JFXNodeMapper

Build Status

JFXNodeMapper is a simple library that focuses on mapping data from common data represntation formats to JavaFx Nodes. Our main focus is to build a library that,

  • Requires minimal configuration.
  • Easy to understand.
  • Small Size.

Features

  • Automatic Node traversal to find children nodes and assign data to them based on their ids.
  • Accept JSON and ResultSet as data source.
  • Support custom mappings for nodes that has custom datatypes using event listners
  • Supports customised datatype conversions.

Upcoming Features

  • Support for csv and xml.
  • Reverse mapping, i.e convert Nodes to JSON ,CSV and XML,

How to use JFXNodeMapper in your project

  • Add JFXNodeMapper to your project
  • Assign id to nodes same as the Key/Column name
  • (Optional) Assign custom mapping to node
  • Pass the root node or parent node that contains the required fields to be mapped.
  • Pass data source.
  • See the Magic

Examples

  • Mapping from a JSON string
Scene scene = parent.getScene();
Node root = scene.getRoot();
DataMapper mapper = new DataMapper();
mapper.setRoot(root);
String json = getJsonFromServer();
mapper.setDataFromJSON(json); // json keys and node ids should match
  • Mapping from a ResultSet object
Scene scene = parent.getScene();
Node root = scene.getRoot();
DataMapper mapper = new DataMapper();
mapper.setRoot(root);
Resulset resultset = getAllStudentDetails();
mapper.setDataFromResultSet(resultSet); //column name and node ids should match
  • Mapping from JSON string with custom mapping
Scene scene = parent.getScene();
Node root = scene.getRoot();
DataMapper mapper = new DataMapper();
mapper.setRoot(root);
String json = getJsonFromServer();
// this listner will be called whenever the specified id is encountered.
// this will override all other mappings for the specified id
mapper.mapToCustomDataType("subject-combo", (data, id, node) -> {
  ComboBox<String> subs = (ComboBox<String>) node;
  String subject = (String)data;
  subs.getItems.add(subject);
});
mapper.setDataFromJSON(json); // JSON keys and node ids should match
