[jira] [Commented] (OLINGO-570) Implement OData Json Metadocument Serializer/Parser

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-570?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14352625#comment-14352625 ] 

Riyafa Abdul Hameed commented on OLINGO-570:
--------------------------------------------

Hi,

I am CSE level 2 undergraduate at University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. Currently I am working on several projects on web development which involves working with ajax technology and parsing json files. I am keen to get a thorough understanding of the OData and the Olingo library and start working on implementing OData Json Metadocument parser.

I am quite new to GSOC and would like to find a mentor to guide me through the procedure of submitting an application by next week.

>             Project: Olingo
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: odata4-client, odata4-server
>    Affects Versions: (Java) V4 4.0.0-beta-02

> The Olingo project is currently working on implementing the V4 OData specification published by oasis. The current version of the specification only specifies a metadata document in xml format. This can be problematic on android devices where no native xml parser is available. In a newer version of this specification a new metadata format will be specified in Json.
> The goal of this issue would be to implement a serializer which can create a payload based on the new specification. Afterwards the Olingo client library must be able to consume the Json metadata document by implementing a parser.
> This issue could be implemented by a Student who takes part in the GSoC. The metadata document is already available as an xml format which could give a student a very good entry point to learn more about OData and the Olingo library. Learning opportunities would be about Json payload creation as well as parsing of Json payloads. This would also include understanding the latest OData V4 specification. If you are interested comment this issue or write a mail to dev@olingo.apache.org .
