# [EMF](http://www.eclipse.org/emf) Binding for JSON [](https://ci.eclipse.org/emfcloud/job/eclipse-emfcloud/job/emfjson-jackson/job/master/)
## IMPORTANT
Due to the move to eclipse the bundle name for p2 bundles as well as the groupId and artfactId for Maven changed! Also the package names changed.
---
JSON binding for EMF (Eclipse Modeling Framework) models, that allows serialization and deserialization of EMF Resources in JSON.
This is how a model looks like in JSON format.
```javascript
{
"eClass" : "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EPackage",
"name" : "model",
"nsPrefix" : "model",
"nsURI" : "http://www.example.org/model",
"eClassifiers" : [
{
"eClass" : "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EClass",
"name" : "Library"
}
]
}
```
## Documentation and Support
You can find documentation on our [wiki page](https://github.com/eclipse-emfcloud/emfjson-jackson/wiki).
If you have questions, contact us on our [discussion page](https://github.com/eclipse-emfcloud/emfcloud/discussions).
## Installation
Builds are available for Maven users and Eclipse Plugins users.
### Maven [](https://ci.eclipse.org/emfcloud/job/deploy-emfcloud-emfjson-jackson-m2/)
Add the following dependency to your POM file to use emfjson-jackson.
```xml
org.eclipse.emfcloud
emfjson-jackson
1.3.1
```
You can download the releases from [Maven Central](https://search.maven.org/search?q=org.eclipse.emfcloud%20emfjson) (note that there are currently releases yet)
or use our [Snapshot Repository](https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/eclipse/emfcloud/emfjson-jackson/).
Note: If you want to consume the nightly builds you have to configure the sonatype snapshot repository in your `pom.xml`:
```xml
oss.sonatype.org-snapshot
http://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots
false
true
```
### Eclipse Update Manager [](https://ci.eclipse.org/emfcloud/job/deploy-emfcloud-emfjson-jackson-p2/)

This update site contains the bundle and feature for emfjson-jackson and Jackson.
## Dependencies
* Java 8
* EMF 2.19
* Jackson 2.10
# Development
Development can be done with any Java IDE (Eclipse, IntelliJ, etc...), it does not require any special tooling except Maven.
> The tests require some code to be generated from a [Xcore](http://wiki.eclipse.org/Xcore) model. This generated code is not included in this repository, but
is generated when the sources are first build locally, see next section for details.
## Building from sources
If you want to build from sources, you will need the Java 8 runtime installed on your system as well as Maven 3.
First start by cloning this repository.
```
git clone https://github.com/emfjson/emfjson-jackson.git
```
Inside the folder `emfjson-jackson`, run the following maven command to build and install the project locally.
```
mvn clean install
```
This command will call the `xtext:generate` action that will generate the code from the `Xcore` model for the tests.
## Running tests
The tests can be run with the maven command:
```
mvn clean test
```
Or run the class `TestSuite` from your IDE.
