JarCastingjsonbuilder for Kotlin
jsonbuilder is a small artifact that serves a single purpose: It allows to create json using an idiomatic kotlin builder DSL.
Example
val myJson = json {
"size" to 0
"array" to arrayOf(1,2,3)
"aggs" to {
"num_destinations" to {
"cardinality" to {
"field" to "DestCountry"
}
}
}
}
which will result in the following json structure:
{
"size": 0,
"array": [
1,
2,
3
],
"aggs": {
"num_destinations": {
"cardinality": {
"field": "DestCountry"
}
}
}
}
Both arrays and nested elements are supported without additional functions/constructs.
