edn-java is a library to parse (read) and print (write) edn.
This is a Maven project with the following coordinates:
<dependency>
<groupId>us.bpsm</groupId>
<artifactId>edn-java</artifactId>
<version>0.7.1</version>
</dependency>It is available through the OSS Sonatype Releases repository:
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases
or the Gradle coordinates:
compile 'us.bpsm:edn-java:0.7.1'You'll need to create a Parser and supply it with some input. Factory methods to create Parseable input are provided which accept either a java.lang.CharSequence or a java.lang.Readable. You can then call nextValue() on the Parser to get values form the input. When the input is exhausted, nextValue() will return Parser.END_OF_INPUT.

}Most edn values map to regular Java types, except in such cases where Java doesn't provide something suitable. Implementations of the types peculiar to edn are provided by the package us.bpsm.edn.
Symbol and Keyword have an optional prefix and a mandatory name. Both implement the interface Named.
Integers map to, Long or BigInteger depending on the magnitude of the number. Appending N to an integer literal maps to BigInteger irrespective of the magnitude.
Floating point numbers with the suffix M are mapped to BigDecimal. All others are mapped to Double.
Characters are mapped to Character, booleans to Boolean and strings to String. No great shock there, I trust.
Lists "(...)" and vectors "[...]" are both mapped to implementations of java.util.List. A vector maps to a List implementation that also implements the marker interface java.util.RandomAccess.
Maps map to java.util.HashMap and sets to java.util.HashSet.
The parser is provided a configuration when created:
Parsers.newParser(Parsers.defaultConfiguration())
The parser can be customized to use different collection classes by first building the appropriate Parser.Config:
package us.bpsm.edn.examples;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import static us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parsers.newParseable;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.SortedSet;
import java.util.TreeSet;
import org.junit.Test;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.CollectionBuilder;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parseable;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parser;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parsers;
public class SimpleParserConfigTest {
@Test
public void test() throws IOException {
Parser.Config cfg =
Parsers.newParserConfigBuilder().setSetFactory(
new CollectionBuilder.Factory() {
public CollectionBuilder builder() {
return new CollectionBuilder() {
SortedSet<Object> s = new TreeSet<Object>();
public void add(Object o) {
if (!s.add(o)) {
throw new EdnSyntaxException(
"Set contains duplicate element '" o "'."
);
}
}
public Object build() { return s; }
};
}
}).build();
Parseable pbr = newParseable("#{1 0 2 9 3 8 4 7 5 6}");
Parser p = Parsers.newParser(cfg);
SortedSet<?> s = (SortedSet<?>) p.nextValue(pbr);
// The elements of s are sorted since our SetFactory
// builds a SortedSet, not a (Hash)Set.
assertEquals(Arrays.asList(0L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 7L, 8L, 9L),
new ArrayList<Object>(s));
}
}By default, handlers are provided automatically for #inst and #uuid, which return a java.util.Date and a java.util.UUID respectively. Tagged values with an unrecognized tag are mapped to us.bpsm.edn.TaggedValue.
The package us.bpsm.edn.parser makes three handlers for #inst available:
-
InstantToDateis the default and converts each#instto ajava.util.Date. -
InstantToCalendarconverts each#instto ajava.util.Calendar, which preserves the original GTM offset. -
InstantToTimestampconverts each#instto ajava.sql.Timstamp, which preserves nanoseconds.
Extend AbstractInstantHandler to provide your own implementation of #inst.
Use custom handlers may by building an appropriate Parser.Config:
package us.bpsm.edn.examples;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URI;
import java.net.URISyntaxException;
import org.junit.Test;
import us.bpsm.edn.Tag;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parseable;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parser;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parsers;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.TagHandler;
public class CustomTagHandler {
@Test
public void test() throws IOException, URISyntaxException {
Parser.Config cfg =
Parsers.newParserConfigBuilder()
.putTagHandler(Tag.newTag("us.bpsm", "uri"),
new TagHandler() {
public Object transform(Tag tag, Object value) {
return URI.create((String) value);
}
}).build();
Parser p = Parsers.newParser(cfg);
Parseable pbr = Parsers.newParseable(
"#us.bpsm/uri \"http://example.com\"");
assertEquals(new URI("http://example.com"), p.nextValue(pbr));
}
}By default, integers not marked as arbitrary precision by the suffix "N" will parse as java.lang.Long. This can be influenced by installing handlers for the tag named by the constant Parser.Config.LONG_TAG.
