Boxer

Annotation based serialization library for Java and Android frameworks, by generating boilerplate code.

  • Define classes as serializable with the @Box annotation.
  • By default all fields will be serialized, except fields with the transient modifier
  • the @Wrap annotation will wrap a List fields into the appropriate Subclass. (Subclass needs to have a no-args constructor)
  • Default non-class serialization possible
@Box public class Example {

private int height;
  private transient int width;
  public double weight;

 @Wrap(Stack.class)
  public List<Example> stack;

//Empty constructor for Injection
  public Example(){

}

//Getters and Setters for private fields 
}

Retrieving a Boxer instance, and serializing and de-serializing your data.

Example using the Bundle class:

public class ExampleActivity extends Activity {

@Override
  public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {

super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);

 Boxer boxer = Boxer.from(outState);

boxer.add("Example", new Example());

  
}

@Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

 Boxer boxer = Boxer.from(savedInstanceState);

boxer.get("Example", Example.class);

  
}
 
}

To register your own Boxer wrapper for a specific class:

//Registering a wrapper class for a specific Target class Boxer.registerWrapper(Wrapper.class, Target.class);
  //Removing a wrapper for a specific wrapper class Boxer.removeWrapper(Wrapper.class);
  //Removing a wrapper for a target class Boxer.removeWrapperForType(Target.class);
  //Clearing all the wrappers Boxer.clearWrappers();

TypeAdapters define how an non-Boxable class should be serialized and deserialized. TypeAdapter will need to be registered with the @Adapter annotation. The type parameter of the TypeAdapter should be the class you want to serialize / deserialize.

@Adapter public class DateTypeAdapter extends TypeAdapter<Date> {

private static final String TIME_KEY = "time_key";

@Override
  public void serialize(Boxer<?> boxer, Date object) {

boxer.addLong(TIME_KEY, object.getTime());

  
}

@Override
  public Date deserialize (Boxer<?> boxer) {

return new Date(boxer.getLong(TIME_KEY));

  
}
 
}

@Serialize and @Deserialize are used to annotate methods that will be called after or before serialization or deserialization inside Boxable classes.

Both annotations take an Execution enum as parameter to specify when they will be executed. Default execution behaviour will be after serialization or deserialization.

The method can have a Boxer parameter or be empty.

@Serialize public void serialization(Boxer<?> boxer){
  //Do something 
}
  @Deserialize(Execution.BEFORE) public void deserialization(Boxer<?> boxer){
  //Do something 
}

Current supported supported classes:

  • (Android) Bundle
  • (Android) Parcel
  • (Android) SQLiteDatabase (Experimental)
  • (Java/Android) DataMap
