[jira] [Commented] (CAMEL-10969) JSonSchemaHelper - Json parser should we use json-simple instead

["Claus Ibsen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-10969:
-------------------------------------

The json-simple parser from google is no longer maintained, but a 2.x version is more active and take over by Cliffon Labs at
https://cliftonlabs.github.io/json-simple/

The power of this library is that its a single JAR and has no other dependencies - its small and we can then shade that into camel-core and camel-catalog, and the apt compiler plugin can use it as well.

Then its a little implementation detail, and should not cause classpath issues, as otherwise it would be with a big popular library like jackson does.

There is also Apache Johnzon but its a bigger library, but the good side is that its JSON-P spec implementation and its a sister Apache project.

> We use our own json parser in JSonSchemaHelper in different places as part of the catalog stuff we have done over the last 3-4 years. And as it has expanded to be used in more places than just as in the beginning in apt, we are duplicating some of that code around.
> We could consider shading in json-simple in camel-core and camel-catalog.
> And where its used in apt, maven plugins and elsewhere.