package us.bpsm.edn.examples;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.math.BigInteger;
import org.junit.Test;
import us.bpsm.edn.Tag;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parseable;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parser;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.Parsers;
import us.bpsm.edn.parser.TagHandler;
public class CustomLongHandler {
@Test
public void test() throws IOException {
Parser.Config cfg =
Parsers.newParserConfigBuilder()
.putTagHandler(Parser.Config.LONG_TAG, new TagHandler() {
public Object transform(Tag tag, Object value) {
long n = (Long) value;
if (Integer.MIN_VALUE <= n && n <= Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
return Integer.valueOf((int) n);
} else {
return BigInteger.valueOf(n);
}
}
}).build();
Parser p = Parsers.newParser(cfg);
Parseable pbr = Parsers.newParseable("1024, 2147483648");
assertEquals(1024, p.nextValue(pbr));
assertEquals(BigInteger.valueOf(2147483648L), p.nextValue(pbr));
}
}Parser also provides BIG_DECIMAL_TAG, DOUBLE_TAG and BIG_INTEGER_TAG to cover customizing all varieties of numbers.
The package us.bpsm.edn.printer provides an extensible printer for converting java data structures to valid edn text. The default configuration can print values of the following types, as well as Java's null, which prints as nil:
us.bpsm.edn.Keywordus.bpsm.edn.Symbolus.bpsm.edn.TaggedValuejava.lang.Booleanjava.lang.Byte-
java.lang.CharSequence, which includesjava.lang.String. java.lang.Characterjava.lang.Doublejava.lang.Floatjava.lang.Integerjava.lang.Longjava.lang.Shortjava.math.BigIntegerjava.meth.BigDecimal-
java.sql.Timestamp, as#inst. -
java.util.Date, as#inst. -
java.util.GregorianCalendar, as#inst. -
java.util.List, as[...]or(...). java.util.Mapjava.util.Set-
java.util.UUID, as#uuid.
The Printer writes characters to the underlying Writer. To serialize this text to a file or across a network you'll need to arrange to convert the characters to bytes. Use UTF-8, as edn specifies.
The default Printer renders values as compactly as possible, which is beneficial when edn is used for communication. The pretty printer renders values for readability, which is beneficial for debugging and storage in version control.
package us.bpsm.edn.examples;
import org.hamcrest.CoreMatchers;
import org.junit.Assert;

static {
Parser parser = Parsers.newParser(Parsers.defaultConfiguration());
VALUE_TO_PRINT = parser.nextValue(Parsers.newParseable(
"{:a [1 2 3],\n"
" [x/y] 3.14159}\n"));
}
static final List<String> ACCEPTABLE_COMPACT_RENDERINGS = Arrays.asList(
"{:a[1 2 3][x/y]3.14159}",
"{[x/y]3.14159 :a[1 2 3]}"
);
static final List<String> ACCEPTABLE_PRETTY_RENDERINGS = Arrays.asList(
"{" "\n"
" :a [" "\n"
" 1" "\n"
" 2" "\n"
" 3" "\n"
" ]" "\n"
" [" "\n"
" x/y" "\n"
" ] 3.14159" "\n"
"}",
"{" "\n"
" [" "\n"
" x/y" "\n"
" ] 3.14159" "\n"
" :a [" "\n"
" 1" "\n"
" 2" "\n"
" 3" "\n"
" ]" "\n"
"}"
);
}To support additional types, you'll need to provide a Protocol<Printer.Fn<?>> to the Printer which binds your custom Printer.Fn implementations to the class (or interface) it is responsible for.
As an example, we'll add printing support for URIs:
package us.bpsm.edn.examples;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.net.URI;
import org.junit.Test;
import us.bpsm.edn.Tag;
import us.bpsm.edn.printer.Printer;
import us.bpsm.edn.printer.Printer.Fn;
import us.bpsm.edn.printer.Printers;
import us.bpsm.edn.protocols.Protocol;
public class CustomTagPrinter {
private static final Tag BPSM_URI = Tag.newTag("us.bpsm", "uri");
@Test
public void test() throws IOException {
Protocol<Fn<?>> fns = Printers.defaultProtocolBuilder()
.put(URI.class, new Printer.Fn<URI>() {
@Override
public void eval(URI self, Printer writer) {
writer.printValue(BPSM_URI).printValue(self.toString());
}})
.build();
StringWriter w = new StringWriter();
Printer p = Printers.newPrinter(fns, w);
p.printValue(URI.create("http://example.com"));
p.close();
assertEquals("#us.bpsm/uri\"http://example.com\"", w.toString());
}
}- Edn values must be acyclic. Any attempt to print a data structure containing cycles will surely end in a stack overflow.
- The current Printing support strikes me a as a bit of a hack. The API may change with 1.0.0.
- Edn-Java does not provide much by way of "convenience" methods. As a library it's still to young to really know what would be convenient, though I'm open to suggestions.
