MongoDB: Register codecs (Java)
You can do Mongo codecs for arrays using ArrayList as follows:
com.example.model.Order
This is the class representing an Order. It includes an ArrayList of items.
package com.example.model;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import org.bson.types.ObjectId;
/**
* Class representing an Order.
*/
public class Order
{
private ObjectId id;
private ArrayList<Item> items;
/**
* Default constructor. Needed for testing.
*/
public Order() {
this.items = new ArrayList<>();
}
/**
* Sets the id of the Order.
* @param id The new id of the Order.
*/
public void setId(ObjectId id) {
this.id = id;
}
/**
* Gets the id of the Order.
* @return The id of the Order.
*/
public ObjectId getId() {
return this.id;
}
/**
* Sets the items for the Order.
* @param items The items for the Order.
*/
public void setItems(ArrayList<Item> items) {
this.items = items;
}
/**
* Gets the items for the Order.
* @return The items for the Order.
*/
public ArrayList<Item> getItems() {
return items;
}
/**
* Adds an item to the Order.
* @param item The new Item to add to the Order.
*/
public void addItem(Item item) {
this.items.add(item);
}
}
com.example.model.Item
This is the class representing an Order Item. There can be any number of items that are a part of an order. Items are embedded within the Order document in Mongo.
package com.example.model;
import org.bson.types.ObjectId;
/**
* Class representing an order item.
*/
public class Item
{
private ObjectId id;
private String name;
/**
* Constructor.
*/
public Item() {
//
}
/**
* Sets the id of the Item.
* @param id The new id of the Item.
*/
public void setId(ObjectId id) {
this.id = id;
}
/**
* Gets the id of the Item.
* @return The id of the Item.
*/
public ObjectId getId() {
return this.id;
}
/**
* Sets the name of the Item.
* @param name The new name of the Item.
*/
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
/**
* Gets the name of the Item.
* @return The name of the Item.
*/
public String getName() {
return this.name;
}
}
com.example.mongo.ItemConverter
Simple converter class that converts Items to/from Documents.
package com.example.mongo;
import com.example.model.Item;
import org.bson.Document;
/**
* Converts Mongo Documents to/from Items.
*/
public class ItemConverter {
/**
* Convert the passed Item into a Mongo Document.
* @param item The Item that you want to convert into a Mongo Document.
* @return Returns the Document that was created from the passed Item.
*/
public Document convert(Item item) {
Document document = new Document();
document.put("_id", item.getId());
document.put("name", item.getName());
return document;
}
/**
* Convert the passed Mongo Document into an Item.
* @param document The Document that you want to convert into an Item.
* @return Returns the Item that was created from the passed Mongo Document.
*/
public Item convert(Document document) {
Item item = new Item();
item.setId(document.getObjectId("_id"));
item.setName(document.getString("name"));
return item;
}
}
com.example.mongo.ItemCodec
Codec for encoding and decoding Items.

com.example.main.Main
Main class for the app. Here we register the codecs and create our MongoClient.
package com.example.main;
import com.example.model.Item;
import com.example.model.Order;
import com.example.mongo.ItemCodec;
import com.example.mongo.OrderCodec;
import com.mongodb.MongoClient;
import com.mongodb.MongoClientOptions;
import com.mongodb.ServerAddress;
import org.bson.Document;
import org.bson.codecs.Codec;
import org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecRegistries;
import org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecRegistry;
/**
* Main class.
*/
public class Main {
/**
* Main function for the app.
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
CodecRegistry codecRegistry = MongoClient.getDefaultCodecRegistry();
Codec<Document> documentCodec = codecRegistry.get(Document.class);
Codec<Item> itemCodec = new ItemCodec(codecRegistry);
Codec<Order> orderCodec = new OrderCodec(codecRegistry);
codecRegistry = CodecRegistries.fromRegistries(
MongoClient.getDefaultCodecRegistry(),
CodecRegistries.fromCodecs(
documentCodec,
itemCodec,
orderCodec
)
);
MongoClientOptions options = MongoClientOptions.builder().codecRegistry(codecRegistry).build();
MongoClient mongo = new MongoClient(new ServerAddress("localhost", 27018), options);
// Your code here.
}
}
From there you can read/write orders and items to/from Mongo.
