Macrooom

Macrooom is an object-object mapper library.

Developers need sometimes similar but different classes depending a purpose. Macrooom makes it easy to convert one object to another. It generates the code with Scala macro.

Current features:

• Mapping between Scala classes
• Mapping between Java and Scala classes.

Not Supported:

• Nested classes

Setup

Just add Macrooom to your sbt build settings:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "com.github.h-kishi" %% "macrooom" % "0.2.0"
)

Usage

case class SourceClass(id: Int, name: String) 

class TargetClass {
  private String name;
  

  public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; }
  public String getName() { return name; }
}

import macrooom._

// Convert from Scala object to Java object
def convert(src: SourceClass) = ObjectMapper.convertTo[SourceClass, TargetClass](src)

val source = SourceClass(1, "ScalaToJava")
val target = convert(source)

Generated code

Scala to Scala

Scala class is instantiated based on the primary constructor.

Here is an example source class:

class SourceClass(val id: Int, val name: String)

Here is an example target case class:

case class TargetClass(id: Int, name: String)

Here is generated by the macro:

// def convert(source: SourceClass) = ObjectMapper.convertTo[SourceClass, TargetClass](source)
def convert(source: SourceClass): TargetClass = new TargetClass(
  id = source.id
  name = source.name
)

Scala to Java

Java class is instantiated with default constructor and initialized using the accessors.

Here is an example source class:

case class SourceClass(val id: Int, val name: String)

Here is an example target case class:

class TargetClass {
  private int id;
  private String name;
  
  public void setId(int id) { id = id; }
  public int getName() { return id; }
  public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; }
  public String getName() { return name; }
}

Here is generated by the macro:

// def convert(source: SourceClass) = ObjectMapper.convertTo[SourceClass, TargetClass](source)
def convert(source: SourceClass): TargetClass = new TargetClass {
  setId(source.id)
  setName(source.name)
}
