Summary

Introduction

TS-Serializer Core is a library to manage serialization and deserialization in a Typescript program. It use decorator to configure serialization and deserialization.

Installation

For installing core in Typescript Project with NPM, just run this command :

npm i ts-serializer-core

How to use

Serializer

To use the serializer, you just have to instantiate an object of type Serializer.

import {Serializer} from 'ts-serializer-core';
 
const serializer: Serializer = new Serialize();
...

The serializer accept two arguments :

Argument Type Required Description
serializerConfiguration SerializerConfiguration False The serializer configuration is use to configure the serializer

Deserializer

To use the deserializer, you just have to instantiate an object of type Deserializer.

import {Deserializer} from 'ts-deserializer-core';
 
const deserializer: Deserializer = new Deserialize();
...

The deserializer accept one argument :

Argument Type Required Description
deserializerConfiguration DeserializerConfiguration False The deserializer configuration is use to configure the deserializer

Serialization/Deserialization configuration

In this example, we configure models with simple and complex object/array type :

import {JsonProperty} from 'ts-deserializer-core';
 
export class User {
 
    @JsonProperty('identifier')
    public id: number;
 
    @JsonProperty('lastName')
    public lastName: string;
 
    @JsonProperty('firstName')
    public firstName: string;
}
 
export class Hero extends User {
 
    @JsonProperty({name: 'weapons', type: Weapon})
    public weapons: Weapon[];
 
    @JsonProperty({name: 'animal', type: Animal})
    public animal: Animal;
 
    @JsonProperty('tags')
    public tags: string[];
}
 
export class Animal {
 
    @JsonProperty('id')
    public id: number;
 
    @JsonProperty('name')
    public name: string;
 
    public pv: number;
}
 
export class Weapon {
 
    @JsonProperty('id')
    public id: number;
 
    @JsonProperty('name')
    public name: string;
}

To use this configuration, we can run this code example :

const hero: Hero = new Hero();
hero.id = 1;
hero.firstName = 'Thomas';
hero.lastName = 'Nisole';
hero.nickName = 'Tom';
hero.animal = new Animal();
hero.animal.id = 2;
hero.animal.name = 'Patrick';
hero.animal.pv = 51;
hero.tags = ['tag1', 'tag2'];
 
const weapon1 = new Weapon();
weapon1.id = 3;
weapon1.name = 'Sword';
 
const weapon2 = new Weapon();
weapon2.id = 4;
weapon2.name = 'shield';
 
hero.weapons = [weapon1, weapon2];
 
const serializer: Serializer = new Serializer(serializerConfiguration);
console.log(serializer.serialize(hero));

The result is :

{
    "identifier": 1,
    "firstName": "Thomas",
    "lastName": "Nisole",
    "animal": { "id": 2, "name": "Patrick" },
    "tags": [ "tag1", "tag2" ],
    "weapons": [
        {
            "id": 3,
            "name": "Sword"
        },
        {
            "id": 4,
            "name": "shield"
        }
    ]
}
