Initializer is Java library that can be used to dynamically initialize object attributes.
It's about typical task to initialize some objects based on strings from, for example, configuration files.
- all primitive and simple types, StringBuffer, StringBuilder, BigDecimal, BigInteger,
- date/time: java.util.Date, java.util.Calendar, java.time.LocalDate, java.time.LocalDateTime, java.time.ZonedDateTime, java.time.Instant
- one-dimensional arrays of any type which described above
- Collections with generic of any types which described above
- Maps with generic of any types which described above as key or value
- recursive beans initialization -> @InitBean
- customizing date/time patterns
- requirements policies
- thread safe
- naming -> @InitPropertyName
- initialization by environment variables -> @InitEnvVariable
- extendable for support new types, and new type will work with array, beans and coollection
- Check unit tests - a lot of examples there
Let say we have the class:
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Map;
import net.cactusthorn.initializer.annotations.*;
import static net.cactusthorn.initializer.annotations.InitPropertyPolicy.*;
/*
* All what need to do is mark attributes with @InitProperty or @InitPropertyName annotations. That is all.
*/
public class MyClass {
@InitPropertyName("check") private boolean isAvailable;
@InitProperty private BigInteger[] values;
@InitProperty(OPTIONAL) private Map<String,java.util.Date> dates;
@Override
public String toString() {
return dates.toString() + " <-> " + isAvailable + " <-> " + Arrays.asList(values).toString();
}
}Now Lets initialize it:
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import net.cactusthorn.initializer.Initializer;
import net.cactusthorn.initializer.properties.InitProperties;
import net.cactusthorn.initializer.properties.InitPropertiesBuilder;
public class MyInit {
public static void main(String... args) {
Map<String,String> prop = new HashMap<>();
prop.put("check", "true");
prop.put("values", "1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000, 7406529596973765");
prop.put("dates", "first=2017-09-17T11:16:50+01:00 , second=2017-10-05 , third=2017-09-17T11:16:50");
MyClass myClass = new MyClass();
InitProperties props = new InitPropertiesBuilder().setValuesSeparator(',').trimMultiValues(true).from(prop).build();
new Initializer().initialize(props, myClass);
System.out.println(myClass.toString());
}
}Properties:
