Converting to JSON

Technical (archive)

Hi,

First of all I would like to say Hello since this is my first post on the mailing list.

Second, my questions:

I’m trying to do a implementation of OpenEHR in Java with the persistence layer in JSON.

I’ve searched the web but all the implementations/libraries I find use XML to store and the openEHR java-libs to process the ADL files.

My application would try to follow the REST/JSON API in https://www.ehrscape.com/ and since the persistence is also made in JSON, I think it’s an expensive overhead to convert from JSON->XML-> AOM → validate → XML->JSON-> database.

If I follow the java-libs way but use JSON at both ends ( storage and REST API ) I would have to convert back to XML or AOM to validate the structure with the java-libs.

I’m I missing something here or is just a bad idea to do persistence in JSON?

Hope my doubts actually make sense and you can give me some guidance.

Best,

Duarte Ferreira

I realize that this is the wrong mailing list for this question.

Sorry for the trouble.

I have made a proof-of-concept of a JSON-Schema generation from ADL in
order to validate JSON instances. I have also read about several
projects to generate other artifacts from JSON-Schema.
