Jsonb> {

    private Jsonb jsonb;

    public JSONBConfiguration() {
        // jsonbConfig offers a lot of configurations.
        JsonbConfig config = new JsonbConfig().withFormatting(true)
                .withPropertyNamingStrategy(PropertyNamingStrategy.UPPER_CAMEL_CASE)
                .withDateFormat("yyyy - MM - dd", Locale.ENGLISH);

        jsonb = JsonbBuilder.create(config);
    }

    @Override
    public Jsonb getContext(Class<?> type) {
        return jsonb;
    }

}
----

JsonbConfig offers many configurations.

== Accessing the rest endpoint

The test spin up an openejb webapp and invoke the users endpoint

[source,java]
----
import java.io.IOException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;

import org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.client.WebClient;
import org.apache.openejb.jee.WebApp;
import org.apache.openejb.junit.ApplicationComposer;
import org.apache.openejb.testing.Classes;
import org.apache.openejb.testing.EnableServices;
import org.apache.openejb.testing.Module;
import org.junit.Assert;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.superbiz.JAXRSApplication;
import org.superbiz.JSONBConfiguration;

@EnableServices(value = "jaxrs")
@RunWith(ApplicationComposer.class)
public class UserServiceTest {

    @Module
    @Classes({ UserService.class, JAXRSApplication.class, JSONBConfiguration.class })
    public WebApp app() {
        return new WebApp().contextRoot("test");
    }

    @Test
    public void get() throws IOException {
        final String message = WebClient.create("http://localhost:4204").path("/test/api/users").get(String.class);
        System.out.println(message);

        final SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy - MM - dd");

        // test withDateFormat("yyyy - MM - dd")
        Assert.assertTrue(message.contains(sdf.format(new Date())));
        // test withFormatting(true)
        Assert.assertTrue(message.contains(System.getProperty("line.separator")));
    }

}
----

== Running

Running the example can be done from maven with a simple `mvn clean
install' command run from the `jsonb-configuration' directory.

When run you should see output similar to the following.

=== Inside the jar

javaee-api:8.0 brings in all the dependencies needed to spin up a
working REST application.

If we look at the jar built by maven, we’ll see the application itself
is quite small:

This single jar could be deployed any any compliant Java EE
implementation. In TomEE you’d simply place it in the
`tomee.home/webapps/` directory.
