hessian.js
Hessian Serialization 1.0 and 2.0 (base on version 4.0.7) written by pure JavaScript. Support all kind of types in Java, with high performance.
Install
$ npm install hessian.js
Support Types
8 primitive types:
- raw binary data
- boolean
- 64-bit millisecond date
- 64-bit double
- 32-bit int
- 64-bit long
- null
- UTF8-encoded string
3 recursive types:
list
for lists and arraysmap
for maps and dictionariesobject
for objects
one special contruct:
- ref for shared and circular object references
Hessian 2.0 has 3 internal reference maps:
- An object/list reference map.
- An class definition reference map.
- A type (class name) reference map.
Encoder
Tips: you can use with js-to-java to help you write java class in js.
Simple javascript type
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var java = require('js-to-java');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();
encoder.write(1); // int
encoder.write(1.1); // double
encoder.write(1e100); // double
encoder.write(Math.pow(2, 18)); // long
encoder.write(true); // boolean
encoder.write(null); // null
encoder.write('test'); // string
// java base types
encoder.write(java.long(3001010320)); // 3001010320L
encoder.write(java.double(100)); // double
encoder.write(java.array.int([0, 1, 2])); // int[] = {0, 1, 2}
var object = {};
object.prop1 = [1, 2, 3];
object.prop2 = 'string';
object.prop3 = {key: 'value'};
object.prop4 = object; // circular
encoder.write(object); // object
Complex java type
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();
var long = {
$class: 'java.lang.Long',
$: 1
}
encoder.write(long); // long type
var testObject = {
$class: 'com.hessian.TestObject',
$: {
a: 1,
b: 'test',
c: {$class: 'java.lang.Long', $: 123}
}
};
encoder.write(testObject);
Java Generic Map
// java code:
// Map<Long, Integer> map = new HashMap<Long, Integer>();
// map.put(123L, 123456);
// map.put(123456L, 123);
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();
// using es6 Map
var map = new Map();
map.set({ '$class': 'java.lang.Long', '$': 123 }, 123456);
map.set({ '$class': 'java.lang.Long', '$': 123456 }, 123);
encoder.write(map); // or encoder.write({ '$class': 'java.util.HashMap', '$': map })
Consistent Java type
If a type of Class contains a plurality of data, you must ensure that the number of attributes, and each instance of the order is the same!
// Wrong
[
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {b: 22, a: 11}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}}]
// Right
[
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 0}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 11, b: 22, c: 0}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}},
]
Decoder
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var decoder = new hessian.Decoder(buf);
decoder.read(); //return what it is
decoder.readNull();
decoder.readBool();
decoder.readInt();
decoder.readLong();
decoder.readDouble();
decoder.readDate();
decoder.readObect();
decoder.readMap();
decoder.readArray();
decoder.readList();
decoder.readRef();
Simple Usage
hessian 1.0:
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var testObject = {
a: 1,
b: 'string',
c: true,
d: 1.1,
e: Math.pow(2, 40),
f: [1, 2, 3, '4', true, 5],
g: {a: 1, b: true, c: 'string'}
};
var buf;
try {
buf = hessian.encode(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('encode error: ', err.message);
process.exit(1);
}
try {
var res = hessian.decode(buf);
// res.should.eql(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('decode error: ', err.message);
}
hessian 2.0:
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var testObject = {
a: 1,
b: 'string',
c: true,
d: 1.1,
e: Math.pow(2, 40),
f: [1, 2, 3, '4', true, 5],
g: {a: 1, b: true, c: 'string'}
};
var buf;
try {
buf = hessian.encode(testObject, '2.0');
} catch (err) {
console.log('encode error: ', err.message);
process.exit(1);
}
try {
var res = hessian.decode(buf, '2.0');
// res.should.eql(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('decode error: ', err.message);
}
TODO
- more unit test, include test with other language.
- benchmark test.

Hessian 2.0 is organized as a bytecode protocol. A Hessian reader is essentially a switch statement on the initial octet.

About Hessian 2.0 Optimized Decoder
Hessian 2.0 introduced ref to avoid sending duplicated class definition in the same context. Actully, the context
can promote to connection
level in some RPC framework. For example, EADS, Requests using the same connection will not change their class definition.
