POJO2EmberData : POJOS To Ember Data Models

What does it do ?

This tool converts Java model classes to their Ember Data equivalent. Here is an example :

POJO model

public class User {

    private String firstName;

    private String lastName;

    private User manager;

    private String email;

    private Date birthDate;

    private Boolean active;

    @JsonIgnore
    private String password;
    
    @JsonBackReference
    private Group group;
    
}

Ember Data model

App.User = DS.Model.extend({
	firstName: DS.attr('string'),
	lastName: DS.attr('string'),
	manager: DS.belongsTo('user'),
	email: DS.attr('string'),
	birthDate: DS.attr('date'),
	active: DS.attr('boolean')
});

As you can see in the example, Jackson Annotations are supported out of the box.

Config config = new Config(packagesToScan, emberModelNamespace);
POJO2EmberData converter = new POJO2EmberData(config);
converter.convert(); // Your models will be generated in the generated_models dir
