XML->JSON->HashMap

Yes, it is long time since i posted…

Was just trying to see how a XML can be converted to JSON and to HashMap.

The situation is very imaginary.

 

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

import net.sf.json.JSON;
import net.sf.json.xml.XMLSerializer;

import org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils;
import org.codehaus.jackson.JsonGenerationException;
import org.codehaus.jackson.map.JsonMappingException;
import org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper;
import org.codehaus.jackson.type.TypeReference;

public class XML2JSONConvertor {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

InputStream is = new FileInputStream(new File(
“e:\\jagannathan\\personal\\java-projects\\secondtest.xml”));
String xml = IOUtils.toString(is);

XMLSerializer xmlSerializer = new XMLSerializer();
JSON json = xmlSerializer.read(xml);

System.out.println(json.toString(2));

printJSON(json.toString(2));

}

public static void printJSON(String jsonString) {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();

try {

Map<String, Object> jsonInMap = mapper.readValue(jsonString,
new TypeReference<Map<String, Object>>() {
});

List<String> keys = new ArrayList<String>(jsonInMap.keySet());

for (String key : keys) {
System.out.println(key + “: ” + jsonInMap.get(key));
}

} catch (JsonGenerationException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (JsonMappingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

The Input XML

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<company>
<name>Jags Inc</name>
<employees>
<employee>
<name>Jagan</name>
<sex>Male</sex>
<dob>24-jul</dob>
</employee>
<employee>
<name>Satya</name>
<sex>Male</sex>
<dob>24-apr</dob>
</employee>
</employees>
</company>

 

The output

7 Feb, 2013 7:20:50 PM net.sf.json.xml.XMLSerializer getType
INFO: Using default type string
{
“name”: “Jags Inc”,
“employees”: [
{

}

employees: [{name=Jagan, sex=Male, dob=24-jul}, {name=Satya, sex=Male, dob=24-apr}]
