Class ExtensionModelJsonSerializer

java.lang.Object

org.mule.runtime.extension.api.persistence.ExtensionModelJsonSerializer

public class ExtensionModelJsonSerializer
extends Object

Serializer that can convert a ExtensionModel into a readable and processable JSON representation and from a JSON String to an ExtensionModel instance

Considerations:

• Only ModelPropertys that are considered as externalizable, the ones that ModelProperty.isPublic() returns true, will be serialized
• Due to the nature of ModelProperty, that can be dynamically attached to any EnrichableModel, only the already know set of ModelProperty will be tagged with a friendly name, example: LayoutModel is going to be identified with the display name. Otherwise, the ModelProperty will be serialized tagging it with the full qualifier name of the class.
• When deserializing ModelPropertys, their full qualified name will be used, if the class is not found in the ClassLoader the ModelProperty object will be discarded
